Save 76% on a European cruise!

Cruised there, done that? I spied an impressive European cruise deal not only for the cruise rate but for the ship’s itinerary.

Per person rates start from $1,799 for an Inside cabin on the 7-night September 12 sailing from Monte Carlo, Monaco to Barcelona — that’s a 76% savings off the brochure rate. An Oceanview cabin is just $100 more per person; Balcony cabin from $3,199.

The ships itinerary calls at Antibes, France; Portofino, Italy; Pisa/Tuscany (Livorno), Italy; Ajaccio, Corsica, France; Palma de Mallorca and Valencia, Spain and returns to Barcelona.

Rates include all non-alcoholic beverages, specialty restaurant dining, and unlimited Internet. Also included is a choice of one of the following: beverage package; a $400 shipboard credit — or — four shore excursions. Airfare is additional.

CruiseCritic.com named Oceania Sirena Best for Dining; Best for Fitness and Recreation and Best for Service in 2018.

Although staterooms are small by comparison, cabins feature Oceania’s signature Ultra Tranquility Bed (covers from queen to twins) and 1,000-count linens. There’s a seating area with small sofa and a small end table at dining height and closet space is plentiful.

Oceania’s Sirena is a great ship if small size matters and if you want a cozy and elegant yet unpretentious home base while you spend long days exploring ports of call.
