Greek & Adriatic Gems – Athens to Ravenna
About this cruise
Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night sailing from Piraeus (Athens) on October 4, 2027 visits Rhodes, Mykonos, Santorini, Dubrovnik, Split and Ravenna. You finish in Ravenna. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 6 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Crossing 3 borders through the Eastern Mediterranean: Greece, Croatia and Italy. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Rhodes alone is worth the trip, Medieval knights and Aegean light. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Explorer Of The Seas takes the food seriously, with 8 restaurants to choose from. 2 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. Worth booking. That's the short version.
