Oceania Cruises Announces Exciting New European Itineraries for 2025

Oceania Cruises, renowned for its focus on culinary excellence and immersive travel experiences, has unveiled its new lineup of European voyages for 2025. The range of sailings, from six to 34 days, promises an unforgettable journey through Europe’s most scenic and culturally rich destinations.
Oceania’s elegant boutique ships will navigate an array of stunning locales, from charming islands and dramatic fjords to popular resort towns and vibrant cities. The cruises emphasize deep engagement with local cultures and exceptional culinary experiences.
Among the highlights for 2025 is the debut of Oceania's newest vessel, Allura™, which will embark on its inaugural voyage from Trieste, Italy, in mid-July. The ship will then sail through the eastern and western Mediterranean during its first season. Joining Allura will be Vista™ and Marina™, which will explore the quieter early season spots in Spain, Portugal, and Greece before heading to the British Isles, Iceland, and Scandinavia in the peak summer months.
For those preferring a more intimate cruising experience, Oceania’s 670-guest Nautica™ will traverse the Mediterranean, Adriatic, and Aegean Seas. Meanwhile, Sirena™ will navigate Northern Europe, and Insignia will offer unique voyages to Iceland. These smaller ships are set to visit less frequented ports like Lulea and Lysekil in Sweden and Vaasa in Finland, providing a truly exclusive experience.
Frank A. Del Rio, President of Oceania Cruises, expressed his excitement about the new offerings. "We are thrilled to present such a diverse selection of European sailings aboard our remarkable ships. The arrival of Allura, alongside Vista, in one of the most captivating cruise regions is incredibly exciting. Our well-traveled guests are sure to enjoy exploring Europe’s hidden gems and creating lasting memories."
Travelers will have ample opportunities to explore Europe’s wonders through a variety of immersive shore excursions. New for 2025 is an exclusive Culinary Discovery Tour in Palma, Mallorca, which includes a visit to the vibrant Olivar Market and a journey to the Treuer olive farm. Participants will then enjoy a Spanish cooking class aboard the ship, featuring ingredients sourced from the market and farm.
Oceania Cruises continues to offer a wide range of shore excursions designed to cater to diverse interests. From culinary experiences and local cultural explorations to sustainable travel and adventure tours, guests can personalize their journey with options such as Go Local, Go Green, and Beyond Blueprints. A new addition, "Capture the Moment," will provide photography enthusiasts with tips and techniques to capture stunning images while exploring Europe’s picturesque landscapes.
