The new offering became available to book from yesterday (August 15) via its call centre, with customers able to extend their holiday by three nights to destinations across Europe and America.

The stays will include cities such as Barcelona, Rome and Venice, as well as Miami in the US.

The packages include return flights from London to the departure port city destination, a three-night pre-cruise stay in a city centre hotel and a full day with fully guided tour of the city’s highlights with lunch.

In addition there will also be another half-day guided tour and farewell dinner, a free “classic” drinks package, airport and seaport transfers and priority pass airport lounge access on guests’ departure and return.

Examples of the breaks include sampling local wines with a guided tour of a Catalan castle in Barcelona, and a gondola ride along with a visit to the Academy Museum to view works by Da Vinci in Venice.

Sarah Harraghy, commercial sales director, UK and Ireland, Celebrity Cruises said: “At Celebrity Cruises we pride ourselves on continually offering our agent partners new and exciting products to sell to their luxury clients.

“These new packages will give holidaymakers the opportunity to really immerse themselves in all of the destinations that we sail. We have chosen the locations based on feedback from agents and destinations that are already extremely popular among our guests. We are looking forward to adding new cities in the near future.”
