Why this sailing feels special

This itinerary keeps the focus on the Mediterranean. Most mornings begin in a new port and most evenings end back in the comfort of the ship. The result feels full without requiring constant packing and hotel changes.

1

More time ashore

The cruise visits Sicily, Croatia, Montenegro, Greece and Turkey with only two full sea days.

2

Istanbul after dark

The overnight stay leaves time for dinner in the city and another morning to explore before the ship departs.

3

More included

Shore excursions, specialty dining, beverages, gratuities, Wi-Fi and valet laundry are already part of the cruise fare.

A lovely detail: The ship stays in Istanbul overnight, so there is time to see the skyline lit across the water without watching the clock through dinner.

A Mediterranean itinerary with incredible ports

The route moves from Malta through the Adriatic and Aegean before finishing in Athens. These are the ports people tend to talk about long after they return home.
