Windmill Silhouette – Mykonos & Venice from Ancona
About this cruise
7 nights, 4 ports, all from Ancona on July 9, 2027. The route visits Venice, Kotor, Mykonos and Syros and the whole thing just flows. The pace is well balanced: 2 sea days mixed in so there's no rush between stops. Crossing 3 borders through the Eastern Mediterranean: Italy, Montenegro and Greece. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Roughly 8 hours per stop. More of a sampler than a deep dive. When you're not ashore, MSC Lirica takes the food seriously, with 5 restaurants to choose from. 4 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Couples, small groups, or anyone who wants proper time away will find this hits the spot. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Ancona has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A July departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
