For the adventurous cruiser, there are exotic ports in Turkey, Croatia, Egypt, and Morocco. Places like Istanbul and Casablanca will excite and intrigue you, while Egypt will astonish you with the ancient pyramids of Giza. On a Mediterranean cruise, your adventurous side can revel in the hiking and biking terrains, or go spelunking in some of the most extraordinary caves on the planet.

And when it comes to food and wine, a luxury Mediterranean cruise brings you to some of the most desirable places to indulge your senses. Savor Viognier from the Rhone Valley in one port and sip Cesanese with Romans in the next. (EA Hot Tip: Rome is just a couple of hours north of Naples which means… PIZZA!!) The Med is also perfect for those who want to relax and be pampered. Indulge in spa treatments and thermal Roman baths or enjoy hiking and biking terrains. Your inner child can embark on a Christmas river cruise, and let’s not forget just how romantic Europe is. Combine that European romance with the beauty and charm of the Mediterranean Sea, and voila! Love is in the air!
