About This Cruise
The 23 Night Mediterranean Mosaic: Turkey, Greece, Croatia & Italy is a 23-night one-way itinerary aboard Seabourn Ovation. You board in Istanbul and disembark in Civitavecchia (Rome), calling at 21 ports across 8 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Turkey (Istanbul, Canakkale), Greece (Volos, Patmos, Rhodes and 3 more), Montenegro (Kotor), Croatia (Korcula, Hvar, Sibenik), Slovenia (Piran), Italy (Venice) and 2 more, among others.
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Istanbul and home from Civitavecchia (Rome), so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 3 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
