Steeped in history, Mediterranean cruise holidays make for a fascinating insight into different cultures, past and present. Eastern Mediterranean cruises are your chance to gaze up at the Pyramids, discover the secreted fortress city of Petra, wander the well-word streets of the 3,000 year old city of Istanbul and pay pilgrimage to Israel’s Holy Land. Sometimes frenetic, sometimes blissfully serene and spiritual, this region is full of contrasts, promising a thought-provoking journey.
Eastern Med cruises journey to the Eastern edge of the Mediterranean Sea, some Eastern Mediterranean cruises even traverse the Aegean Sea and the Bosphorus Straiten route to destinations in the Black Sea including Odessa and Yalta in the Ukraine.
