Costa Cruise Lines’ heritage of excellence began in 1854, when Costa was founded in Genoa, Italy as an olive oil export company. Nearly a century later, Costa inaugurated luxurious transatlantic cruises; it was here that Costa’s tradition of service and warm Italian hospitality truly began. By 1959, Costa launched the world’s first Caribbean cruises, and by the late 1960s Costa introduced “fly and sail” programs. In 1997, Costa Cruises became the distinctly international brand of Carnival Corporation and a member of the World’s Leading Cruise Lines. Much has changed in the world of cruise travel over the years. But one thing hasn’t changed: Costa’s special brand of quality and personal attention known worldwide as Cruising Italian Style. Costa offers a vacation that embodies a uniquely Italian passion for life that makes Costa different from any other cruise experience. Costa Cruises takes great pride in providing a true European experience that’s 100 percent authentic. Guests will meet people from around the world and enjoy the love, laughter and la dolce vita – the sweet life – and what we call Amore. Your clients will love everything about their Costa cruise, just as so many others have – for more than 64 years. Costa continues to offer guests revolutionary onboard innovations and new travel opportunities. Costa’s fleet is the youngest, largest and most-advanced fleet cruising in Europe, all known for their progressive architecture, stylish design, world-class entertainment and delectable dining options. |
