The Carnival Legend is set to spend the summer of 2026 cruising in Europe, Carnival Cruise Line announced in a press release.

According to the company, the Spirit-class ship will offer a series of itineraries in the Mediterranean and Northern Europe during a seven-month season.

The recently announced program starts with a trans-Atlantic crossing in May 2026. The 14-day repositioning voyage sails from Miami to Dover, England, and features visits to destinations in the British Isles, including Liverpool, Holyhead and Dun Laoghaire.

While homeporting in Europe, the Carnival Legend will sail nine cruises from Dover, with varied nine- to 12-night itineraries in Northern Europe.

The schedule also includes six cruises from Civitavecchia (Rome) with either nine- or 12-night itineraries in the Mediterranean.

From Dover, the cruises showcase destinations such as Copenhagen, Denmark, and Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

The 2002-built ship will also cruise to the British Isles, with stops in ports across Ireland, England and Scotland, in addition to one cruise with four stops in Iceland.

Scandinavia and Baltic cruises offer visits to Germany, Estonia, Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Belgium, while Western Europe ports include those in Portugal, Spain and France.

From Civitavecchia, a series of nine-day and 12-day sailings include destinations across Italy, the Greek Isles, Turkey and Croatia.

Ports of call in the Mediterranean include Istanbul and Kusadasi (Ephesus) in Turkey; Piraeus (Athens) and Mykonos in Greece; as well as Naples (Amalfi/Pompeii), Italy; Split and Dubrovnik, Croatia.

Completing its 2026 season in Europe, the Carnival Legend offers a 14-day Carnival Journeys voyage departing to Tampa.

The cruise sails from Barcelona in early November 2026, and features visits to Cartagena and Malaga, Spain; Gibraltar; and Bermuda.

Carnival Cruise Line is also offering a complete summer program in Europe in 2025 with the Carnival Miracle.

The Spirit-class vessel is scheduled to offer a series of cruises to Northern Europe and the Mediterranean departing from Dover and Civitavecchia.
