14 Night Cruise from Venice

About this cruise

14 nights starts to feel like a proper adventure. You leave Venice on September 4, 2027 and the route takes you through Bari, Santorini and Mykonos, with additional stops along the Eastern Mediterranean at a pace where there's never any need to rush. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The Eastern Mediterranean route takes in Italy, Greece, Montenegro and Croatia, 4 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Keep an eye out for Kotor: A fjord hidden in the Montenegrin mountains. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Costa Deliziosa has 2,260 guests. Big enough for variety, not so big it feels anonymous. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. This one's for people who really want to switch off. No half measures. Block out the calendar. If you can, add a night in Venice before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. That's 14 nights well spent.
