Ocean Discovery – Piraeus (Athens), Kusadasi (Ephesus) & Rhodes

About this cruise

This is the kind of cruise where you actually have time to go back to a port highlight you missed the first time. 23 nights from Piraeus (Athens) on October 14, 2027, visiting Kusadasi, Rhodes and Souda (Chania), with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. Disembarkation is in Civitavecchia (Rome). The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The route threads through 6 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Türkiye, Greece, Malta, Italy, Montenegro and Croatia. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Enchanted Princess has 13 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. An October sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. You start in Piraeus (Athens) and come back with stories from Türkiye, Greece, Malta, Italy, Montenegro and Croatia.
