Copper Veins & Oracle – Kotor, Rhodes & Kusadasi

About this cruise

The kind of trip where you lose track of what day it is, and nobody cares. 11 nights from Trieste on May 11, 2027, visiting Split, Kotor and Corfu, with additional stops along the Eastern Mediterranean. You wind up in Piraeus (Athens), so it's worth planning a night or two there. 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 Croatia, Montenegro, Greece, Cyprus and Türkiye, 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, Enchanted Princess keeps you well fed. 13 places to eat, with 5 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. 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. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
