Pasta, Piazzas & Parties: See Italy’s Coast with Us

Italy is every bit as beautiful as the men who live there. So we thought it deserving of some special attention on our Sicily, Naples, Cannes & More Cruise, setting sail from Rome (Civitavecchia) on August 22-31, 2026. Join our gay group aboard a Virgin Voyages vessel for ten days at six ports around the coast of Italy with eclectic entertainment, group dinners, parties, and plenty of surprises aboard too.

The first stop is Catania, the jewel of Sicily and star of White Lotus, where dramatic landscapes meet irresistible charm. Next, we head north to Naples, a lively city filled with UNESCO-listed historic streets, bustling piazzas, and rich Baroque treasures. From there, it’s on to Ajaccio in Corsica, the French-speaking island that blends Mediterranean beauty with Napoleonic heritage. Then we’ll soak up the glamour of Cannes, France’s sophisticated playground of the rich and famous. Finally, we return to Italy at Livorno, the gateway to two Tuscan gems: Pisa and Florence, before looping back to Rome.

Get on board with us as we give Italy the spicy loving it deserves!

Gay Travel Guide to Palm Springs

Palm Springs has been an LGBTQ+ getaway for decades, dating back to the glamorous days of Hollywood in the early 1930s. Actors working in Hollywood would escape to the oasis, just a two-hour drive away, to let loose and mingle with other closeted members of the entertainment industry. Today, Palm Springs may have a reputation as a destination primarily for middle-aged or retired visitors, but don’t be fooled, it remains a playground for all generations.
