Generally the duration of a cruise is 7 nights but it depends on the needs of every person. There are itineraries of longer duration or mini cruises for an original weekend.

Greek islands cruise, which ship to choose?

Ships offering cruises to the Greek islands cannot be too large in size, so you can get close to the small islands and sail smoothly even in the shallowest waters. For example, we recommend MSC Opera, Costa Pacifica, Explorer Of The Seas or Norwegian Jade. There are many exclusive companies with small luxury yachts that offer itineraries to discover the less touristy and more authentic islands: for example, if you want a wellness vacation, travel with Celestyal Cruises, Variety Cruises or Explora Journeys is the best choice.

Cruises to the Greek islands usually take place from March to November. The best months for a cruise to Greece are May, June and September: the prices are low, the weather is pleasantly mild and you are not likely to find queues and crowds. For those who want maximum savings and relaxed sightseeing October and November are certainly the best months. July and August are definitely the most popular months; we recommend booking in advance to find the best cabins and excursions available.
