About This Cruise

In sequence the voyage takes in Turkey (Istanbul, Kusadasi), Greece (Rhodes, Katakolon), Sicily (Messina), Italy (Civitavecchia), Sicily (Palermo, Messina), Greece (Corfu) and 2 more, among others.
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Istanbul and home from Barcelona, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book.
