Oceania Cruises Unveils Enchanting 2025 Mediterranean Sailings

Oceania Cruises, the world-renowned culinary- and destination-focused cruise line, is setting a new course for luxury travel with its captivating array of Mediterranean sailings scheduled for 2025. This latest offering aims to whisk guests away on unforgettable journeys across the Mediterranean, Aegean, and Adriatic seas, blending the allure of iconic cities with the charm of hidden coastal gems. The cruise line has meticulously curated voyages that range from nine-day escapes to grand 56-day adventures on board its illustrious Marina and Nautica vessels, ensuring a rich tapestry of cultural and scenic diversity awaits every traveler.

The Marina and Nautica, jewels in Oceania Cruises' crown, will steer guests towards a plethora of enchanting destinations. From the historic grandeur of Athens, Barcelona, Istanbul, Rome, and Lisbon, to the unspoiled beauty of lesser-known ports such as Tirana and Sarande in Albania, Trapani in Sicily, and Sibenik in Croatia, these sailings promise an exploration of both celebrated and secluded locales. Moreover, the journeys are designed to cater to a variety of interests, offering immersive shore excursions that range from adventurous volcanic tours in Santorini to serene explorations of Europe's southernmost fjord, Boka Bay, in Montenegro.

In anticipation of the 2025 season, Marina is poised to undergo a significant refurbishment in May 2024. The planned enhancements include the introduction of two new dining options and an expansion of its poolside ice cream parlor, alongside a full rejuvenation of the public areas and Penthouse Suites. The smaller, yet equally luxurious Nautica will continue to boast its refined amenities and services, following a comprehensive update in 2022. These ships are not just modes of travel, but destinations in themselves, offering unparalleled luxury and comfort.

The Marina will embark on several noteworthy voyages, including a nine-day sailing from Barcelona to Athens, an 11-day journey tracing the Aegean Sea from Istanbul to Athens, and a splendid 21-day expedition from Athens to Santa Cruz de Tenerife in the Canary Islands. For those seeking more intimate adventures, the Nautica will offer a 12-day voyage from Istanbul to Athens, a 14-day exploration from Athens to Rome, and a mesmerizing 14-day trip from Athens to Valletta. Additionally, guests can opt for grand voyages, such as a 46-day round trip from Rome or a 56-day odyssey from Rome to Miami, providing an extensive and in-depth cruising experience.

Oceania Cruises is committed to elevating the luxury cruise experience, delivering its 'Simply MORE Value' promise. This includes an array of complimentary offerings such as roundtrip airfare, airport transfers, vintage Champagnes, premium wines, international beers during lunch and dinner, and a shore excursion credit of up to $1,400 per stateroom. By continually redefining luxury cruising, Oceania Cruises invites seasoned travelers and those new to cruising alike to explore the majestic Mediterranean in unparalleled comfort and style.
