The itinerary, port by port
12 calls over 13 nights, Fusina (Venice) to Piraeus (Athens). Open any port for my full day-ashore guide, what to see, when to go, and how the day actually runs.
Getting there: Flights to Fusina (Venice) (VCE) are already bookable for these dates. I watch the fare for booked clients so you book at the right moment. When to book your flights →
Fusina is a cruise terminal on the mainland edge of the Venetian Lagoon, about three miles west of Venice across the water, opened in fall 2024 as ships moved out of the historic city. Port guide →
Rovinj is the Venetian-flavored fishing town on Croatia's Istrian coast, a tight knot of pastel houses on a former island rising to a single hilltop church. Port guide →
