Island Odyssey – Mykonos, Kusadasi & Santorini
About this cruise
By May 14, 2027 you'll be ready for this. 7 nights out of Piraeus (Athens), visiting Mykonos, Kusadasi, Istanbul and Santorini, and nothing on the agenda except showing up. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Whitewashed Cycladic villages one day, busy bazaars the next. Very different moods, same cruise. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Rhapsody Of The Seas takes the food seriously, with 8 restaurants to choose from. 3 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Couples, small groups, or anyone who wants proper time away will find this hits the spot. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Piraeus (Athens) has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A May departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 7-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
