In this episode of Big Blend Radio's "Wander the World with Sharon" Podcast, award-winning travel writer and photographer Sharon K. Kurtz shares highlights from her unforgettable small ship cruise through Greece and Italy aboard Windstar Cruises' Star Legend. Sailing the "A Piece of Greece, A Slice of Italy" itinerary, Sharon explains why small ship cruising offers a more relaxed, immersive, and personalized way to experience the Mediterranean.

From docking steps away from charming ports and exploring picturesque villages at your own pace to savoring local cuisine, breathtaking coastal scenery, and attentive onboard service, Sharon discusses what sets boutique-style cruising apart from larger cruise ships. She also shares why traveling during the shoulder season offers fewer crowds, pleasant weather, and excellent value.

Whether you're dreaming of your first Mediterranean cruise or looking for a slower, more intimate way to travel, this episode is filled with practical tips and inspiring experiences.
