Ocean Discovery – Naples, Chania & Kusadasi (Ephesus)

About this cruise

Block out 21 nights from October 3, 2027 and let this sailing from Civitavecchia (Rome) do its thing. The route covers Naples, Souda (Chania) and Kusadasi, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean and there's plenty of room to breathe between each stop. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 14 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 6 countries, from Italy to France. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Marseille, France's oldest city, salty and soulful. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Sun Princess joined the Princess Cruises's lineup in 2024. Still has that new-ship feel. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
