From the vineyards of Bordeaux and the museums of Florence to the architecture of Barcelona and the antiquaties of Istanbul. Explore the Baltic Sea with itineraries featuring three full days in St Petersburg, or embark on an adventure to the North Cape. No other cruise line explores Northern Europe and the Mediterranean with the same depth and luxury as does Crystal, and when you book before 28Feb14 you’ll enjoy the incredible Book Now Fares. 

Aboard Crystal Symphony  and Crystal Serenity, the world’s #1 and #2 mid-sized cruise ships, respectively, chosen by the readers of the Conde Nast Traveler, you can choose from 25 destination-rich itineraries, including some of Europe’s most intriguing ports, from Venice to Visby. 

  • Mediterranean – From the French Riviera and Amalfi Coast to the Greek Isles and Dalmation Coast, Crystal Serenity takes guests to lands of ancient wonder, stunning beauty and rich hospitality. There are ten cruise itineraries departing from April to September. 
  • Northern Europe – Crystal Symphony explores northern capitals laced with intricate waterways, gleaming bridges, modern design and regal history. There are six cruise itineraries in Northern Europe, departures are from June – August.
  • Western Europe – both ships embark on journeys around the Iberian Peninsula, the Normandy Coast and into the heart of France, exploring the treasures of Bilbao, the souks of Casablanca, the wines of Portugal and more. Seven departures are available in April and June-September. 
  • Great Britain – the rolling glens and magical lochs of Ireland, Scotland and England sparkle with rugged beauty and mystic charm, and Crystal Symphony explores these enchanting landscapes on two voyages in August. 
With an overnight stay on every voyage – in some cases up to three overnights on a single cruise – you will have exceptional opportunities to explore world-renowned cities including Amsterdam, Barcelona, Bordeaux, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Istanbul, Monte Carlo, Reykjavik, Sorrento, Stockholm, St-Tropez and Venice. Plus, you’ll enjoy maiden calls at destinations such as Ferrol and Santander, Spain; Oban, Scotland; Londonderry and Galway, Ireland; and Saint Helier (Jersey) in the Channel Islands.
