Mediterranean Marvels – Athens, Istanbul & Corfu

7 nightsMSC OrchestraBari🇮🇹
From $790 per person

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 Bari on October 31, 2026 visits Piraeus (Athens), Izmir, Istanbul and Corfu. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Ancient temples, white-and-blue Greek islands, and warm Aegean water. Hard to argue with. Piraeus (Athens) alone is worth the trip, The Acropolis beckons from the harbour. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. You won't go hungry on MSC Orchestra. 3 restaurants come with the fare, plus 2 more when you feel like treating yourself. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. Worth booking. That's the short version.

Where to book

View on official site

The price above matches MSC Cruises's USD site. MSC Cruises prices every country separately, so the others may show something different.

Each MSC Cruises site only sells to people living in the region it serves. Agencies sell across markets, so this fare is often still bookable through one. See who sells it

We added MSC Cruises's mandatory service charge to the prices above, so they show the real total. MSC Cruises bills it on board rather than in the fare, so their own site will quote you less.
