This is a great cruise for those who want some winter sun and some cultural instruction. Fred Olsen’s Balmoral has a Wonders of the Ancient World cruise that lasts 25 days and sails from Dover, so no pesky flights to connect to the ship for UK travellers. The sailing date is 5th November.
The cruise visits Almeria in Spain, then Villefranche in France, Civitavecchia for Rome, then Katakolon and Piraeus for Athens, Alanya in Turkey; Limassol in Cyprus; Alexandria in Egypt; Sfax and La Goulette where there’s a fantastic excursion to Carthage, visiting the Punic and Roman remains of an ancient city that was one of the most powerful in the western Mediterranean. Then Lisbon, Portugal before returning to Dover. Prices start at £1,099 per person, with two people sharing an inside cabin.
