Adriatic & Mediterranean Grand Tour – Split & Dubrovnik
About this cruise
If you've got 11 nights to work with, this sailing from Ravenna on September 27, 2027 through Split, Dubrovnik and Bar, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. You wind up in Civitavecchia (Rome), so it's worth planning a night or two there. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Crossing 3 borders through the Western Mediterranean: Croatia, Montenegro and Italy. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Messina stands out. It's Sicily's gateway to Mount Etna and Taormina. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Celebrity Constellation takes the food seriously, with 9 restaurants to choose from. 5 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. This one's for people who really want to switch off. No half measures. Block out the calendar. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. All in all, it's a solid trip.
