A package designed to add a different flavor to your trip with each destination you will visit. You start with a visit to the historical Athens, a modern city so intertwined with its ancient roots that you can be strolling down the busy downtown streets filled with bars and restaurants and out of the blue encounter ancient ruins standing before you! A true ambassador of Mediterranean cuisine, Greek delicacies will add an unexpected culinary dimension to your journey. You will embark upon a 4-day cruise that will take you to a multitude of destinations in Greece and Turkey.

You will start your sea voyage around the Aegean in the cosmopolitan island of Mykonos, renowned for its nightlife as much as it is for its imposing whitewashed houses built in the classic Cycladic style. In Kusadasi, one of Turkey's principle holiday resorts, you will experience a fusion of the Hellenic world with the Orient before you move on to the unique mystical experience on the "The Jerusalem of the Aegean", the island of Patmos, famous for the Cave of the Apocalypse, where Saint John wrote the book of Revelations. The following day a short visit to Crete and the Minoan Palace of Knossos is in order, before stopping to the very definition of romance that is Santorini. Watch the famous Santorinian sunset from the top of the Imerovigli as the sky turns gold and the Aegean illuminates. Is there a better way to end such a magnificent experience?
