SAT · 17 Jul 2027Athens (Piraeus) · EmbarkationDeparture 19:00
Piraeus is the gateway to Athens, Europe's oldest major city. The Acropolis with the Parthenon has towered over the city for 2,500 years - surrounded by a lively café culture and one of the finest fish markets in the Aegean.
-
SUN · 18 Jul 2027Paros (Paros)Arrival 08:00 Departure 21:30
Paros combines Cycladic architecture with a relaxed atmosphere: the village of Naoussa with its Venetian harbour, the Byzantine Katapoliani church and crystal-clear water for swimming make Paros the most charming secondary destination in the Cyclades.
-
MON · 19 Jul 2027Souda Bay (Crete)Arrival 08:00 Departure 19:00
Near the town of Chania on the northern coast of the Greek island of Crete lies Souda Bay. It ranks among the largest natural harbours in the Mediterranean and today also serves as an important NATO naval base.
-
TUE · 20 Jul 2027MilosArrival 08:00 Departure 18:30
Milos owes its shape to its volcanic past, and the evidence is everywhere: at Sarakiniko, wind and water have polished the rock into a moon-white landscape unlike anywhere else in the Aegean. In 1820 a farmer here unearthed the Aphrodite of Milos, known the world over as the Venus de Milo and now in the Louvre. In the fishing village of Klima the syrmata run down to the water, brightly painted boathouses where the fishing boats once wintered. More than 70 coves, each tinted a different shade of volcanic rock, make Milos the most varied of the Cyclades.

WED · 21 Jul 2027KusadasiArrival 08:00 Departure 23:00
Kusadasi on Turkey's Aegean coast is the gateway to the ancient city of Ephesus - one of the best-preserved ruined cities in the world, with the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The historic centre and the bazaar invite a leisurely wander.
-
THU · 22 Jul 2027MykonosArrival 08:00 Departure 19:30
Mykonos is the most international of the Greek islands - whitewashed cube houses, blue domes, windmills and a nightlife that lasts until morning. Little Venice with its captains' balconies right above the sea is one of the most photographed scenes in Greece.
-
FRI · 23 Jul 2027GythionArrival 08:00 Departure 19:00
Gythion (Gythio) on the Mani peninsula of the Peloponnese once served as Sparta's port. The picturesque pastel-coloured houses along the harbour, the islet of Cranae (mythological love nest of Paris and Helen before their flight to Troy) and the Cycladic atmosphere make Gythion an unsung beauty of southern Greece.
