Cruise Planning

Bologna to Ravenna Cruise Port

Bologna is a culture destination — Porto Corsini is where the ship meets the sea.

Bologna lies west of Ravenna on the Emilia-Romagna plain. Reaching Porto Corsini means continuing past Ravenna's mosaic centre to the Adriatic coast terminal.

Road transfer is the usual cruise-day approach — allow for autostrada traffic around Bologna and Rimini corridors.

Rail links connect Bologna and Ravenna; add taxi time from Ravenna station to Porto Corsini.

Do not confuse a Bologna excursion on port day with staying in Bologna the night before — they are different planning problems.

Tips for cruise passengers

  • If you sailed a Bologna excursion, you already experienced this road corridor — reverse it only with generous timing
