An Emerald Cruises itinerary is a masterpiece of cultural immersion and leisurely discovery. The 2026 Mediterranean season is rich with voyages that connect you to the soul of each destination. Glide through the ancient Corinth Canal, a feat of engineering, on a 12-day journey from Athens. Explore the whitewashed villages of Mykonos and Santorini, or step back in time at the UNESCO World Heritage site of Delos. You can discover the secrets of the Cave of the Apocalypse on Patmos or wander through the historic site of Bodrum’s Mausoleum of Halicarnassus. Each stop is an invitation to engage your senses, from guided tours of historic landmarks with EmeraldPLUS experiences to invigorating hikes and bike rides with EmeraldACTIVE excursions.

Where indulgence meets adventure

Life on board is a perfect balance of rejuvenation and excitement. The innovative Marina Platform at the yacht's stern lowers to sea level, creating your own sanctuary for aquatic fun. Plunge into the crystal-clear waters for a swim, try your hand at paddleboarding, or feel the thrill of a SEABOB water scooter. For moments of pure bliss, the Elements Spa & Wellness Centre awaits. Indulge in a pampering treatment, detoxify in the infrared sauna, or find your Zen in the salt therapy lounge. As evening descends, enjoy nightly entertainment in the stylish Amici Bar & Lounge or savour a cocktail at the Sky Bar, sharing stories with loved ones as the stars blanket the Mediterranean sky.

Get ready for a Mediterranean summer, the Seabourn way

02 October 2026

There are plenty of ways to see the Mediterranean, but arriving by small ship can reveal a very different side of it. With Seabourn, a summer voyage can take you from celebrated cities and islands to smaller harbours and coastal towns that don’t feature on every Mediterranean cruise itinerary. One day might bring the whitewashed streets of a Greek island, the next an ancient archaeological site, a colourful local market, or a yacht harbour tucked along the French or Italian Riviera.

Beyond the magic: Why a Disney cruise is the perfect holiday for every generation

01 September 2026

When you think of a Disney cruise, you might expect a holiday designed first and foremost for children. So, when Head Office colleague Steve Hawker booked a cruise on Disney Dream for his three young children, he expected them to have the holiday of a lifetime. What he didn't expect was that the rest of the family would be just as enchanted. Travelling as a group of 13 across three generations, the experience quickly became far more than a children's holiday. From the moment their family was announced on board to the sound of Disney's famous horn fanfare, it was clear this was a cruise designed to bring everyone together, no matter their age.
