Med Grandeur Cruise Sale

Royal Caribbean International Grandeur of the Seas Med cruises are back by popular demand, and even bigger and better than last year. The ship has will undergo an extensive refit in May this year with refreshed public areas on board and new restaurants, among other things. When you add longer, brand new itineraries from Venice at such low prices, these summer holidays become irresistible.

Venice is one of the most popular cities to visit in the Med due to its unique charm, elegance and ambiance. The café and bars are full of life and there are lots of interesting shops and boutiques. Saint Marks Square and the Rialto Bridge are iconic photo opportunities and there are lots of museums and churches to visit too. Perhaps take a Gondola ride through the tranquil canals or take the cheaper Vaparetto water bus through the Grand Canal from Saint Marks Square, Under the Rialto Bridge to Piazziale Roma to get a true flavor of this ancient city.

Venice is ideally placed to visit the Adriatic and the Greek isles with some memorable ports of call such as the ancient walled city of Dubrovnik with its cobbled streets and colourful fishing boats bobbing in the harbour. Santorini is a photographer’s paradise with the whitewashed capital of Thira perched on the edge of the Caldera, which is the remains of the ancient volcano which was said to have destroyed Atlantis. Crete is the largest of the Greek Isles and the most historic, being home to the Minoans, one of the first civilisations in the Med which rivaled ancient Egypt, dating from 5000 BC.
