Cruise Description |
Cruise the Glorious Greek Isles
Your Greek adventure begins in Athens before cruising past the monasteries perched precariously on Mount Athos. Next, Kavala is your gateway to ancient Phillipi. Thessaloniki’s 15 UNESCO World Heritage sites await, as does a lively nightlife scene that you can soak up during an overnight stay. A late stay on vibrant Volos follows, then it’s on to another late night in Mykonos. When the sun goes down, discover why locals refer to this electric city as the Ibiza of Greece.
In Ephesus, discover the beautiful Library of Celsus and the house where Mary, Mother of Jesus, once lived. Stop in Santorini, where you can take the cable car up the mountain to witness an incredible sunset view, before concluding your voyage back in Athens.
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.
In Volos, visit the Meteora Monasteries. The former retreat for medieval monks is built hundreds of feet in the air on soaring sandstone rock faces.
When you call on Kavala, spend your day exploring historic Xanthi, the city of a thousand colors.
Head to the Citadel in Thessaloniki to enjoy a superb panoramic view of the city, with Mt. Olympus and the Thermaic Gulf in the background.
In Athens, don’t miss landmarks like the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Ancient Agora, and of course, the Acropolis. |
