I get excited just thinking about these ports! While many cruises don’t make their way all the way to Istanbul, this one does. You also have a stop in Kusadasi to visit the Ephesus ruins and the House of the Virgin Mary.

Like the 11 night cruise mentioned above, this wheelchair accessible Celebrity cruise also sails on the 2012-built Celebrity Reflection. The most important similarity between these two cruises is that accessible shore excursions are possible in every port!

This 11 night Eastern Mediterranean cruise and the 10 night cruise listed above have a lot of similarities with a few important differences. The main difference is that this accessible Rome cruise finishes in Venice while the 10 night cruise described above finishes in Rome. Another difference is that this cruise sails on the Celebrity Silhouette instead of the Celebrity Reflection, although both ships are Solstice class ships so they are fairly similar.

This 11 night cruise visits Malta & Crete while the 10 night cruise visits Messina & Rhodes. All four ports are outstanding so the determining factor may come down to which accessible cabins are available. Contact us to discuss which cabin number will be best for you.
