WHY IT RATES: Oceania Cruises gives guests more of each destination with in-depth itineraries and overnight stays. -Janeen Christoff, TravelPulse Senior Writer
Oceania Cruises, the world's leading culinary- and destination-focused cruise line unveiled the new Europe & The Americas Collection of itineraries for 2020. These new voyages open for bookings on October 17, 2018.
"These incredible voyages invite travelers to experience more imaginative adventures and explore more of Europe and North America's most fascinating destinations," stated Bob Binder, president and CEO of Oceania Cruises.
Depth and Diversity
Sailing to more than 400 ports across Europe and the Americas, the brand's six intimate and elegant ships, carrying only 684 or 1,250 guests, showcase the splendor of the Mediterranean, the diversity of Europe's western wine country, the storied history of the Baltics, British Isles and Norway, and the majesty of Alaska, Iceland, Greenland and the Canadian Maritimes.
As the pioneer of destination-focused cruising, voyages spend more time in port often arriving at sunset and departing in the evenings, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the culture, history, and culinary highlights of the destinations visited. To allow even more time for travelers to explore, more than 50 of the voyages feature overnight stays.
