From Trieste to Athens (Piraeus)
From Trieste to Athens (Piraeus)
6 December
Almost encircled by the territory of neighbouring Slovenia, the Adriatic port of Trieste has always stood slightly apart from the rest of Italy, and the city's former status as a free port under Austrian rule is reflected in the handsome Habsburg architecture.

Obviously don’t miss the Acropolis, nor the new adjacent museum, where space has pointedly been left for the frieze we call the Elgin Marbles – it is really excellent. Then take time to stroll on the hills and slopes around the outcrop.
The ship
Sailing from late 2027, Oceania Aurelia is the result of a complete redesign of Oceania Nautica, reducing the guest capacity and reimagining the ship's onboard spaces to create an intimate yet spacious vessel, purposefully designed for extended global journeys.
What we love
Oceania Aurelia will debut in late 2027 as the result of a programme which will completely reimagine and enhance Oceania Nautica. The ship's guest capacity will be reduced from 670 to 476 and over half the accommodation will be designed as spacious suites, before re-emerging as Oceania Aurelia, a ship which will undertake longer voyages including the 2028 and 2029 World Cruises and several Grand Journeys.

Tailor-make your trip
At Mundy, we have long been hunting for the perfect Athenian hotel - our favourite so far is the Electra Palace in Plaka.
Delphi is an absolute must – you’ll need a full day though, it’s quite a drive.
