Oceania Cruises is spotlighting an array of 2025 Europe sailings, ranging from six to 34 days. The luxury operator will offer a series of voyages to idyllic islands, dramatic fjords, European resort towns, and bustling cities. In the coming season, Oceania will position Vista, Allura, Marina, Nautica, Insignia, and Sirena in Europe. 

Allura, the newest ship coming to the Oceania fleet, will set sail from Trieste, Italy, on its maiden voyage in mid-July before a series of Eastern and Western Mediterranean voyages. 

Allura’s sister ship, Vista, alongside Marina, will spend the early season in Spain, Portugal, and Greece, before heading north to the British Isles, Iceland, and Scandinavia for the height of the summer. 

The 670-guest Nautica will explore the Mediterranean, Adriatic, and Aegean Seas throughout the summer of 2025. Sirena will head to Northern Europe, and Insignia will offer journeys to Iceland. Offering a more intimate onboard experience, these smaller ships will sail port collector voyages to lesser-visited stops like Lulea and Lysekil in Sweden and the Finnish port of Vaasa. 

“We are thrilled to have this rich line-up of Europe sailings on such a wonderful choice of ships for next year. We cannot wait to welcome Allura to the family in July; to have her, and her sister, Vista, which launched to global acclaim last year, in one of the most intriguing and well-loved cruise regions of the world at the same time is so exciting,” stated Frank A. Del Rio, President of Oceania Cruises. “Europe has always been a favorite for our well-traveled and curious guests, who eagerly seek to explore its hidden gems and create new memories aboard our elegant ships.”

Guests sailing with Oceania will have even more opportunities to discover Europe's natural wonders and unique local culture with hundreds of small-group, immersive shore excursions to choose from on each sailing. Among the highlights is an exclusive Culinary Discovery Tour in Palma, Mallorca. This Chef-led tour includes a visit to the Olivar Market to pick produce, followed by a trip to the Treuer olive farm. Afterward, participants on this tour will enjoy a Spanish cooking class aboard the ship, utilizing the fresh seafood, cheese, fruits, vegetables, and olive oil gathered earlier in the day. 

Following is a look at Oceania Cruises’ 2025 Europe season highlights by ship.
