Ocean Discovery – Port Louis, Richard's Bay & Durban

About this cruise

Every port gets the time it deserves and the sea days in between are half the fun. This 14-night sailing leaves Port Louis on January 4, 2028 and visits Richards Bay, Durban, Port Elizabeth and Cape Town. You finish in Cape Town. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. Spice markets, baobab-lined coastline, and sunsets that turn the whole sky orange. Port Elizabeth alone is worth the trip, The friendly city on Algoa Bay. Roughly 16 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Mein Schiff 5 has 11 dining spots on board, most of them included. 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 a January cruise to warmer water? Hard to argue with that when it's cold at home. Worth booking. That's the short version.
