Ocean Discovery – Istanbul, Kusadasi (Ephesus) & Rhodes

About this cruise

You come back from a trip like this actually rested, not just "I went on vacation" rested. 21 nights from Istanbul on May 5, 2028, visiting Kusadasi, Rhodes and Mykonos, with additional stops along the Eastern Mediterranean. The trip wraps in Piraeus (Athens), so you won't retrace your steps. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 17 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Crossing 6 borders through the Eastern Mediterranean: Türkiye, Greece, Italy, Malta, Croatia and Montenegro. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Keep an eye out for Salerno: The gateway to the Amalfi Coast's vertical beauty. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Enchanted Princess takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 5 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. And May is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. That's 21 nights well spent.
