Sun-Kissed Mediterranean Sojourn – Athens, Istanbul & Venice

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 9 nights from Piraeus (Athens) on June 9, 2027, visiting Kusadasi, Istanbul, Corfu, Bari, Trieste and Split. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. 4 countries (Türkiye, Greece, Italy and Croatia) across the Eastern Mediterranean, each with its own character. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, You won't go hungry on MSC Splendida. 2 restaurants come with the fare, plus 4 more when you feel like treating yourself. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
