Oceania Announces First “Culinary Masters’ Cruise”

Oceania Cruises will host its first annual “Culinary Masters’ Cruise” onboard the Marina in October 2024.

Designed for food lovers, this special sailing will be hosted by Oceania Cruises’ two Master Chefs of France, Senior Culinary Director Alexis Quaretti and Vice President of Culinary Chef Eric, allowing guests to learn and be immersed in the culinary arts.

The voyage departs from Valletta, Malta, to Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy, on October 16, 2024, with ports of call in Kotor, Montenegro; Dubrovnik and Split in Croatia; Bari, Italy; Corfu and Katakolon in Greece; and Naples, Italy.

Guests onboard the first Culinary Masters’ Cruise will hear expert insights in onstage panel discussions and attend live cooking demonstrations from Chef Quaretti and Chef Eric Barale and their special guests.

All guests will be invited to attend a gala seafood brunch and enjoy themed Chef’s Market Dinners in The Terrace Café, made with ingredients from local markets and inspired by the destinations visited.

In addition, guests can look forward to culinary tours in local ports and hands-on cooking classes, led by Oceania Cruises’ culinary team; expert-led wine tastings onboard; or a private dinner event.
