One of the highlights of Oceania Cruises’ 2025 European season is the debut of its newest ship, Oceania Allura, that will set sail from Trieste, Italy, on her maiden voyage in mid-July on a series of eastern and western Mediterranean voyages. In addition to Allura, five other Oceania ships, Vista, Marina, Nautica, Sirena, and Insignia, will offer European voyages taking in idyllic islands, dramatic fjords, well-loved resort towns, and bustling cities, all while putting immersion in local communities and cuisine at the center of the experience.
Oceania Allura is the line’s eighth ship, and the second in the 1,200-guest Allura Class. Oceania Vista was the first of the Allura Class, debuting in 2023. Allura features large standard staterooms, an onboard crêperie, top-ship library with a wall of glass for taking in views, and five specialty dining venues including, The Culinary Center, Oceania’s hands-on cooking school.
Oceania Allura’s maiden voyage departs July 18 with a 6-day cruise from Trieste, Italy to Athens (Piraeus), Greece. Following its sojourn to Athens, Allura takes a leisurely 12-day Mediterranean cruise to Monte Carlo, Monaco. Other itineraries for Oceania Allura include 12 days from Athens (Piraeus), Greece to Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy, and 10 Days from Monte Carlo, Monaco to Lisbon, Portugal before heading to New York City in late September.
As Oceania Allura sails its inaugural season of eastern and western Mediterranean voyages, her sister ship, Vista, alongside Oceania Marina, will cruise in Spain, Portugal, and Greece during the early season of May and June before heading north to the British Isles, Iceland, and Scandinavia for the height of the summer.
Those seeking a smaller ship experience, 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 ships will be sailing “port collector” voyages, with lesser visited stops such as Lulea and Lysekil in Sweden and the Finnish port of Vaasa.
Oceania Cruises offers guests ultra-premium cruising with always included amenities, such as dining at all specialty restaurants; unlimited WiFi; butler service for all guests in Penthouse Suites and above; juices, still and sparkling Vero Water, plus coffees and teas.
