21 Night Cruise from Piraeus (Athens)

About this cruise

If you've got 21 nights to work with, this sailing from Piraeus (Athens) on April 25, 2027 through Santorini, Bar and Corfu, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The Western Mediterranean route takes in Greece, Montenegro, Italy, Spain, France and Türkiye, 6 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Kusadasi, Turkey's gateway to the ruins of Ephesus. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Sun Princess joined the Princess Cruises's lineup in 2024. Still has that new-ship feel. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Piraeus (Athens) before boarding. It's a good city to wander. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
