A cruise is much more than a ship!
A cruise is much more than a ship!
Perhaps not many people know, but a cruise is much more than a ship. As travel trends change in 2024, cruise ships, which are expected to carry 36 million passengers, are deepening their programmes. Now is the time for multiple experiences in one trip: Embark on a cruise, experience cities, trace history, safari in the desert, taste local delicacies, participate in an archaeological excavation, observe wild nature, discover the undersea!
It is now possible to experience much more than visiting and exploring port cities and cultures when you go on a cruise. Celestyal, selected by Travel and Leisure as one of the 10 most popular mid-size cruise ships of 2024, has raised the bar one step higher in its experience-oriented programme. Celestyal's Arabian Gulf cruise programme, Desert Days, offers multiple experiences in a single trip. Offering the opportunity to explore the Arabian geography, where ancient civilisations meet modern architectures, the route offers 3, 4 and 7-night alternatives.
Dancing with dolphins, safari in the desert, cycling in date palm groves!
What else is on this programme? Luxury beaches in Abu Dhabi, the modern city on the shores of the Persian Gulf; futuristic skyscrapers in Doha, the capital of Qatar; The Pearl, an artificial island built on 4 million square metres; the world's tallest buildings, dizzying observation decks and design shops in Dubai; local delicacies, national museum, breathtaking deserts, water parks in Bahrain, which consists of 50 natural and 33 artificial islands...
These in-depth Arabian Gulf cruise programmes with 3, 4 and 7 night alternatives start from 329 Euros per person. The programme, which includes exclusive meals, all drinks taken during meals, all activities, shows, port taxes, travel health insurance and land tour discount of 75 Euros, makes a difference as a budget-friendly programme compared to many holidays not only in Turkey but also abroad. Especially considering the hotel prices in the Arabian peninsula, exploring this destination in depth with a cruise programme will provide significant savings for travellers.
