Cobblestone & Citadel – Corfu, Marseille & Genoa

About this cruise

Clear the calendar from March 19, 2028. This one's 14 nights from Piraeus (Athens), and the route visits Heraklion, Bar and Corfu, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. You wind up in Civitavecchia (Rome), so it's worth planning a night or two there. 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 Western Mediterranean tour: 5 countries, from Greece to France. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Sun Princess joined the Princess Cruises's lineup in 2024. Still has that new-ship feel. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. A March departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
