Cobblestone & Citadel – Dubrovnik, Kotor & Catania

About this cruise

You sail from Piraeus (Athens) on April 10, 2028 and spend 10 nights visiting Mykonos, Souda (Chania) and Katakolon, with additional stops along the Eastern Mediterranean. It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. Disembarkation is in Civitavecchia (Rome). 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. The Eastern Mediterranean route takes in Greece, Albania, Croatia, Montenegro and Italy, 5 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Caribbean Princess keeps you well fed. 13 places to eat, with 7 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. 10 nights is long enough to build a routine on board: favourite restaurant, favourite deck chair, favourite people. It starts to feel like a floating village. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. You start in Piraeus (Athens) and come back with stories from Greece, Albania, Croatia, Montenegro and Italy.
