John Diorio, Vice President & Managing Director, North America at Celestyal, said: “Our recently unveiled winter Western Mediterranean itineraries on Celestyal Discovery marked an exciting new chapter for the brand, and this new winter season on Celestyal Journey continues that momentum by offering even more choice across the wider Mediterranean.
“We also know how fondly many guests remember our Three Continents sailings, so we’re delighted to bring them back in a refreshed format. The opportunity to experience Europe, Asia and Africa in a single cruise is incredibly special, while the choice of 7- or 14-night voyages gives guests the flexibility to explore in a way that suits them.
“Combining celebrated cities with a diverse mix of culture, history and cuisine, these destination-rich itineraries are exactly the kind of immersive journeys Celestyal does best.
“Over the winter, visitors to Europe can travel at a slower pace and experience fewer crowds, longer stays – including overnights – and great access to the region’s incredible sites.”
