Sunken Pillars & Olive Groves – Ephesus, Athens & Rome
About this cruise
The kind of trip where you lose track of what day it is, and nobody cares. 21 nights from Barcelona on March 5, 2028, visiting Palma de Mallorca, Marseille and Ajaccio, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. 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. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 6 countries, from Spain to Montenegro. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Sun Princess joined the Princess Cruises's lineup in 2024. Still has that new-ship feel. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 21-night sailing is a strong place to start.
