Cruise Description |
8 Night Cruise sailing from Athens to Venice aboard Crystal Symphony.
Starting in the shadow of the Acropolis, this springtime voyage around the eastern Mediterranean is simply lovely. Your first destination is the whitewashed cobbled streets of Mykonos before sailing to Chania in Crete and pretty Kefalonia. Italy’s Monopoli is everything you want it to be: ancient towns, extravagant churches, plus olive-green seas and food to equal all of Italy; then it is Games of Thrones grandeur in Dubrovnik and Trogir. End your adventure in the watery beauty of Venice.
Highlights of this cruise:
Athens
Experience the vibrant and historic port of Piraeus, Athens' gateway to the Aegean islands and beyond, and find a rich maritime heritage, a bustling local culture, and access to the wonders of Athens. Venture through Greece’s largest port city, Piraeus, as you make your way to the cradle of Western culture and the birthplace of democracy. Athens, among the world's oldest cities with a history spanning 3,400 years, has long been the location of myth and muse, and its ancient heritage is still an incredible source of inspiration. Here, the Acropolis crowns the city as home to the Parthenon and other legendary temples and monuments.
Mykonos
Experience the famed summer destination for the international scene; Mykonos, a glitzy island featuring whitewashed buildings, azure waters, and lively nightlife. Mykonos, a former 18th-century pirates' bastion, is now a sophisticated and cosmopolitan island resort. This quintessential Greek island offers a maze of winding streets, graceful windmills, inviting beaches, domed churches and whitewashed houses accented in blue. Dotting the waterfront are cafés, taverns and tempting shops. Guests may spend the day exploring the island independently. Feel free to investigate its fine boutiques and pleasant, labyrinthine streets.
Dubrovnik
Dubrovnik is one of the most recognizable cities in Europe. Behind the walls, find sleek Venetian-style buildings and a rich Slavic culture. Home to lavender, olive oil, and gorgeous beaches, Dubrovnik will leave a lasting impression on all your senses.
Venice
One of the world`s most enchanting cities, Venice is comprised of more than 100 separate islands and a labyrinthine of canals laced together by a string of 400 intricate bridges. A whimsical stroll through the city leads to a hidden world of ornately decorated piazzas and a legacy of Baroque architecture. Admire the richness of St. Mark`s Basilica and the lavishness of the Palazzo Ducale. |
