Cruise Description |
Cruise the Greek Islands with Azamara®
Your Greek adventure begins in Athens before calling on Chania for the first of three late stays in a row. Relax on a beach or discover a family-owned wine estate, then it’s on to Agios Nikolaos—a hidden gem that blends the charm of a small fishing village with the glamor of a chic resort town. On a late stay in Rhodes, explore one of Europe’s best-preserved medieval cities before cruising on to Patmos, where you’ll feel humbled at the Monastery of Saint John the Theologian.
Mykonos is next on the agenda, famed for its brilliant whitewashed structures, bright blue roofs, and gorgeous, sun-drenched harbor views. Your voyage concludes with an overnight in enigmatic Istanbul. Let the city take you on a journey of discovery, starting with the iconic Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque.
Cruise Highlights
On Santorini, the village of Akrotiri with its well-reserved ruins is often called Greece’s answer to Pompeii.
Don’t miss the district of Little Venice on Mykonos with its 16th-century Venetian windmills.
When in Istanbul, grab a kebab at a local kebapçıs, to meet friendly locals and be caught up in their love of life.
In Athens, don’t miss landmarks like the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Ancient Agora, and of course, the Acropolis.
In Patmos, visit the Cave of the Apocalypse where John the Apostle stayed in A.D. 95.
On the isle of Rhodes, the medieval town of Lindos features houses stacked like giant sugar cubes on a steep hill. |
