Itinerary
Arrive in Athens and check into your hotel for three nights. As the original metropolis of western civilization, Athens is a fascinating blend of old and new. Spend some time walking around to sample the sights and sounds of this ancient city.
After breakfast you will be picked up in your hotel lobby for your Athens Sightseeing Tour.Athens Sightseeing Tour: The striking contrast between breathtaking monuments of a glorious past and modern, elegant structures of the present is what you will enjoy during your...
After breakfast, you will be transferred to the port of Piraeus, where you will board the cruise ship which will be your home for the next three days and nights. Your first stop will be the picturesque island of Mykonos, with its dazzling whitewashed houses and blue-domed churches.
Leaving Mykonos you’ll cruise across the Aegean to the interesting port city of Kusadasi, Turkey. An optional excursion will take you to the ancient biblical city of Ephesus—one of the world’s largest archaeological sites.
Another overnight sail brings you to Patmos where you will visit Chora, St. John’s Monastery and the Holy Grotto of the Apocalypse, which for centuries have drawn pilgrims to Patmos for prayer, esoteric seclusion and solemnity.
On Santorini, visit Athinios, Profitis Ilias, Oia, and Fira before returning to Athens.
After breakfast, continue on to your next Avanti destination!
