12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 1: Athens

Day 2 Day 2: Athens
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 2: Athens

This morning, join us for a visit to Athens and the Acropolis. We’ll explore the Acropolis, an ancient religious center in Athens, which includes the Temple of Athena Nike and the iconic Parthenon. After our visit, enjoy a coach tour of the capital of Greece. The afternoon can be spent on an excursion to the Apollo Coast and Cape Sounion. The route along the coast travels around the rim of the Saronic Gulf all the way to Cape Sounion. The promontory on the southernmost tip of the Attic peninsula looks west towards Patroklos, across the Aegean Sea. The cape is most noted for the ruins of the Temple of Poseidon, dating back to the Golden Age of Athens. After our tour, we’ll begin to cruise towards Delos.
Day 3 Day 3: Delos - Mykonos
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 3: Delos - Mykonos

This morning, join us for an excursion to the island of Delos (travel to and from the island will be done in rowboats). Delos has been considered a sacred island since ancient times. Greek mythology recounts the island as the birthplace of both Apollo and Artemis, and it has played an important role over many millennia as a religious and economic center. We'll visit the sanctuary dedicated to Apollo, the Terrace of the Lions, and several ruins of homes with superb mosaic art. In the afternoon, we'll set out on an excursion to the island of Mykonos. It sits tall among the Cyclades and is dotted with charming Mediterranean villages. It is also known for its idyllic, golden beaches leading to the pristine, turquoise waters. We’ll visit the Monastery of Panagia Tourliani, the official protector of the island. Built in the 1500s, tourists visit it not only for the religious experience but for its outstanding architecture. The whitewashed exterior and colored dome houses an impressive wooden altar screen, decorated with icons of saints and flowers. We'll return to Mykonos Town to take in the pure charm of the city, one of the biggest attractions after the beach. After our tour, we’ll begin to cruise towards Santorini.
Day 4 Day 4: Santorini
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 4: Santorini

This morning, join us for an excursion to the island of Santorini (travel to and from the island will be done in rowboats). Spend your time taking in the picturesque sites on the island, admiring the scenery from impressive vistas, or enjoying local delicacies at the Mediterranean cafés and restaurants. Our coach will bring us up to the monastery of Profitis Ilias, which offers full panoramic views of the island from the 18th-century sanctuary. We'll then head one of the most striking villages on the island, Megalochori, to enjoy the ambiance of its historic mansions and old traditional houses. We'll stop off at a wine cellar for a tasting* of the local spirits. The gorgeous village of Fira, perched on the edge of a high caldera that faces west across the sea, will be our last stop. We’ll begin to cruise to Rhodes.
Day 5 Day 5: Rhodes
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 5: Rhodes

In the morning, join us for a visit to ancient and medieval Rhodes. Our first stop will be Monte Smith and its splendid panoramic view of the island and the surrounding seascapes. We’ll pass through the impressive d’Amboise Gate to the highest point within the fortifications, the Palace of the Grand Master, an imposing fortress with relics from the medieval period as well as ancient sculptures and beautiful 1st-century mosaics. Our tour will continue on the Street of the Knights. Completely restored and beautifully preserved, it is lined by the buildings where holy warriors spent their time in prayer or military practice. Each building is an ‘inn’ for the language spoken according to the knights’ birthplace: England, France, Germany, Italy, Aragon, Auvergne, or Provence. A distinct, noble ambiance still seems to float in the air. What we see now, though, owes much to Italian restorations during the 1930s. Our ship will cruise to Cyprus overnight.
Day 6 Day 6: Limassol
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 6: Limassol

We’ll spend the morning cruising. After lunch, join us for a tour of the archaeological ruins in Paphos, classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We'll visit the impressive, underground tombs dating back to the 4th century BC that sport a distinct Egyptian influence. The remains of villas, palaces, theaters, fortresses, and tombs mean that the site is of exceptional architectural and historical value. We’ll continue to the coastal town of Yeroskipou to visit a Loukoum (Turkish Delight) factory, including a tasting. After our tour, we’ll return on board and begin to cruise to Larnaca.
Day 7 Day 7: Larnaca
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 7: Larnaca
