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.
Patmos
The Greek isle of Patmos has a rich Christian heritage - the Monastery of Saint John was founded in 1088 and is a UNESCO World Heritage site, as is the Cave of the Apocalypse, the grotto where John the Apostle received the visions he recorded in the Book of Revelation. The island’s white-sand beaches, secluded coves and beautiful marina make it a popular destination for worshippers of the sun.
Thessaloniki
A dynamic urban city in Greece where you'll find ancient ruins, stunning Byzantine architecture alongside modern streets and contemporary buzz. Vibrant Thessaloniki is home to incredible history while also being known for its dazzling nightlife. This coastal city is perfect for culture lovers as well as those seeking leisure and entertainment. Don’t forget to sample its local gastronomy, which is influenced by the east in its spices and flavors. |
