Mediterranean cruises
Mediterranean cruises include visits to the major port cities located on the northern shores of the Mediterranean Sea.
These will include countries like Spain, France, Italy, Monaco, Greece and Turkey
as well as the islands of Malta, Crete and Sicily, while some cruises
might also include stops in Egypt.
The seasons for Mediterranean cruises are April to November when the weather is generally sunny and
temperatures mild. You will find many cruise lines, sailing the
Mediterranean, like the Radisson Seven Seas, which is a luxury carrier in the small cruise line category.
A small number of passengers, from just under 200 to 700 (based on individual ship capacity) are treated to personal service by a cruise line that has been selected
to be the “World’s Best Small Cruise Line” and given a six-star
rating.
The cruise line’s special accommodations include two 700 passenger all-balcony suites ships, Seven Seas Voyager and Seven Seas Mariner, and one 490 passenger all-suites ship, Seven Seas Navigator. The Radisson Diamond is another unique ship due to its twin hull design. The Radisson Diamond
can easily carry 350 guests in sheer luxury.

The Seven Seas Voyager and the Radisson Diamond excel
in Mediterranean cruises, departing from or terminating at ports such as Rome, Venice, Athens, Monte Carlo, Barcelona, and Istanbul, normally for a 7-night cruise. These cruises stop at some of the most famous European cities that occur between the start and end points such as Florence, Marseilles, France; St. Tropez, Dubrovnik, Croatia; the island of Sicily; and
many others.
Crystal Cruises is another award-winning six-star cruise line,
which was named “World’s Best” in cruise line service by a reader’s poll.
Crystal cruises have also been awarded Crystal “Best Large-Ship Cruise Line”
as well as “World’s Best Large - Ship Cruise Line”, both titles being given for the past nine years. Crystal Cruises boasts “extraordinary cuisine” coupled with impeccable service.
Crystal offers a large number of 7 to 12-night Mediterranean cruises, many with romantic overtones.
A fine example is the Renaissance Reflection cruise, which originates in Lisbon and stops in Barcelona, Cannes and Monte Carlo. The Italian Treasures cruise spends seven nights on the west coast of Italy. The Path of the Phoenicians is a twelve-night odyssey from Athens to Istanbul followed by stops at the historically famous Greek islands of Kusadasi, Rhodes, and Santorini before terminating at Venice.
