Costa Cruises was founded in Genoa in 1854, active in the commerce of fabrics and olive oil with Sardinia. The fleet, during the XIX Century, expanded and the first ships are named after the members of the family. The real first cruise ship, Franca C., is dated back to 1968 and marks a change in the conception of holiday, proposing many itineraries already at that time. During the 80’s, the cruise ship changes and becomes a giant hotel on the sea, improving the entertaining activities that become accessible to everyone. On the ships, restaurants, theaters, bars and casinos multiply to meet the tastes of all kinds of travelers. Today Costa Cruises is the n. 1 cruise company in Europe. Since 2003 is part of Carnival Corporation & plc group, the biggest cruise giant. Its ships, besides the Italian flag, maintain the characteristics and the love for details typical of our Country: from the furniture to the wine-grastronomic selection, Costa Cruises is symbol of elegance and quality and it is constantly improving, with a wide range of itineraries, cabins, entertaining programs and shows.
