Greek Island Cruises - Explore
the marvels of Art & Architecture
Explore the lands where Western Civilization was born and where the fine art of living has been
perfected ever since. Greek Island Cruises present an enjoyable combination of natural beauty, azure seas and an
introduction to an amazing culture with a history that dates back to early pre-historic times.
Our Greek Island cruises offer a choice of the more famous ports, as well as some of the
more remote and quiet spots in Europe. Among the many ports that we offer are Santorini, Mykonos, Rhodes &
Crete. In addition, some Greek Island cruises include a few other ports in the Mediterranean such as Istanbul and
Kusadasi, Turkey or Venice, Italy.
You'll find beautiful beaches, white-washed buildings and blue-domed churches along the way, plus magnificent
antiquities and ruins of ancient civilizations. Shoppers will also love cruising through the Greek Islands, as the
country's low cost of living offers visitors some great buys.

Find the right cruise:
There are many options to choose from when selecting which Greek Island cruise is right for you, but all will lead
to an unforgettable vacation. Many cruises are round trip from Athens, Greece, sometimes listed as Piraeus, the sea
port for this expansive capital. Piraeus is a short (20-30 minute) train ride from the center of Athens. Once in
Piraeus, it is easiest to take a taxi to the ship, since you will have luggage with you.
One of the possible cruise programs is a round trip Athens cruise that sails through the Cyclades (Santorini,
Mykonos, Delos), to Kusadasi, Turkey, the gateway to Ephesus. This is one of the most important archeological sites
in Europe. Here many of the original buildings still stand including ancient amphitheater. Some itineraries also
include some other ports on the Turquoise coast.
However, if you would like to concentrate on Greece, other itineraries will sail south, through the Cyclades and
down to the Island of Crete. Crete is home to Knossos Palace, the largest remaining site of the Bronze Age
architecture on the island.
Some other itineraries travel from Athens to Istanbul, or the reverse. These cruises allow passengers to
spend more time in Turkey, and experience the Black Sea.
An alternative and equally beautiful program sails from Athens to Venice through the Adriatic Sea and from Athens
to Rome.
Extend your vacation:
Most of us think of Greece as a series of beautiful islands. However, no trip to Greece is complete without
experiencing some of its mainland treasures. Historic sites in
Athens include the Acropolis, the Placa, the Academy of Athens and Mount Lycabettus should not be missed.
North of Athens, Greece becomes green and mountainous. In Meteora, 500 year old monasteries and convents are
perched high above the plains on sandstone pillars. It is a breathtaking sight, and well worth the energy needed to
climb all the stairs to the top.
Thessaloniki, is the second largest city in Greece and is the capital of Macedonia region. It has a younger feel to
it since it is the home of two large Greek Universities.
