Good to Know
One night in an Athens hotel before a 7 night cruise.Itinerary
Athens (Piraeus), Greece
Following your flight to Athens, you will have an overnight stay in a hotel. In the morning, make your way to the port to board the Scarlet Lady.
An intersection of the past and present
Athens – Europe’s action packed, oldest capital, considered to many as an archaeological theme park. As you approach the port of Piraeus you’ll find its entryway lined with visitors eager to be catapulted into one of the most exciting spectacles on the planet.
Santorini, Greece
The ultimate Greek Isle
Blue domes, windmills and white buildings sloping down a volcanic mountainside — yes, this is *that* postcard-worthy island whose stunning images are plastered on positive affirmation backdrops and smartphone homescreens alike, but now it’s yours to experience IRL.
At Sea
Bodrum, Turkey
Bodrum is a bit like St-Tropez, only with belly dancers. Yachts slide into the town’s twin harbours, mooring in front of smart waterfront restaurants, and wood-decked beach clubs call out to the beautiful crowd. The scenery is postcard-pretty, too. Think whitewashed houses framed by bougainvillea, and olive-green hillsides that melt into the Aegean.
Rhodes, Greece
The island of Rhodes is just waiting for you when your cruise takes you to the eastern Mediterranean Sea. Its northernmost headland is straddled by Rhodes Town, by far the largest town on the island, in full view of Turkey less than 20km north.
The ancient city that occupied this site, laid out during the fifth century BC by Hippodamos of Miletos, was almost twice the size of its modern counterpart, and at over 100,000 held more than double its population. While the fortified enclave now known as the Old Town is of more recent construction, created by the Knights Hospitaller in the fourteenth century, it’s one of the finest medieval walled cities you could ever hope to see.
A Mediterranean cruise excursion to Rhodes will recall one of the lost Seven Wonders of the Ancient World: the Colossus, an ancient statue of Apollo erected to commemorate the 305 BC siege, which supposedly straddled the entrance to Mandhráki harbour.
Mykonos, Greece
Thanks to its proximity to the mainland, Mykonos was one of the first Greek islands to become an international travel destination. During the late ’60s and early ’70s, Mykonos was famed as a haunt for the rich. The island’s nightlife – then and now – was a glittering whirl of colored lights, music, and parties. But there’s another side to Mykonos – the neighboring island of Delos. In classical mythology, Delos was the birthplace of Apollo and his twin sister Artemis. Travelers to Delos can stroll among the island’s vast ruins, which include three temples consecrated to the Sun God and the famed Lions Walk. Mykonos town features hip boutiques, restaurants, jewelry stores, souvenirs, taverns and cafés. The island’s famed windmills are found just south of the waterfront.
Athens (Piraeus), Greece
Your cruise comes to an end as you sail back to Athens.
Following breakfast, you will disembark and make your way to the airport for your flight back to Dublin.
