Greek Island Escape – Santorini & Athens

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Bari on July 17, 2027 visits Santorini, Piraeus (Athens), Katakolon, Kefalonia and Corfu. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. A lot of Western civilisation started around here, and the views haven't changed much since. Piraeus (Athens) alone is worth the trip, The Acropolis beckons from the harbour. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. MSC Orchestra has 5 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. Bari itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. Worth booking. That's the short version.
