Tour Overview

Cruise to the Greek Islands and the Turkish Riviera from Athens

Boarding begins at the port of Lavrion at about 8:30 AM, and the ship is scheduled to leave the port at 1:00 PM.

Sailing the Aegean in the morning is the ideal time of the day to observe its deep blue color, enjoy the sun on deck or entertain yourself by joining in one of the many activities and services offered by the cruise company. Onboard, Greca Travel includes a full-board meal plan along with a package of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages during our meals, so our only concern is to have a good time.

Your first destination will be the glamorous island of Mykonos, where the cruise ship will dock from 18:00 until 23:00 hours, before continuing your tour around the wonderful Greek islands.

After a generous breakfast, your cruise ship will drop anchor at the largest Greek island: Crete. More precisely, you will arrive in Heraklion, the island's capital and home of King Minos and the ferocious Minotaur.

Heraklion was the most significant city of the Minoan civilization, with the oldest palatial complex in Europe, the Palace of Knossos.

You will have a free morning to explore this vibrant, working, small metropolis, and then, at around noon, you will depart for the amazing and picturesque island of Santorini.
