Last-Minute Cruise Deals With Costa Cruises

amomentwithfranca · 25 October 2019 · 10 Comments

If you are looking to save on your next cruise getaway, these last-minute cruise deals from Costa Cruises are a no-brainer. If you are wondering about escaping reality for a few days, embarking on a cruise ship is a great idea. It’s a stress-free, complete relaxation; where you get far away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. With Costa Cruises, you just have to pack your bags, drop it in the cabin, and leave everything else onto them. 

In fact, it doesn’t have to be a strain on your wallet, as they offer last-minute cruise deals for the majority of their destinations. Consider the following budget-friendly, last-minute cruise deals you can book right now.

Deals on Mediterranean Cruises

Almost entirely enclosed by lands, the Mediterranean Sea is a magnificent work of nature, with its tranquil water, sandy beaches, and harbours in cities with a great heritage. It is always a favoured destination for Europeans. Costa Cruises operates quite a good number of ships with a great variety of itineraries and ports of calls. You can board on a cruise ship for as low as £99 per person for a 3D2N trip, with ships departing from ports such as Barcelona, Savona, Palma, Civitavecchia/ Rome, Genoa, Marseilles, Tarragona, Venice, etc.

Deals on Indian Ocean Cruises

The Indian Ocean runs through the shores of four different continents, supporting a huge variety of cultures and lifestyles on its shores. Asia lies in the north and Australia on the South, with Africa and Antarctica on two other sides. The ocean is filled with natural wonders, and you can take a voyage to explore it closely. A number of last-minute deals are available with itineraries ranging mostly between 8-15 days. It’s usually an expensive cruise, but with the deals, you can book one for as low as £289.

Deals on UAE Cruises

UAE is turning into a global tourist hot spot, with a perfect combination of warm weather, desert excursions, human-made islands, and cosmopolitan cities. Costa Cruises is currently offering greatly discounted, last-minute prices for a couple of their UAE cruises. Choose between Savona or Civitavecchia/ Rome as the port of entries, with two astounding 21-days and 22-days long cruises from Savona for £330 and from Savona £345. For the ultimate deal seekers, you can even book a 20-day trip from Rome for £275.

Deals on Transoceanic Cruises

A transoceanic itinerary from Costa Cruises is the ultimate holiday plan for the most-demanding explorers. Departing from some of the famous ports in Europe, it floats towards some of the most attractive cities of South America. The last-minute deals for a transoceanic cruise come with the options of departing from Marseilles, Rome, Barcelona, Genoa, Savona, etc. The deal prices range between £259 – £729, with the longest cruise lasting for 24 days and the shortest for 14 days.

    I can’t decide whether to go in a cruise or not. I am a widow and a bit nervous about going on my own.

    Never been sure about cruise ships, spending to much time on the boat, I went on one before when I took 2 service users around the mediterranean, and the boar was boring, nothing to do in the daytime when you were going to the next place. If I did one it would have to be a Disney cruise or a Caribian cruise

✨ Happy Mother's Day✨.If you are in the UK, ✨ Happy Mother's Day✨.If you are in the UK, I hope you are having a lovely Mother's Day! 🌸🌸.We actually started the celebrations yesterday as Bella took me to @javawhiskersuk a new cat cafe in Westfield as a present for Mother’s Day. We spent 55 mins arround gorgeous kittens. I had a great time! I am a cat lover so this was a fab present for me! I will talk more about this experience on another post but if you swipe left you can see a little peak of our time there! 🐈😉.Today, the girls and Nick took me for the actually Mother’s Day celebration 🎉 to @cafejackss in Queen’s Park where we had brunch. It was a yummy treat. Swipe left to check it out! 😋 .After that we went for a walk. There was a small market nearby so it was nice to have a little look around 😍. We then went back home and spent the rest of the day chilling which is something, I’m not going to lie, I love doing! 😉😂.How was your day?#mothersdayuk #mothersdayweekend #mothersday2023 #motherofdaughters #mumoftwo #mumofgirls #mydaughters #lovemydaughters #daughterslove #mummydaughtertime #daughtersarethebest #daughtersrock #spendingtimetogether #happyfamilytime #familytime💕
✨My Girls✨.Due to the strikes we had Sienna ✨My Girls✨.Due to the strikes we had Sienna at home yesterday and today, and Bella only today. I thought it would be very chaotic but despite it always being louder when the girls are at home, especially my youngest one, lol, we did well..Bella did school work at home today and had the afternoon free. Sienna didn’t do school work. We only asked her to carry on doing Spanish and Maths via Duolingo. She also had Spanish lessons this afternoon (every Thursday she has lessons) so both days were manageable thankfully 😍.How was it for you? Did your kids stay at home or did they go to school? .PS: let’s hope things get better for teachers. I fully support the strikes. .#sistertime #sisterlylove #sistersgoals #hermanas #sistersforever #sistersforlife #sisterslove #siblingslove #lovemydaughters #raisingdaughters #mydaughters #londonkids #WembleyPark #wembley #londondesigneroutlet
✨Happy Weekend✨.How is your weekend going so ✨Happy Weekend✨.How is your weekend going so far? I am finally feeling more normal after the massive jetlag I had after my trip to South America. I am not sure why it hit me so much this time but it has taken me about two solid weeks to properly be back to my routine without feeling right. Waking up in the mornings was the worst. It was very hard, especially when I had to be on time for the school run! 😩.Anyway, everything feels better now! 😊.How long does it take you to be back to normal after a jetlag? Do you have any tricks or tips to speed this process? .📸 Selfy taken in Barranco, a lively district in Peru considered to be one of the most romantic and bohemian places to visit and being the home and working place of many Peruvian artists, musicians, designers, photographers among others 😎.#thisisme #selfie #instaselfie #smilemore #brunettehair #greeneyes #over40#over40blogger #overforty #overfortystyle #over40andfabulous #over40mom #outandabout #barrancolima

Start of my walk with the view of the ocean showing one the most gorgeous restaurants in Lima “La Rosa Nautica” where you can walk along the pier and then seat down for a meal with a sea view. Very scenic 😍2. 📸 Greater view of the coast showing the Pacific Ocean3. 🎥 Parque Chino (Chinese Park)4. 📸 Parque El Libro (The Book Park) showing a colorful sculpture, “Silencio” created by Peruvian artist José Tola.5. 📸 Parque del Amor (Love Park) showing its larger-than-life sculpture of two lovers in a deep embrace called “The Kiss”.

✨Peruvian Suspiro Limeño✨."Suspiro Limeño" ✨Peruvian Suspiro Limeño✨."Suspiro Limeño" is one of my favourite Peruvian desserts. When I was In Peru, I of course, made sure to have it not only once but several times 😉.This dessert is made of manjar blanco (milk, sugar, almond flour, egg yolks, vanilla) and meringue (egg whites, port, cinnamon) 😘.The history behind this dessert starts with Amparo Ayarza who was the creator. Her husband, José Gálvez Barrenechea was a poet and was the one who gave it its name. The poet called it "Suspiro de Limeña", which means, 'Sigh of a Lima lady', because it is soft and sweet like the sigh of a woman. Love this 🥰.Have you ever tried "Suspiro Limeño"? Or have you heard of it before? Would you try it? .📸 Picture taken @panchitasazoncriolla in Lima that has one of the best versions of this dessert 🙌🏻.#suspirolimeño #peruviandessert #meringue #merengue #desserttime #dessertlover #dessertpic #dessertgram #peruvianfood #cocinaperuana #gastronomiaperuana #perufood #peruviancousine #whatisfordessert #dessertsofinstagram

Peruvian food is one of the best in the world! It really is! And eating in Peru is a must! Trying any dish even if it is not neccesary a peruvian dish, it is cooked in such a way that the taste is just incredible! 😋 .While I was there for a couple of weeks I really made sure to try my favourite dishes again as well as new dishes and visiting classic restaurants as well as new restaurants and cafes that have opened in the last 5 years that I haven’t been able to visit. .If you go to Peru and stop in Lima, I really recommend you to visit @elmercadorestaurante, @cafedelima, @bottega_dasso, @panchitasazoncriolla, @eltiomario_restaurant, @lacaffettedilonato, @churreriamanolope, @franklinrestaurante, @lalamiraflores, @osakanikkei, @elpandelachola, @mattoniperu, @laterrazadelpardo, @cafevictoria_barranco among others!
