Cruising the Mediterranean in style, but on a budget!

Posted on by Kenneth Reece, Agent of Modern Travel Professionals

I’ve found an amazing Mediterranean cruise that may just check off a couple of destinations on your Travel Bucket List! On April 1, 2025 the Majestic Princess will sail a 10-Day voyage out of the Roman port of Civitavecchia. You’ll visit Italy, Greece & Turkey on this amazing Grand Mediterranean Cruise.

Itinerary:

Tuesday, April 1, 2025 — Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy — Embarkation

April 2 — At Sea

April 3 — Corfu, Greece

April 4 — At Sea

April 5 — Santorini, Greece

April 6 — Kusadasi, Turkey (For Ephesus)

April 7 — Athens, Greece

April 8 — At Sea

April 9 — Sicily, Italy

April 10 — Naples, Italy (For Capri & Pompeii)

Friday, April 11 — Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy — Disembarkation

I believe this to be an amazing itinerary, as it allows a few days at sea between ports to rest & relax from all the exploring you can do ashore. Last November I visited this part of the world on a different Princess ship, and we went to several of these ports that you will visit. My biggest surprise was the port of Kusadasi in Turkey. I absolutely loved exploring Ephesus here, and the market at the port was simply fascinating…it’s a place that I would like to revisit in depth!

Now, here comes the pricing…when I priced this out on the morning of January 31, 2024 I was shocked at the cost. I couldn’t believe how affordable it is!

The total price for two people (sharing one cabin) is:
Category IB (Inside) $3,456.00

Category BB (Balcony) $4,656.00

Category MB (Mini-Suite) $5,256.00

AND this pricing includes the Princess Plus amenites of: Dining, accommodations & entertainment, Taxes, Port fees, MedallionClass experience, Crew Gratuities, Plus Beverage Package, Wi-Fi (one device per guest, but can log off one, and log into another device), Premium Desserts (2 per day), Fitness Classes (2 per cruise), Unlimited Juice Bar, 2 Casual dining meals per guest, Ocean Now delivery, & Room Service Delivery. 

Of course, different categories are available besides these three, and pricing can (and does) change. 

And, by booking with me, you’ll receive an additional $75.00 onboard credit to use however you wish while on the ship!

You can check out the beautiful Majestic Princess here.

Do you have any questions about cruising with Princess? Currently, Princess is my favorite cruise line, and is my go-to for my personal vacations. 

On a Princess cruise, you’ll fill your days and nights with events that match your interests.  Original programs from award-winning talent; family-friendly activities based on hit Discovery & Animal Planet TV shows;  destination-themed offerings — all make the most of every moment at sea.  You’ll dine on fresh, regional cuisine that gives you a better appreciation of the places you visit.  You’ll savor sauces made from scratch, breads baked fresh 24/7, freshly-made pasta, and homemade ice cream created every day.  Food is a big part of the travel experience, and Princess wants each meal to be a celebration of your vacation.

Give me a shout, and let’s get you booked on this amazing itinerary. Book now, before prices rise!

Hi, I’m Kenneth Reece — and I help make unforgettable vacations feel effortless. With 50 cruises under my belt (and more in the works!), I specialize in bucket-list travel experiences for grown-up travelers who want something a little more meaningful, a little more personal, and a lot more fun. Whether you're cruising the blue waters of the Caribbean, exploring the stunning coastlines of Alaska, or soaking in the magic of Europe one cobblestone street at a time — I’m here to help you plan a trip you’ll always remember. Lately, river cruising has completely captured my heart. There’s just something special about waking up each morning in a new European town, with your floating boutique hotel waiting to take you to the next charming stop. I love pairing these river cruises with guided land tours for a perfect balance of sightseeing and relaxation. Princess Cruises has long been one of my favorites at sea, but I’ve sailed with many cruise lines and know how to match each client with the right one for them. I’ve also experienced the Disney magic around the world — from Disneyland and Walt Disney World to Tokyo and Paris — and I bring that same sense of wonder and thoughtful planning into everything I do. Whether you're celebrating a milestone, traveling solo, or just need help making sense of all the choices out there, I’m here to be your guide. I love helping clients as much — or as little — as they prefer. From the first conversation to the moment you return home, you’ll know someone has your back. Let’s make your next trip easy, exciting, and completely tailored to you.
