7 days, round-trip 7 Night Greek Isles Turkey and Mykonos Overnight Cruise

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 7 nights from Piraeus (Athens) on May 16, 2027, visiting Santorini, Souda (Chania), Kusadasi and Mykonos. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. Archaeological sites, ouzo by the water, and island-hopping through the Aegean. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Scarlet Lady takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 12 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. The sweet spot for most travellers: you get to know the ship, see the ports, and come home before the laundry piles up. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Piraeus (Athens) has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. You start in Piraeus (Athens) and come back with stories from Greece and Türkiye.
