The Ship
Your home for all 24 nights aboard P&O Aurora — so you unpack once and wake up somewhere new each morning.
About This Cruise
The 24 Night Grand Mediterranean is a 24-night round-trip itinerary aboard P&O Aurora. You board and return in Southampton, calling at 12 ports across 10 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in England (Southampton), Spain (Cadiz), Sicily (Palermo), Malta (La Valletta), Greece (Piraeus), Turkey (Kusadasi, Bodrum) and 2 more, among others.
Because it's round-trip from Southampton, you fly into and out of a single city and unpack just once. Longer hops are crossed on the 12 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.
