Day 1   Piraeus (Athens), Greece

Your journey begins in Piraeus, the bustling port city and maritime gateway to Athens. Step off the ship, ready to embark on your Aegean adventure. History buffs can dive into ancient Greece with a guided tour of the Acropolis, marvelling at iconic structures like the Parthenon.

In the afternoon, lose yourself in the charming labyrinth of Plaka, a historic neighbourhood brimming with shops, cafes, and hidden gems waiting to be discovered.

 

Day 2   Santorini, Greece

Welcome to Santorini, a volcanic island with breathaking landscapes, such as the island’s caldera, a sunken volcanic crater surrounded by cliffs above the turquoise Aegean Sea.

Adventurers can hike from the village of Firostefani to the island’s most famous town of Oia, where they can explore the picturesque cliffside villages, with their distinct, blue-domed houses adding a splash of colour to the volcanic rock.

 

Day 3   Rhodes, Greece

Immerse yourself in the captivating island of Rhodes. Explore the UNESCO-listed medieval Old Town, a walled city with cobblestone streets, fortifications, and architectural gems such as the Palace of the Grand Masters.

Delve into Rhodes’ vibrant art scene by visiting the Museum of Modern Greek Art and the Old Town’s streets, where boutiques showcase the artwork of talented locals.

Plus, of course, the cuisine is also a proud staple of Rhodes, with the dishes providing a mouthwatering fusion of Greek and Turkish flavours, and there’s even the local specialty: loukoumades – that’s the Greek word for honey-soaked donuts!

 

Day 4   Bodrum, Turkey

With its rich history, museums and Turkish handicrafts to admire, Bodrum, a port city and district on Turkey’s southwestern coast, is a wonderful scene for travellers looking to immerse themselves in the local culture. Wandering through the harbour of this charming municipality, travellers will be in awe of the location’s medieval sentinel: Bodrum Castle.

There’s also the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, the tomb for King Mausolus in the 4th century BC. This a must-see for history lovers as it’s one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. And on top of this, shipwrecked treasures are just a museum visit away, with the Bodrum Museum of Underwater Archaeology providing a captivating collection of salvaged artifacts.

 

Day 5   Day at Sea

As your first full day at sea, this is a great opportunity to experience all the inclusive luxury onboard, such as over 20 eateries featuring menus created by Michelin-starred chefs, full Wi-Fi access all over the ship, group fitness classes such as Yoga and meditation, and awe-inspiring shows and other dedicated entertainment.

 

Days 6 and 7   Mykonos, Greece

Welcome to Mykonos, a playground of the rich and famous. Here the beaches are as beautiful as the nightlife is lively, with travellers enjoying soaking up the sun in the day and partying at night.

­­Scenic villages await, with Mykonos Town providing picturesque charm among the narrow alleyways and whitewashed, flower-adorned houses, all of which complement the island’s relaxing yet vibrant culture.

Just as pleasing to the senses is the delicious Mykonian cuisine, with unique specialties consisting of seafood, charcuterie platters, and much more.

 

Day 8   Piraeus (Athens), Greece

End this wonderful Greek story where it began: at Piraeus, the very gateway to the legendary city of Athens.

As you disembark from Piraeus and enjoy one more night in the ancient city of Athens before your homeward journey the next day.
