One of the nicest places for a cruise stop is Portofino, which can be combined with the islands of Sardinia and Elba. I went there on the Star Clipper, a four masted barquentine which sailed out of Cannes, which gives you a wonderful - and very different - cruise experience. I've also cruised there with Silversea, a totally 6 star line, of which I remarked at the time "I've never been looked after better". I've also stopped at Taormina (Sicily), Salerno, Sorrento, Rome (Civitavecchia), Naples (for things like Capri and the Blue Grotto) and I remember a somewhat less attractive stop at Livorno. Highly recommended - enjoy your cruise.
