7 Night Cruise from Istanbul

About this cruise

You sail from Istanbul on July 18, 2027 and spend 7 nights visiting Mykonos, Heraklion, Rhodes, Kos Island and Piraeus (Athens). It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. 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 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Costa Pacifica: 3,014 guests, 13 decks. Entertainment, dining, and enough space that it never feels cramped. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. You start in Istanbul and come back with stories from Mykonos, Heraklion, Rhodes, Kos Island and Piraeus (Athens).
