Oceania Cruises And Selector - Mediterranean Allure

You're invited to join Selector for this once-in-a-lifetime, small, group, luxury journey as we explore some of the most historically significant wineries across Italy and France over a 15-day Sojourn.

To celebrate the mid-2025 launch of the newest addition to its fleet, Allura, Oceania  Cruises has partnered with Selector to curate an exclusively hosted, small group, food and wine experience as part of the first handful of maiden voyages undertaken by this impressive new vessel.


SET SAIL FOR A WORLD OF FLAVOUR

Oceania Cruises Mediterranean Allure

Oceania Cruises Mediterranean Allure

Aboard Allura, Oceania Cruises' eighth ship and the second of its all-new Allura Class ultra-premium vessels, you'll discover the birthplace of Chianti, explore the backbone of food and wine in Tuscany, immerse yourself in the remarkable wine and cuisine of Sicily's Mt Etna, and dive deep into the flavours of Provence in the south of France: this and more, in a once-in-a-lifetime cruise. 

ROME, TUSCANY, SICILIY

Personally curated and hosted by Selector publisher, Paul Diamond, your bespoke 'Taste the Treasures of Europe' experience begins in Rome, journeys to Tuscany for a three-day wine and culinary immersion, then back to Rome to board Allura for a 10-day cruise. From Rome (Civitavecchia), it's off to the Amalfi coast, docking at Salerno for a day. After, we travel south to Sicily (Taormina), where we'll explore the port, before an exclusive tasting and lunch with the Graci family on Mt Etna. Following lunch, we'll enjoy the afternoon discovering the historic town of Taormina.

MALTA AND LAS ISLAS BALEARIC

Next stop, Valletta (Malta), to take in the amazing prehistoric temples at Tarxien or the beautiful walled Mdina, wandering through its imposing churches, and down the streets of fortified towns where the Knights of St. John held power. From there, we spend a relaxing day at sea, to make the most of life aboard a brand new, luxurious ship that has two staff for every three guests. Spend a day exploring the historic side of Ibiza or 'Eivissa' by heading up to the mountains for an optional food and wine excursion; or, visit 16th-century Castle of Ibiza, and the Museum of Contemporary Art inside its fortified walls: with its cobblestone streets, Ibiza is a beautiful, historic city with much to explore.

BARCELONA AND VALENCIA

Barcelona awaits: go solo to immerse yourself in the one of the greatest cities in the world, or join Paul on one of the many food and wine options he's curated just for this excursion. The next day, we'll head to historic Valencia, where you can again choose to explore on your own, or join Paul for one - or several - of the options he has planned, such as a visit to the fresh food markets to sample the regional produce on offer.

PROVENCE TO MONACO

North-east lies our next destination: Provence (Marseille), where we'll visit the fabulous Mourchou family, and explore the rare and historic Rosé and reds of Clos Cibonne. After a tasting and small tour, we'll take a table at a seaside restaurant for an exclusive Provencal lunch with Clos Cibonne wines, as we enjoy the unique climate of La Pradet, and its special corner of the sublime Provence-Alpes-Cte d'Azur. The next day, Monaco and the famed port of Monte Carlo await, where you can experience Grand Corniche with its stunning views of Monaco and the Old City. Or, explore the wonderful old villages along the Cte d'Azur from Nice to medieval Eze or Cannes, Grasse and lovely Saint Paul de Vence - each bucket list destinations in their own right.

ALLURA AND ON-BOARD EXTRAS

This mid-sized marvel offers guests an exquisite take on ultra-premium cruising, fusing innovative residential accommodations, revitalised dining selections, and sophisticated public spaces with Oceania Cruises' renowned commitment to crafting a relaxed, country club-style atmosphere onboard. Paul has even designed some exclusive on-board experiences especially for you: hosted dinners and masterclasses that you can choose to take part in at your leisure, designed to have you meet with fellow guests to expand your palate and your appreciation of the region's iconic wine and food.

FEAST WITH THE FINEST CUISINE AT SEA

Oceania Cruises Mediterranean Allure Grand Dining Room

The dining options available to you on Allura are vast, and include the newly created Ember (an upscale restaurant offering new takes on American classics, open for lunch and dinner), and Aquamar Kitchen, serving breakfast and lunch, with an emphasis on healthy dishes. From the refined elegance of the Grand Dining Room to the ultimate steakhouse experience at Polo Grill, through to specialities such as Toscana, Red Ginger, and the more casual Terrace Cafe and Waves Grill, your on-board dining is bound to be as unforgettable as your journey.
