Mediterranean Cruises

Rome, the Riviera and Barcelona in one trip โ€” and you only unpack once

Seeing Italy, France and Spain on your own means trains, transfers and a new hotel every couple of nights. On a Mediterranean cruise the ship handles all of that overnight, so each morning you simply step off in a new city. It's one of the most efficient โ€” and relaxing โ€” ways to see Europe.

Why cruise to Mediterranean?

  • Ancient sites close to port

    Rome's Colosseum, the ruins of Pompeii and the Leaning Tower of Pisa are all classic Mediterranean shore days.

  • Coastline worth the trip

    The Amalfi Coast, Cinque Terre and the French Riviera are some of the most photographed shorelines in the world.

  • Regional food at every stop

    Neapolitan pizza, Sicilian cannoli, Provenรงal rosรฉ and Catalan tapas โ€” dinner ashore is part of the experience.

  • Western or Eastern routes

    Western sailings cover Italy, France and Spain; Eastern sailings head to Greece, Croatia, Montenegro and Turkey.

  • Predictable costs

    Accommodation, most meals and transport between cities are included, which helps in Europe's pricey summer season.

Who sails to Mediterranean

Questions about Mediterranean cruises

Is summer a bad time to go?

Not bad โ€” just hot and crowded, with peak fares. Shoulder months give you warm weather, calmer ports and better value.

Do US travelers need anything besides a passport?

Your passport should be valid at least six months past your return date. Europe's entry rules for visitors are changing, so we'll remind you to check current requirements before you sail.

Can I see Rome or Florence in one day?

Yes, but both are 1โ€“1.5 hours from port. A guided ship excursion handles transport and guarantees the ship waits if traffic is bad.
