Frequently Asked Questions

May through October is the core season, with July and August the warmest and busiest. Late spring and early fall usually offer comfortable weather, calmer ports and better prices.

The western Med leans toward Spain, France and Italy’s big-name cities, while the eastern Med features the Greek Isles and the Adriatic. First-timers often start western for the iconic capitals, then return east for the islands.

Barcelona, Civitavecchia for Rome, and Piraeus for Athens host the most departures, with additional sailings from Marseille, Genoa and Venice. Flying into the embarkation city a day early is the safest plan.

Seven-night loops are the classic format, though itineraries run from quick getaways to grand voyages of two weeks or more that combine the eastern and western basins.

Many nationalities can visit Schengen countries visa-free for short stays, but requirements vary by passport and by itinerary, especially for stops outside the EU. Verify entry rules for every country on your route before you sail.
