About This Cruise
The 7 Night Journey To Antiquities is a 7-night one-way itinerary aboard Viking Neptune. You board in Kusadasi (Ephesus) and disembark in Cadiz, calling at 13 ports across 7 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Turkey (Kusadasi), Crete (Chania), Sicily (Messina), Italy (Naples, Civitavecchia), France (Villefranche, Marseille, Sete), Spain (Palma De Mallorca, Cartagena, Malaga) and 2 more.
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Kusadasi (Ephesus) and home from Cadiz, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 7 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.
