MSC Orchestra: 6-Night Mediterranean - Eastern

Athens cruise port is in Piraeus, a busy port city about 10 kilometers southwest of central Athens. Piraeus is its own city, not just a terminal, and it handles cruise ships, island ferries, and commercial traffic all at once.

Katakolon is a small fishing village on the western coast of the Peloponnese, with a permanent population of only about 700 people. It exists on cruise maps for one reason: ancient Olympia, the birthplace of the Olympic Games, is 45 minutes inland.

Corfu cruise port is one of the most visited stops on Eastern Mediterranean and Greek Islands itineraries. The island sits off Greece's northwestern coast, just a short ferry ride from the southern tip of Albania, and has a distinct cultural identity shaped by centuries of Venetian, French, and British rule rather than the Ottoman history that dominates other Greek islands.

Bari cruise port is the principal port of Italy's Apulia (Puglia) region on the Adriatic coast, about 450 kilometers southeast of Rome. Ships dock at the New Port, a short walk from Bari's old town (Bari Vecchia), a tangle of white-walled medieval streets wrapped around the cathedral and the Basilica of San Nicola.
