Cruise to Europe in 2024

What are the benefits of a Europe cruise?

Europe cruises in 2024 are the perfect way for travellers to explore a variety of different European delights – from the picture-postcard canal-lined streets of Amsterdam to the seaside opulence of Cannes. The continent is a veritable smorgasbord of world-class history and culture, countryside and cuisine. Europe is also a prime location for river cruises: travelling along these historic waterways is a whole different ball game to classic ocean cruises.

Cheap European cruises in 2024 are readily available – simply sort your search results by price to see the cheapest options first. Flexibility on dates can make it easier to find affordable options.

What are the best cruise lines to Europe?

What's important when planning a cruise trip to Europe?

To get the most out of your European cruise in 2024, you'll need to choose between exploring cities or the continent's natural wonders. Many cruises, especially river cruises, travel at night, allowing passengers the daytime to stop off and explore. Other cruises, however, focus more on the natural features, spending much of the day at sea surrounded by open waters with scenic mountains and forests in the distance.

What are some of the top Europe cruise destinations?

2024 European cruise destinations vary from Athens to Dubrovnik. River cruises such as Rome cruises are also popular with travellers keen to soak up some history and culture. Given how compact Europe is, you'll likely be able to fit quite a few different cities in a single journey.

When should I go on a Europe cruise?

The best time for a cruise that goes to Europe tends to be either spring or fall when the summer family crowds and winter getaway seekers are gone, and prices are lower. However, travelling during the summer could be the best way to stay warm if you plan to embark on a North Sea cruise. Expedia has plenty of European cruises in summer 2024 to choose from.

How long do European cruises take?

A 2024 cruise to Europe can vary in duration, with a 3-night cruise to Europe typically as easy to find as a 7-day cruise to Europe. For example, a cruise to Piraeus from Civitavecchia can take just 3 nights, including a stop in Naples too. However, cruises that cross the ocean can take more than a month.

What is a luxury cruise to Europe like?

Luxury 2024 European cruises offer exceptional service and indulgence on cruise lines like Oceania and Princess. Take the Riviera, for example: a stunning vessel packed with 6 gourmet restaurants, 11 guest decks and even a selection of 2,000 books in its library. The staterooms offer a full-size bathtub and a twice-daily maid service.

How do I book an all-inclusive cruise to Europe?

To find all-inclusive European cruises in 2024, simply look for cruises that let you book your food, entertainment and more with the initial ticket price.

A honeymoon cruise to Europe is an iconic experience for you and your partner on cruise lines Viking and Regent, where you can explore some of the most romantic cities in the world during the day while the ship travels beneath the stars at night. On the Seven Seas Voyager, you and your partner can enjoy exceptional luxurious service complemented by French cuisine, a casino, hot tubs and cocktails. 2024 Europe cruises offer a myriad of ways to fall in love with each other all over again.

About Cruises to Europe

Europe is a land of breathtaking beauty, cultural charm, fine dining, and rich history. In just one European cruise, you can experience Nordic hospitality in Oslo, stroll around the Colosseum in Rome or take a shore excursion to the Hermitage in St. Petersburg.

This beautiful continent is surrounded by water on its three sides which gives the cruisers incredible opportunities to choose an itinerary that best suits their dream vacation. Your Europe cruise can depart from Barcelona, Copenhagen, Southampton, Le Havre, Hamburg and many other European ports.

With so much to see and do, cruise lines often separate their European itineraries by regions:

Baltic and Scandinavian Cruises

There’s no better way to explore Northern Europe than with a Baltic cruise. Drift through the awe-inspiring fjords of Norway, wander around the fairytale town of Tallinn in Estonia or admire the architecture of St. Petersburg’s canals.

Cruises to the Baltic and Scandinavia are largely limited to the sunny summer months of July and August.

Mediterranean Cruises

The Mediterranean is probably one of the most popular regions in Europe. You can choose to explore the Western Mediterranean by pulling into port in Barcelona or Civitavecchia, taking you to the south of France and Spain. The Eastern Mediterranean may take you to the ancient ruins of Athens, the charming towns of Montenegro and the atmospheric islands of the Cyclades.

Many cruise lines offer itineraries of 7- 10 days or longer, but for those seeking a shorter vacation, MSC and Costa also offer 3-4- or 5-day cruises.

British Isles Cruises

Don’t forget that the glorious, green British Isles also welcome cruise liners throughout the year. Sail past medieval castles, charming coastal towns and spectacular highland vistas. Your Europe cruise could also take you to majestic Iceland, where days ashore promise the chance to glimpse breathtaking waterfalls and dramatic volcanoes.
