Ocean Discovery – Rijeka, Bari & Kotor

About this cruise

If you've got 14 nights to work with, this sailing from Trieste on July 4, 2027 through Rijeka, Bari and Kotor, with additional stops along the Eastern Mediterranean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The Eastern Mediterranean route takes in Croatia, Italy, Montenegro, Slovenia and Greece, 5 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Kotor, A fjord hidden in the Montenegrin mountains. Around 12 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Mein Schiff 4 keeps you well fed. 11 places to eat, with 8 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. This one's for people who really want to switch off. No half measures. Block out the calendar. If you can, add a night in Trieste before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
