    Exclamation Anyone going to the Mediterranean in 2009

    Have you got a cruise booked or planned to the Mediterranean this year??

    If so, please come here and post when and where you are going.
    Other members might be on the same ship as you or, on a different ship but in the same port on the same day as you.
    Join in also if you have any tips or experiences you have had sailing the Med in the past

    We are taking the Brilliance of the seas to Malta, Egypt, Greece and Sicily November 30 to December 12 this year. We were acually booked on the November 6 voyage but had to switch because of work etc.
    Its been a while since I have been to Egypt and Greece so I am looking forward to this cruise.
    Though I have been to Egypt and Greece before I never made it to the pyramids and Acropolis, properly.
    I am also looking forward to Malta again as the port was canceled during our last cruise.

    We'll be taking the new Celebrity Equinox transatlantic cruise on November 5. Our adventure begins in Rome (Civitavecchia) with stops in Provence, France; Barcelona, Palma De Mallorca, and Cartagena, Spain; Lanzarote and Tenerife, Canary Islands before 6 wonderful sea days crossing the pond to Ft. Lauderdale, FL.

    Great idea, Lars!

    We are sailing on Celebrity Summit from San Juan to Barcelona on April 18th.

    Our ports of call are Tenerife, Canary Islands ~ Agadir, Morocco ~ Malaga, Spain ~ Valencia, Spain and finally Barcelona.

    5 lovely sea days before our first port of call.....then 2 more sea days in between ports.

    We have a Roll Call, but only 2 of us (so far) from CLF are posting on it.

    Lars, we stopped in Alexandria but not Port Said. If you decide to go to Cairo to see the pyramids, let me know and I'll send you the name of the tour company we used. It worked out much better than taking a ship's tour and we were ahead of the mob everywhere we went (including bathroom stops).

    By the way, if you haven't sailed on the Brilliance, you'll love her. She's a beautiful ship!

    We are planning to go to Cairo for the Pyramids. I have been in contact with a few tour companies, one of them being Egypt Daily Tours. I would love to have the name of your tour company please.
    We sailed onboard the Brilliance last November, I love her she is a very beautiful ship.
