We returned today from Atlantic sunsets Marbella celebrations cruise 5th March2020. Due to the virus the cruise was cancelled after a few days and we set sail for Southampton.. We would like to say that we were treated with the utmost care and kindness by all the crew and staff, not a cross face anywhere though they must have been under a lot of stress. Well done Tui.

Just returned from an amazing two weeks on Marella Celebration around the Caribbean and I cannot rate the trip highly enough. We had the most brilliant time. Cabins perfectly adequate with lots of storage space and a nice size bathroom. Turndown service every evening. Restaurants brilliant especially the Meridien where the service and food was just amazing - never had the same choices in 2 weeks. Entertainment team was fantastic with great shows most nights. Special mention must be made of StrumJam and New Dimensions Trio - really got us in to the holiday mood. And Capt. Alex Downes - what a fantastic guy. Cannot rate the whole experience highly enough.

Messina is a coastal city located in the north-east of Sicily and overlooks the homonymous strait, which separates the region from the rest of the Peninsula.

In Messina you can admire the Duomo, the Astronomical Clock and the rich Regional Museum which houses works by famous artists.
Things to do in Messina, Sicily:
Messina Cathedral
The Cathedral of Messina was consecrated in 1197 and stands in the Piazza del Duomo. Its peculiarity is the different architectural styles that distinguish it: in fact, Romanesque, Norman, Gothic, Neo-Gothic and Baroque elements coexist.
Orologico Astronomico
The Astronomical Clock of Messina is an integral part of the city's Cathedral. It was built in 1933 at the behest of Archbishop Angelo Paino during the restoration of the bell tower and is freely inspired by the one in Strasbourg.

Brindisi
DAY 628 Jul 2020
Time at Port: from 9 AM to 6 PM
Found on the ‘heel’ of Italy, the location of Brindisi has caused it to be known by some as the ‘Gateway to the East’. The 15th century Castello Alfonsino di Brindisi was built to protect the city, and later became a station for the Italian navy. This and the Church of Santa Maria del Casale reveal much of Brindisi’s – and indeed Italy’s – history, the church being of importance during The Crusades. It’s also possible to learn more in the Brindisi Archaeological Museum, which is home to important relics including the Bronze Statues of Brindisi which were only discovered a few decades ago, but are believed to be thousands of years old.
Things to do in Brindisi:
Church of Santa Maria del Casale
Built in the late-13th century by Prince Filippo I of Taranto and his wife, in the year 1310 this church became the setting for trials against the Knights Templar crusaders of Sicily. The tribunal was commissioned by French Pope Clement V, but was quashed just two years later. The building itself showcases Romanesque-gothic architectural styles, and it was made a national monument in 1875.
Castello Alfonsino
This castle is sometimes referred to as Red Castle or Aragones Castle. It’s located on Sant’Andrea Island, and was first constructed in the late 15th century as a defence post to protect the city. A sea fortress was then added in the 16th century, as a base for the military.
Archeological Museum
The Provincial, or Francesco Ribezzo, Archaeological Museum is dedicated to this celebrated archaeologist and scholar who was from this area of Italy. It was founded in 1884, and today plays host to an impressive array of sculptures, tablets, coins, and other artefacts including the ancient Bronze Statues of Brindisi, which were discovered by divers in 1992 in the nearby Punta del Serrone.
