7 days, round-trip Eastern Mediterranean from Taranto

About this cruise

By August 9, 2026 you'll be ready for this. 7 nights out of Taranto, visiting Kefalonia, Mykonos, Piraeus (Athens), Valletta and Catania, and nothing on the agenda except showing up. 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 3 countries along the Eastern Mediterranean coast: Greece, Malta and Italy. You get around 10 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Costa Fascinosa holds 3,014 guests across 13 decks. It's a big ship, with plenty to keep you busy. An August departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. 7 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
