The Island Escape
With good reason, we believe the Island Escape is the friendliest cruise ship in the Mediterranean.
Our guests tell us that from the Captain down, the crew can never do enough to make you feel at home.
Onboard the Island Escape, there's no standing on ceremony, no dress code and no set times for dinner.
In short what you see is what you get - a relaxed, friendly and informal holiday experience.
