7 Night Eastern Mediterranean Cruise aboard the MSC Lirica

Share

Join the MSC Lirica and prepare yourself for seven nights of exciting sailing through on the Mediterranean from Athens and back!

This trip is noteworthy because you'll only visit more exotic ports like Bari, Kuşadası, and Istanbul. This route is an unusual one for the Lirica, But this is the best deal on it.

We include all entertainment, meals, port fees, and taxes in our price, so there are no sneaky extra fees. Coming in at less than $75 per day for an outside cabin, this deal is excellent.


The MSC Lirica

The Lirica MSC, based in the Mediterranean and refurbished only five years ago in 2021, is the namesake of MSC's Lirica class and can carry more than 1,900 guests.

The Lirica MSC is home to a casino, a ping pong table, a solarium, a gym, a spa, and a jacuzzi.
