11 Night Cruise from Piraeus (Athens)
About this cruise
A trip this long changes your rhythm entirely, and that's very much the point. 11 nights from Piraeus (Athens) on August 4, 2027, visiting Souda (Chania), Kusadasi and Santorini, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. The trip wraps in Barcelona, so you won't retrace your steps. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The route threads through 4 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Greece, Türkiye, Italy and Spain. You get around 12 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Sun Princess launched in 2024, so everything on board is still new. You can tell. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. An August departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 11-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
