Cruises

If you take a Mediterranean cruise, you’re likely to expect to visit destinations like Barcelona, Venice or Naples. However, if you’ve already been there, done that, you may want to consider taking a new small-ship Mediterranean cruise from AdventureSmith Explorations. The brand’s new cruises promise to take you to lesser-visited locales.

“We often hear from travelers that trips to the Mediterranean are on their bucket list, but they don’t necessarily want to have the same experience the throngs of tourists have in these locations,” said Todd Smith, founder and president, AdventureSmith Explorations. “Our guests are discerning travelers who want to make the most of their trip by visiting less frequented spots and incorporating immersive activities that are not only educational, but more intimately connect them to the people who call these remarkable destinations home.”

 

New 2024 itineraries include the Unexplored Greece: Ionian Islands cruise that takes just 44 guests on an eight-day exploration of small Greek destinations. A new Croatian Coastal cruise is also eight days, but with even fewer guests. In 2025, even more itineraries will be offered on an expedition ship, including a Greek Isle cruise; Greece and Türkiye cruise; Greece, Croatia and Albania cruise; and Dalmatian Coast and Montenegro cruise.
