Cruises from Istanbul

Straddling Europe and Asia, Istanbul has flourished as a crossroads of Eastern and Western civilization. Once known as Byzantium and Constantinople, it served as the capital of the Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires, playing a central role in the world through each of those eras.

In this city the cultures of Christianity and Islam intertwine, and historic monuments, mosques and bazaars remain to this day.

With MSC Cruises, we offer a wide variety of itineraries departing from Istanbul to take in the breathtaking scenery of the Mediterranean.
