Which Region of Europe Will You Love Most?
Europe is filled with exciting destinations, each with its own style and vibe. While travelers often focus on just one country as their primary point of exploration, it doesn’t have to be that way. A cruise opens up multiple countries in one monumental vacation, allowing you to experience more cultures, sights and flavors along the way. Make 2022 the year you truly see a new side of the Old World by cruising to one of these fascinating regions.

The Mediterranean
While all of Europe is a delight to explore, the Mediterranean might hold the most highlights in the smallest amount of space. Consider visiting many of these on one vacation: Barcelona’s towering Sagrada Familia, the Colosseum and St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, the ancient walled city of Dubrovnik in Croatia, the blue-domed villages of Santorini, Italy’s Amalfi Coast and more. Along the way, you can savor authentic tapas, pasta, moussaka and gelato, all washed down with regional wines. Each Mediterranean cruise visits a different mix of countries, so work with your travel agent to find the itinerary that checks off the most destinations from your bucket list.

The British Isles
History surrounds you in the British Isles. Home to legendary villages, ancient castles, towering churches and centuries-old colleges, exploring here feels like you’ve stepped back in time in all the best ways. Although the area is rather compact, each port boasts a distinctive flavor and culture. So, whether you’re pub hopping in Dublin, visiting the Titanic Belfast monument in Northern Ireland, hearing the one o’clock gunshot off Edinburgh Castle, strolling across the Scottish Highlands, seeing the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace or simply falling in love with the rolling hills of Ireland, you’ll definitely feel as if you’ve traveled many more miles than you actually have.
The Baltic Sea
While all European cities provide charm and culture, the port cities lining the Baltic shores offer their own distinctive take, making each port a delight to explore. Whether you’re strolling along the acres of parks in Stockholm, hopping on Finland’s highest and fastest roller coaster in the center of Helsinki, soaking up the fairytale atmosphere of Copenhagen’s Tivoli Gardens or cruising along Amsterdam’s UNESCO-listed canals, your experiences will be uniquely yours.
