The Amerigo Vespucci calls at the port of Tunis

The Amerigo Vespucci, the "most beautiful boat in the world" made a stopover in Tunis where the Italian Ambassador, Lorenzo Fanara, went on board to greet the crew.

"The boat - writes the Italian Embassy in Tunis on its social media - is a floating embassy that promotes the prestige, professionalism and the drive of Italian seafaring."
