Ocean Discovery – Chania, Kusadasi (Ephesus) & Mykonos

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 10-night sailing from Civitavecchia (Rome) on October 26, 2027 visits Souda (Chania), Kusadasi, Mykonos, Piraeus (Athens), Katakolon and Naples. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 6 port calls start. Crossing 3 borders through the Eastern Mediterranean: Greece, Türkiye and Italy. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Don't rush through Katakolon, which is known as Gateway to ancient Olympia. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Carnival Miracle takes the food seriously, with 7 restaurants to choose from. 5 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. This length suits most people. Enough time to settle in and actually unwind, without the trip dragging on. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. All told, 6 ports across 10 nights covers a lot.
