Celestyal Cruises, which announced that it has added additional sailings to its 2025 programmes in response to the unprecedentedly increasing demand, has increased the Heavenly Adriatic and Desert Days tours and reorganised the 2025 programme.
Celestyal Cruises, which introduced the two itineraries, which are travelled with the 1260-guest capacity Celestyal Journey ship, in January this year, rearranged both programmes as a result of the intense interest of cruise guests and recently held the first Heavenly Adriatic tour, has planned 9 November 2024 for the first voyage of the Desert Days programme.
Due to unprecedented demand and positive guest feedback, celestyal cruises will add 5 more sailings to its 2025 programme and will also introduce three and four-night variations of its Arabian Gulf sailings.
Mediterranean Programme
Two additional 7-night Heavenly Adriatic cruises departing from Athens and calling at Kefalonia (Greece), Dubrovnik (Croatia), Kotor (Montenegro), Bari (Italy), Corfu (Greece) and Katakolo (Greece) on 22 and 29 March 2025. These 2 additional voyages, starting from 559 Euro per person, will be added to the 8 7-night voyages departing from Athens between April and October 2025 and the 3 7-night Heavenly Adriatic Summer voyages including Venice (Italy) in July and August 2025.
