Go to the wet site for Costa and read their requirements for passports and Visas. When you go to the web site click on travel documents required and there is a link for Visa requirements.

When we went to Spain and Italy via cruise ship we did not need a Visa. In fact I have never needed a Visa for any country visited by cruise ship. But to be on the safe side check out their web site, or better yet call and explain and get an axact answer.

I have taken costa over the summer and the cruise line provides you with a card for on board purchases only but when you leave the ship for expeditions or what not, you need other forms of payment, like a visa

TUNISIA (TN)

----I would call the cruise line directly. It looks like you are required to have a visa since you are from India, but they may give them onboard and only the cruiseline or your Travel agent will know this information. If you travel agent continues to be no help I would contact a supervisor of that agency.
