14 nights - Eastern Mediterranean Intensive - from/to Heraklion

About this cruise

Clear the calendar from September 17, 2027. This one's 14 nights from Heraklion, and the route visits Alexandria, Limassol and Rhodes, with additional stops along the Eastern Mediterranean. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. 5 countries (Egypt, Cyprus, Greece, Malta and Italy) across the Eastern Mediterranean, each with its own character. 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, You won't go hungry on Mein Schiff 5. 8 restaurants come with the fare, plus 3 more when you feel like treating yourself. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. A September sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. 14 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
