Day-by-day itinerary
- Day1
Piraeus

Kusadasi
Arrive 07:00 · Depart 15:00
A resort town on Turkey's Aegean coast that serves as the cruise gateway to ancient Ephesus, one of the best-preserved classical cities in the Mediterranean. Pigeon Island guards the harbour, and the marble Library of Celsus lies a short drive inland.

Corfu
Arrive 13:00 · Depart 21:00

Bari
Arrive 07:00 · Depart 14:00
A port city on Italy's Adriatic coast, the regional capital of Puglia at the country's southeastern heel. Its old quarter winds around the basilica of San Nicola, and home cooks hand-roll orecchiette pasta in the narrow lanes.

- Day7
Trieste
Arrive 09:00
A port city in northeast Italy near the Slovenian border, long the seaward gateway of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Grand Habsburg-era squares open onto the Adriatic, with the seafront Piazza Unità d'Italia and the white Miramare Castle on the bay.
