Mediterranean Cruises

Whether you love art, history, natural wonders, fine cuisine, or all of the above, a Mediterranean cruise lets you experience something amazing at every stop. From the history-lined canals of Venice to the sun-soaked playgrounds of the French Riviera to the iconic architecture of Spain, our array of award-winning Europe vacations offers something special for every discerning world traveler.

Get up close to historic sites like the ancient Colosseum in Rome, the Acropolis in Athens, and the charming Old City of Dubrovnik. Take stellar photos at the Piazza San Marco in Venice, the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, and the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. See Michelangelo’s remarkable Renaissance artwork on the Sistine Chapel ceiling as you tour Vatican City.

In Portugal, experience the spectacular medieval architecture in Lisbon and taste a variety of Port wines in Porto. Explore our new port-of-call in Italy, Trieste, and its ancient architecture, lively cultural scene, and Venetian-inspired coffeehouses. We’re also returning to Kusadasi, and Istanbul in Turkey.

Some of the most beautiful natural sights you’ll ever see may be the view of the whitewashed buildings and turquoise waters in Santorini or the pastel-colored fishing villages in the Amalfi Coast in Italy. A Mediterranean cruise will most definitely move you.

And make sure to get a true taste of the Med with authentic paella in Spain, a visit to a local patisserie in France, fresh homemade pasta in Italy, and moussaka in Greece.

Discover the Old World with a luxury Mediterranean cruise as only we can do it.

The Mediterranean Sea is so large—965,300 square miles—that it can be broken down into regions, each with its own personality, cuisine, and scenery. The Eastern Mediterranean covers the Holy Land, the Greek Islands, and the countries of the Adriatic Sea. The Western Mediterranean is generally comprised of Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, and Monaco. You can experience it all by booking back-to-back cruises in both regions.

Besides the cities above, Celebrity Cruises also departs from Venice (Ravenna), Italy with its spectacular architecture, canals, and cuisine; Amsterdam, the land of 100 canals and nearly as many world-class museums; Lisbon, the city of seven hills and cobblestone streets; or, Southampton, near London, home to St. Paul’s Cathedral and 350-acre green space Hyde Park.

There’s a wide variety of ways to explore your ports of call. Whether you’re a parent looking for outdoor family entertainment, a foodie out to explore local dishes and wines, or a history aficionado, we have a Mediterranean cruise excursion tailored to your interests.
