Set a course for adventure next summer on the newest Atlantis cruise between Europe’s two gay capitals – Amsterdam and Barcelona – with an incomparable journey to the most fascinating cities in Spain, Portugal, and France. From the lush vineyards of Bordeaux to the amber streets of Seville to the powder-white beaches of Malaga, you’ll experience something new every day. All while we pamper and entertain you onboard Celebrity Silhouette, our highest-rated ship of all time.
Europe’s Largest Gay Cruise
Our cruises in Europe have grown each year to bring together more gay guests from more countries than ever before. With 2800 guests joining us from roughly 50 different nations, the Atlantis Med cruise has become the largest and most diverse gay experience in the world. Over half of our 2800 guests are from Europe, with large groups from Australia, Brazil, and beyond. It’s a unique place to revel together, take pride in who we are, and have a lot of fun along the way. And in 2017, we’re thrilled to create a brand new experience on our most popular ship of all time!
While most of our entertainment is in English, Atlantis provides assistance to guests who speak French, German, Spanish, & Portuguese through our international hosts and many special events.
More Places to Explore
It all begins in Amsterdam, Europe’s most gay-friendly city, where charming canals meet a dynamic and passionate urban culture. After a relaxing day at sea, our visit to La Rochelle invites you to explore the legendary vineyards of Bordeaux, or simply explore the marvels of the city itself. In Bilbao, you can’t miss the stunningly modern museum and gateway to the magical countryside of Spain’s Basque region. Next, the wonders of Galicia beckon, with La Coruna’s awe-inspiring cliffs, windswept pristine beaches, and glorious seafood.
Once we arrive in Lisbon, you’ll have a full day and night to enjoy the wonders and fascinating nightlife of this unique coastal city. And you’ll truly have time to enjoy it all before heading to historic Seville with ancient streets lined with treasures beyond your imagination.
Our first visit to the beach resort town of Malaga takes you deep into the heart of Southern Spain, with her magnificent coastline and laid-back attitude.
