Best of the Mediterranean

May 4-15, 2013

Experience some of the most adored eastern Mediterranean cities and ports as you sail aboard Oceania Cruises’ newest ship, the graceful and alluring Riviera. Begin with an extra day in Venice to savor this magical city of canals and bridges before setting off on your Mediterranean voyage to the colorful European lands of Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, Greece and Turkey. Arrive in Koper, Slovenia, and walk its streets framed by grand architecture from past centuries, or take in the nearby Postojna Caves and the amazing Predjama Castle nestled in a cliff. See Croatia’s walled city of Dubrovnik, where centuries of Roman, Venetian and Slavic dominance intermingled over the centuries to create this red-tiled jewel. In Montenegro, explore the pink-paved streets that wind through Kotor, a medieval town enclosed by impressive walls. Sail to Greece for a blended experience of glorious green nature and lovely quaint villages on Corfu; the contrasts of Monemvasia, with a medieval Lower Town and an Upper Town in glorious ruin; and the stunningly whitewashed hillside towns of Santorini. Then plunge backward in time to Ephesus, Turkey, famed worldwide for remnants of its ancient past like the Library of Celsus and the Temple of Artemis.
