Holidays to the Mediterranean

Explore

With sunshine, ancient history and some of the best coastlines in the world, it's no wonder the Mediterranean is such a popular destination.

From North African countries, such as Morocco and Egypt, to classic European countries, such as Italy and Malta, the Med encompasses a vast and beautifully diverse region - perfect for exploration.

Known as the cradle of Western civilisation, the Mediterranean was once a hectic hub of trade and transport. The incredible wealth that flowed through this region created iconic centres - like Athens and Venice - and a legacy of dreamy coastal villages, historic towns and fascinating ruins - all ripe for discovery. With itineraries crafted by our expert explorers, on our holidays to the Mediterranean, you'll hit all the highlights. But you'll also glimpse the lesser-known destinations that less discerning travellers miss and enjoy authentic experiences that help you appreciate the culture. Like the sound of that? Choose our Signature holidays for even more authentic experiences and smaller group sizes.

You could sail across the Adriatic to explore Croatia's rocky coast, uncover Slovenia's picturesque landscapes on a relaxing tour, or island-hop from Spain to Greece on our elegant tall ships
