The pacing runs to 5 port days and 1 day at sea — time to enjoy the ship between stops.

About This Cruise
The 5 Night Mediterranean is a 5-night one-way itinerary aboard MSC Orchestra. You board in Piraeus (Athens) and disembark in Bari, calling at 5 ports across 3 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Greece (Piraeus), Turkey (Izmir, Istanbul), Greece (Corfu) and Italy (Bari).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Piraeus (Athens) and home from Bari, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 1 day 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.
