Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Samuel L. Jackson and Judge Mathis on a yacht together? Surely, a lot of money to burn. Well, as per reports, Johnson spent $7.5 million on the experience with his friends and their spouses. The luxury yacht’s charter prices were around $1.25 million weekly and the group spent six weeks traveling and exploring new places!
The voyage was in August 2023 but photographs recently resurfaced, as reported by ‘Finurah’. Their adventures started in Antibes, France. From there, they headed to Italy and visited places like Portoffino, Capriccioli and Capri. They also visited Greece and Montenegro before ending the journey in Dubrovnik, Croatia. So, they visited five countries in total.
The group participated in day excursions. They also stayed in San Dominico Palace in Taormina and the Four Seasons hotel in Sicily. While these places are quite expensive, they still aren’t comparable to the cost of renting a luxury yacht. Magic Johnson, who officially became a Billionaire in October 2023, surely did not hold back in splurging on the trip. But what did he have to say about the vacation?

Johnson surely enjoyed the Mediterranean food and entertainment. In fact, he even dressed as a Greek God.
