Do any cruises leave from Europe?
Yes. Princess offers departures from top European ports, including Athens (Piraeus), Barcelona, Civitavecchia (for Rome), Copenhagen, Southampton (for London), Trieste (for Venice), Istanbul, Helsinki and Reykjavik. It’s easy to combine a cruise with a land stay or international flight.
What is the best month to cruise around Europe?
Europe is a year-round destination. With Northern Europe, Mediterranean and Transatlantic voyages sailing from January through November, you can find an itinerary that fits your style in every season — each offering its own highlights, local flavors and experiences.
What is the weather like in Europe?
Mediterranean sailings feature sunny, warm days from late spring to early fall — ideal for beaches and open-air cafés. Northern Europe is cooler, with long daylight hours in summer that are perfect for fjords, castles and Baltic city exploration.
Which European cruise is most scenic?
Norway and Iceland sailings are top picks for dramatic scenery — think fjords, snow-capped peaks and cascading waterfalls viewed right from the deck. The British Isles and Baltics deliver stunning coasts and historic skylines, while the Mediterranean offers sun-drenched shores and vibrant seaside towns.
When should I book a European cruise?
Book 6–12 months in advance for the best fares, widest stateroom selection and access to Early Booking Offers such as airfare deals or onboard credit. Spring and fall sailings on popular routes often sell out quickly.
