Stepping aboard Crystal Serenity instantly conjures a sense of nostalgic charm, transporting you to an era defined by timeless elegance and spacious luxury. I experienced this ambiance on a classic Mediterranean itinerary—six days sailing from Rome to Barcelona.

Last summer, I took a luxury Mediterranean cruise, exploring Greek and Roman ruins. Over 12 days, I followed the paths of emperors and philosophers, enjoying gourmet dining and plush accommodations. If you dream of experiencing history in comfort, this journey unfolds time at spectacular sites.

Spending Christmas 2024 on the Silver Spirit cruise in the Indian Ocean was unforgettable. We departed Mahe, Seychelles, visited Nosy Be and Nosy Kombo for wildlife and cuisine, explored Stone Town and the Freddie Mercury Museum in Zanzibar, and ended in Praslin, Seychelles, relaxing on Anse Lazio beach and hiking Vallée de Mai with Coco de Mer palms and diverse birdlife.
