Sun-Kissed Odyssey – Athens, Mykonos & Alexandria

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Piraeus (Athens) on October 15, 2027 visits Limassol, Alexandria and Mykonos. In between port days, the 3 sea days are where cruise life actually happens: reading, eating, napping, repeat. The Eastern Mediterranean route takes in Cyprus, Egypt and Greece, 3 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Don't rush through Alexandria, which is known as Cleopatra's city at the mouth of the Nile. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Rhapsody Of The Seas keeps you well fed. 8 places to eat, with 3 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Long enough that you stop checking your phone. Short enough that you're not bored. If you can, add a night in Piraeus (Athens) before boarding. It's a good city to wander. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All told, 3 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
