The Mediterranean has given us some of our most food-driven cruise itineraries yet — a Roman Theatre and tapas crawl in Cartagena, a sommelier-led lunch on a Cretan hillside, a chaotic food tastings tour through Istanbul, and a seafood feast in the tiny walled town of Ston on the Dalmatian Coast, to name just a few. This section covers our stops from Spain’s southern coast all the way through Sicily, Croatia, Montenegro, Greece, Turkey and more, with Rome bookending more than one of these trips.
