11-Night Mediterranean - Eastern Cruise on Celebrity Ascent
There are two very distinct regions of the Mediterranean - the eastern and the western. The eastern region incorporates a range of exciting and slightly less frequented cruising destinations including Greece, Turkey, Egypt and the Adriatic coastline. Within this region you will find enchanting cultures, welcoming people and delicious cuising as well as a myriad of ancient artefacts and landmarks which offer a window in time to a civilisation long lost.
Book with a professional travel advisor and you may unlock more than what appears in a standard online search. Depending on the supplier and trip, your advisor may have access to preferred or agency-negotiated group rates, special promotions, upgrades, onboard or resort credits, and other added-value benefits that are not always available through direct booking.
During our consultation, we may ask for a few details—such as your country or state of residence, ZIP code, age eligibility, military status, past-guest history, or loyalty memberships. These details can help us identify fares and benefits you may qualify for and compare them against publicly available options.
Not every offer applies to every traveler, and availability varies by supplier, destination, sailing, travel dates, and eligibility. But the more we know about your trip and the qualifications that may apply to you, the more thoroughly we can search for opportunities to enhance your vacation and help you secure the best available overall value not just the first price you see online.

Itinerary Overview
📍
Day 1 · Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy
Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy
Depart 5:00 pm
The port of Civitavecchia is the gateway to The Eternal City, where all roads lead. Mad traffic careens past monuments of the great civilizations of the past. You will want to see it all: the soaring inspiration of St. Peter's, the Vatican and the Sistine Chapel; the flow of life along the Spanish Steps, the Coliseum, the Via Veneto and Trevi Fountain. Be sure to leave time for la dolce vita in one of the piazzas.

Istanbul, Turkey
Arrive 2:00 pm
Once called Constantinople, the former capital of the Byzantine Empire is the only city in the world to straddle two continents: Europe and Asia. This is the Golden Horn, the door between East and West, and your first vision of its domes and minarets is unforgetable. Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and Sultan treasures in Topkapi Palace await - as does the Grand Bazaar, laden with carpets, beaten brass and spices from afar.

Day 8 · Santorini (Thira), Greece
Santorini (Thira), Greece
Arrive 7:00 am · Depart 10:00 pm
With its steep volcanic flanks looming straight up from the sea, and the tiny white village of Thira clinging high atop the cliffs, Santorini is perhaps the most breathtaking and legendary of all the Greek Isles. To the south is Akrotiri, where recent Minoan excavations support the theories that Santorini might be the fabled lost continent of Atlantis.
📍
Day 9 · Mykonos, Greece
Mykonos, Greece
Arrive 7:00 am · Depart 6:00 pm
The narrow passageways of Mykonos are a twisted maze of whitewashed houses, miniature churches, lazy windmills, and tiny cafes serving up Greek specialties. Sample the freshest squid or lobster just snatched from the blue Aegean Sea, or shop for typical flokati rugs.
