Majestic Mediterranean – Santorini & Istanbul

About this cruise

Block out 11 nights from June 15, 2026 and let this sailing from Civitavecchia (Rome) do its thing. The route covers Souda (Chania), Kusadasi, Istanbul, Santorini, Mykonos and Naples and there's plenty of room to breathe between each stop. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 6 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The route threads through 3 countries along the Eastern Mediterranean coast: Greece, Türkiye and Italy. Don't rush through Souda (Chania), which is known as Venetian harbour, Cretan soul. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Celebrity Ascent joined the Celebrity Cruises's lineup in 2023. Still has that new-ship feel. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. Civitavecchia (Rome) itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And June means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All told, 6 ports across 11 nights covers a lot.
