Mediterranean Marvels – Athens, Istanbul & Corfu
About this cruise
7 nights, 4 ports, all from Bari on November 28, 2026. The route visits Piraeus (Athens), Izmir, Istanbul and Corfu and the whole thing just flows. 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 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, MSC Orchestra keeps you well fed. 5 places to eat, with 3 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. A November sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. 7 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
