Few places in the world pack in as much culture per square meter as Europe does… and nobody packs fun into Europe like Carnival does! There’s so much variety across the continent and its islands, and with Carnival you have options for experiencing many of these places by sea. Cruise the Mediterranean and soak in the espresso-fueled, yet somehow unhurried, cobblestone-lined street life from a sidewalk café. Snow-capped peaks go great with postcard-perfect glaciers across Northern Europe destinations… plus you’ll find some of the greenest British Isle views on the same itinerary! Western Europe cruises visit the region from which the explorers of the New World kicked off their voyages. If your head is spinning with all the possibilities… great! That means you have choices — and believe us, any one of them is the right choice!

• See some of nature’s most dramatic landscapes.
• Explore historical buildings, ruins and cathedrals that are older than many countries.
• Check out museums and statues... and always read the plaques.

April Cruises

An elevated springtime experience

Celebrate spring on an April cruise to sought-after destinations around the world. Island hop through the Caribbean, soaking up the sunshine. Explore the volcanic landscapes and extraordinary wildlife of the remote Galapagos Islands. Cross the Atlantic Ocean on an epic two-week journey that will take you to Europe, where glamorous islands and historic cities await. The whole world is at your fingertips on a cruise in April with Celebrity. Where will you go?

Itineraries

Top april cruise destinations, the caribbean.

The Caribbean is always in season. Sail away on cruises in April to popular ports like Cozumel, Key West, and San Juan, or venture further south to Cartagena, Aruba, and Curaçao. Snorkel impressive dive sites, swim over coral reefs, and bask on some of the whitest sands in the world. A variety of itineraries are available, from weekend getaways to the Bahamas to 10-night itineraries to see the best of the islands.

The Galapagos Islands

In the Galapagos Islands, you’ll find some of nature’s most incredible creatures. From giant tortoises to iguanas and sea lions, you’ll be able to see a wide variety of animals in their natural habitats on an April cruise with Celebrity. Hike through volcanic landscapes and snorkel alongside sea turtles and Galapagos penguins. Retrace the footsteps of Charles Darwin on Floreana Island, where you’ll find white-cheeked pintail ducks and native flamingos as you explore Cormorant Point.

Transatlantic Cruises

On a transatlantic cruise, you’ll spend 13 to 15 nights on board one of our cruise ships, with time to relax and enjoy fine dining, spa treatments, and dazzling entertainment. You’ll stop at subtropical Madeira or the Canary Islands before continuing to the heart of Europe. Depending on your itinerary, you might visit ancient Cadiz and dynamic Barcelona, or Cobh, the gateway to Ireland’s castles and rolling hills. Or Paris, which is at its most seductive in springtime.

ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISE 2024-26 GUIDE

When it comes to planning the ultimate getaway, there are so many reasons why cruise vacations rank among the most popular travel options. First of all, they’re completely stress-free. On a cruise vacation, all the planning is taken care of by the cruise line — from the  destinations  you sail to and the  shore excursions  available at each port, to a full range of  entertainment  and activities happening onboard every day. If you’re not a planner, or if the only things you’re looking to focus on during your getaway is savoring great food, relaxing, and soaking up the sights, cruise vacations are the way to go. A cruise vacation is also a great option if you’re traveling with the whole family, especially when you opt for a Royal Caribbean cruise. All of the ships in this cruise line’s fleet offer family-friendly experiences for guests of all ages. Even little ones will find plenty of ways to play with spaces and activities designed for tots to tweens. One of the top reasons savvy travelers love cruising, though, is because of the incredible value it offers. With Royal Caribbean, your cruise fare includes access to most of the ship’s attractions, select dining venues and all of the entertainment onboard. If you want to make your  experience  even more all-inclusive, you can opt for  beverage  and  specialty dining  packages that cover drinks and dinner at some of the most exclusive restaurants in the fleet. On top of all that, the cruise line presents frequent limited-time offers and seasonal sales, making it easy to score big savings when booking your vacation.
