Ancient Levant & Blue Domes – Rhodes, Limassol & Split

About this cruise

Block out 11 nights from November 26, 2026 and let this sailing from Venice do its thing. The route covers Katakolon, Heraklion and Rhodes, with additional stops along the Eastern Mediterranean and there's plenty of room to breathe between each stop. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 7 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. It's a proper Eastern Mediterranean tour: 4 countries, from Greece to Croatia. Don't rush through Alexandria, which is known as Cleopatra's city at the mouth of the Nile. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Lirica has 5 dining spots on board, most of them included. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. And November is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All told, 7 ports across 11 nights covers a lot.
