Stucco & Stone – Venice, Kotor & Mykonos

About this cruise

7 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Ancona on June 12, 2026 visits Venice, Kotor, Mykonos and Syros and doesn't try to cram in too much. The 2 sea days in between leave time for the pool, the spa, or whatever else you feel like doing between ports. Crossing 3 borders through the Eastern Mediterranean: Italy, Montenegro and Greece. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Don't rush through Mykonos, which is known as Whitewashed glamour under the Aegean sun. Roughly 8 hours per stop. More of a sampler than a deep dive. MSC Lirica takes the food seriously, with 5 restaurants to choose from. 4 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. This length suits most people. Enough time to settle in and actually unwind, without the trip dragging on. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All told, 4 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
