Greek & Adriatic Gems – Santorini & Kotor
About this cruise
No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Piraeus (Athens) on September 12, 2027 visits Santorini, Katakolon and Corfu, with additional stops along the Eastern Mediterranean. You wind up in Ravenna, so it's worth planning a night or two there. No sea days at all on this one. 7 ports, one after another. Pack accordingly. 5 countries (Greece, Montenegro, Croatia, Slovenia and Italy) across the Eastern Mediterranean, each with its own character. Split stands out. It's Diocletian's palace, still alive after 1,700 years. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. You won't go hungry on Norwegian Gem. 7 restaurants come with the fare, plus 7 more when you feel like treating yourself. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. All in all, it's a solid trip.
