One cruise line, however, stands head and shoulders above the rest: Oceania Cruises. Launched in 2002 as the world's only upper-premium cruise line, the mantra for this relatively new company is to offer the finest cuisine at sea in a variety of stylish and sophisticated open seating restaurants all at no additional charge along with unparalleled personal service to make every voyage memorable. Bon Vivant, an Ensemble Travel product, has partnered with Oceania Cruises on seven Mediterranean cruise departures this summer aboard Riviera, for 7-, 10- or 14-days, featuring: a complimentary wine and food pairing dinner in La Reserve, a USD200 per stateroom shipboard credit as well as Oceania's 2-for-1 Cruise Fares and Free economy airfare from Toronto. The 05AUG14, 10-day Islands & Icons Voyage, Istanbul to Venice, aboard Riviera will be escorted by renowned Canadian Chef Christine Cushing. On Chef Cushing's cruise, Bon Vivant guests will visit local markets then attend hands-on cooking classes in Riviera's Bon Appetite Culinary Centre; experience a full-day excursion to the Aristeon Ecological Olive Press on the magical Greek island of Zakanthos for a tutored extra virgin olive tasting; take a wine and tasting tour to the Boutari Winery on the spectacular island of Santorini and enjoy an intimate, exclusive wine and food pairing dinner at La Reserve. This cruise starts in Istanbul, Turkey; visits Ephesus, continuing to the Greek islands of Santorini, Zakynthos and Corfu, Tirana (Durres), Albania; then on to Montenegro's historic city of Kotor and picturesque Dubrovnik in Croatia - UNESCO World Heritage sites that boast centuries' old histories, majestic architecture and an old-world elegance. The cruise terminates in romantic Venice with an overnight on board, where Bon Vivant guests will explore hidden gems off the beaten path in this incredible city. Oceania's Riviera is a mid-size, elegant ship catering to just 1,250 guests with a country club casual ambiance (tuxedos and gowns are never required). Onboard you will find the finest cuisine at sea, served in six open-seating restaurants (at no additional charge), the acclaimed Canyon Ranch Spa Club and an extraordinarily high staff-to-guest ratio that ensures exemplary personal service. Cabins for these Bon Vivant departures are limited, so call us for details and reserve early. www.oceaniacruises.com www.christinecushing.com Suite 300, South Oakville Centre · 1515 Rebecca Street, Oakville 905.827.1100 travel@mctavish.com www.mctavishtravel.com Ont Reg No 1437985 BEAVER TRAILS TO THE PINERY: Three Oakville families camped at the Pinery, along with the Oakville Beaver, including Beaver delivery boy, Ryan White and his brother Adam.
