Classic Splendors – Rome, Athens & Santorini

About this cruise

10 nights, 7 ports, all from Barcelona on April 25, 2026. The route visits Valletta, Piraeus (Athens) and Santorini, with additional stops along the Eastern Mediterranean and the whole thing just flows. The trip wraps in Civitavecchia (Rome), so you won't retrace your steps. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. It's a proper Eastern Mediterranean tour: 4 countries, from Malta to Italy. You get around 12 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Celebrity Equinox has 10 dining spots on board, most of them included. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. An April departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 10-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
