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

About this cruise

A trip this long changes your rhythm entirely, and that's very much the point. 11 nights from Piraeus (Athens) on June 14, 2028, visiting Mykonos, Kusadasi and Catania, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. Last stop: Barcelona. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. 5 countries (Greece, Türkiye, Italy, France and Spain) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. 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, You won't go hungry on Valiant Lady. 12 restaurants come with the fare, plus 1 more when you feel like treating yourself. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. A June departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
