Oceania Cruises, the world's leading culinary- and destination-focused cruise line, is excited to announce its 2026 Collection of Voyages, showcasing an extraordinary range of sailings across Alaska, the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, and beyond. This collection features over 100 enticing itineraries, including 35 Grand Voyages, offering the most enjoyable means of extended exploration by sea aboard six of the line's ultra-premium, small ships.

Whether exploring Alaska's rugged wilderness, basking in the sun-drenched Mediterranean, or uncovering the splendours of Northern Europe, Oceania's thoughtfully planned voyages ignite a passion for discovery and adventure.
The return of Riviera™ to Alaska in 2026 marks a significant highlight of the 2026 Collection. Offering 14 diverse itineraries, Riviera invites travellers to explore marquee ports such as Juneau, Ketchikan, and Sitka, alongside boutique ports including Klawock, Wrangell, and Haines. Guests can indulge in activities like helicopter flightseeing with local experts, Zodiac boat expeditions, wildlife safaris in old-growth rainforests, and more, all while enjoying Riviera's luxurious ambiance and gourmet culinary experiences.
Sail the stunning Mediterranean aboard Allura™, Insignia™, and Nautica™. With over 50 distinct itineraries ranging from seven to 14 days, guests can explore iconic cities like Barcelona, Rome (Civitavecchia), Athens (Piraeus), Istanbul, Lisbon, and Monte Carlo. Oceania Cruises offers the perfect blend of old-world beauty and modern charisma, allowing travellers to savour gourmet dining, visit historic ruins, and enjoy vibrant local cultures.
Embark on voyages aboard Vista™, Marina™, and Insignia™ as you explore the breathtaking landscapes and cultural treasures of the Baltics, Scandinavia, the British Isles, Iceland, and Greenland. With over two dozen itineraries ranging from seven to 18 days, guests can visit cities such as Stockholm, Berlin, Reykjavik, and London, while also discovering hidden gems like Trapani, Sicily, Tórshavn, Faroe Islands, Arrecife, Lanzarote, Mandal, Norway, Liepaja, Latvia, and Lysekil, Sweden.
A standout feature of the 2026 Collection is Marina™'s Solar Eclipse Cruise, departing from Copenhagen to Reykjavik on July 30, 2026. Positioned in the path of totality for the 2026 Solar Eclipse, this unique voyage offers guests an extraordinary celestial experience. Onboard programming includes an eclipse viewing party, signature cocktails, special cooking demonstrations, and the presence of renowned astronomer Dennis Mammana as the guest enrichment speaker and eclipse narrator.
Oceania Cruises' small ships, accommodating between 1,250 and 1,400 guests, provide a more intimate and personalised cruising experience. These vessels spend between 30% and 50% more time in each port than premium cruise lines, allowing guests to delve deeper into each destination. Whether it's an overnight stay in a charming town or a day-long exploration of a historic city, Oceania's itineraries are designed to offer unparalleled access and immersion.
From bucket-list trips covering incredible locations like Vancouver, Papeete, Istanbul, Barcelona, Reykjavik, and London, to off-the-beaten-path destinations such as Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, Arrecife, Lanzarote, Nuku Hiva, French Polynesia, and the Canary Islands, the 2026 Collection ensures that every traveller finds their perfect voyage. With sailings ranging from seven to 67 days, guests can tailor their journeys to suit their schedules and interests, enjoying everything from vibrant city life to serene natural landscapes.
