SUNNY SAILING IN THE GREEK ISLES
From the blackened cliffs of Santorini to the sun-drenched beaches of Corfu, to the ancient Christian relics of Patmos, a tour of the Greek Islands is a whirlwind of seemingly impossible contradictions. Yet, for passengers aboard a cruise ship, the line between desert and oasis, history and myth,
past and future, quickly evaporates as this living encyclopedia of Western history comes to life amid the plush trappings of modern luxury.
In Mykonos, you’ll experience a stirring example of the Greek Islands’ seamless blend of modern energy and ancient tradition. With its dazzling white houses, blue doorways and shutters, rocky beaches and windmills, Mykonos offers a picture-postcard vision of the Greece you’ve always imagined. But the bustling streets and colorful taverns create an international ambiance that's impossible to resist.
A short jaunt south takes you to the intriguing island of Santorini, situated in the caldera of the vast, extinct volcano that destroyed Minoan civilization 3,500 years ago. Take the road from town to explore Ancient Thira from the second millennium B.C., or follow the curving track up the hillside to the once mighty rock sanctuary of Isis and Osiris. As you explore a perfectly preserved Mycenaean city from the dawn of civilizations, you’ll feel the boundary between past and present disappearing before your eyes.
From Santorini, let the Mediterranean breezes carry you to the stunning island of Rhodes. Lush and wooded, with incredible beaches and views, Rhodes also boasts mazes of ancient streets, ornate archways and some of the richest museums in Greece. Sokrates Street, flanked by bazaars, bustles with activity. Attractions of interest on this island include the magnificent Suleiman Mosque and Grand Master’s Palace, which sits on the highest point in the town of Rhodes.
Upon arrival on the unspoiled island of Patmos, expect to be greeted with the sound of church bells
– there are 300-plus churches in all on this small isle. Magnificent seascapes are seemingly everywhere you turn in Patmos, so beaches are a natural draw, but you’ll also want to take in some of the extraordinary sights, including the Monastery of St. John, Cave of the Apocalypse, and the medieval town of Hora.
Whatever you seek, whether it’s relaxation, exploration or education, you’ll find that a voyage in the Greek Isles aboard a luxurious cruise ship offers an experience as diverse as the civilizations that rose and fell there, and an adventure you won’t forget.
