About Mediterranean Cruises
Your cruise from the UK reaches the Mediterranean Sea at Gibraltar, passing through the narrow straits separating Europe from North Africa. Noted for its famous rock and its colony of apes, Gibraltar has a very British feel.
Along the coast of Spain call at flamboyant Barcelona, with its unfinished symbol of the Sagrada Familia and the amazing shapes of the Gaudi sculptures and buildings. In complete contrast are the beaches and towns of Mallorca and Ibiza.
For that touch of glamour, include Cannes, St Tropez or Monte Carlo on your cruise itinerary. These smart French resorts on the French Riviera have their own unique appeal.
Call at Livorno on the Italian coast, gateway to see some of the finest works of art and architecture in the world in Pisa and Florence. Other popular ports are Civitavecchia, just a stone’s throw from the ancient city of Rome, and Naples, close to the amazingly preserved ruins of Pompeii.
Cruise the Adriatic Sea and call at the Greek island of Corfu, sail into beautiful Kotor Bay in Montenegro, then visit the ancient Croatian walled town of Dubrovnik before reaching the unique canal city of Venice. See the major sights including St Mark's Cathedral and the Doge's Palace.
Longer cruises from the UK may visit the beautiful Greek islands of lively Mykonos, picture-postcard Santorini and historic Rhodes.
