Ocean Discovery – Corfu, Bari & Trieste

9 nightsMSC SplendidaIstanbul🇹🇷
From $1,984 per person

About this cruise

You sail from Istanbul on August 31, 2027 and spend 9 nights visiting Corfu, Bari, Trieste, Split, Piraeus (Athens) and Izmir. It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. The route threads through 4 countries along the Eastern Mediterranean coast: Greece, Italy, Croatia and Türkiye. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, MSC Splendida has 6 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 9-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.

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.
