Med Crusies - The Mamma Mia Effect

It's no wonder Greece is such a popular choice for Med cruises. The Greek islands have been used in a succession of films where the scenery outshone the actors. Films such as Captain Corelli's Mandolin caused a tourism boom to the region. And now, travel agencies are bracing themselves for a huge increase in Med cruises as the 2008 summer hit Mamma Mia! rocks a few boats.

Med Cruises: How can you Resist them?

Med cruises perhaps represent the ideal holiday for sun seekers and culture vultures alike. With the chance to island hop on a Med cruise, you can go from port to port, enjoying the Greek islands in all their beauty. And looking at the scenery in the Abba-inspired movie starring Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan, the film certainly made the Greek Islands something of a star. Med cruises offer a chance to really see the Greek Islands in their full glory – from the sea. Cruising through sparkling blue waters is one of the main pulls of a Med Cruise. Mamma Mia! was filmed on Skopelos, a small Greek island not accessible by air. In fact, there are 1400 Greek islands – just 169 are inhabited. A Med cruise in the region is one way of really appreciating their true beauty, allowing you to escape to your own Greek island, seek out a vibrant nightlife, explore ancient Greek heritage, architecture and art, or simply enjoy the view from your cruise ship.

Med Cruises and Movie Star Appeal

The allure of cruising the Med hasn't been lost on A-list movie stars in their free time. George Clooney may not have been lucky enough to spend several months filming on Skopelos, but he regularly embarks on Med Cruises, this year taking a luxury cruise with supermodel Cindy Crawford and her family, according to People magazine.

Med Cruises: A Greek Love Affair

Taking one of the Med cruises tailored to your needs creates an idyllic holiday – whether it's to immerse yourself in culture, history and art, or in the latest blockbuster on the deck of your cruise ship or on the golden sands of the Med; Med cruises offer something for everyone. The Greek Islands promise breathtaking backdrops, medieval cities with intriguing histories, religious sites and art...on Med Cruises, the possibilities are endless.
