Tranquil Tides – Corfu & Athens
About this cruise
No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Istanbul on March 17, 2027 visits Corfu, Bari, Piraeus (Athens) and Izmir. The 2 sea days in between leave time for the pool, the spa, or whatever else you feel like doing between ports. 3 countries (Greece, Italy and Türkiye) across the Eastern Mediterranean, each with its own character. Izmir alone is worth the trip, Turkey's laid-back Aegean metropolis. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. You won't go hungry on MSC Orchestra. 3 restaurants come with the fare, plus 2 more when you feel like treating yourself. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. Worth booking. That's the short version.
