Trip #1 Greek Islands Cruise

Athens, Greece

Athens, historically significant as the birthplace of drama, history, poetry, and philosophy, now serves as a premier archaeological site, showcasing its rich cultural heritage. The Parthenon, dedicated to the virgin goddess Athena, remains a prominent symbol, situated on the Athenian Acropolis and visible throughout the city. Visitors are encouraged to explore the Acropolis Museum, a remarkable structure completed in 2009 through the collaboration of an American and a Greek architect. The museum highlights the Greek period from 5 B.C., regarded as a pinnacle of ancient art, culture, and philosophy, while also displaying artifacts from the Bronze, Roman, and Byzantine Ages. A unique feature of the museum is a Plexiglas walkway that provides views of an excavated ancient Athenian neighborhood. Beyond its historical significance, modern Athens offers a variety of attractions, including scenic beaches, exceptional Mediterranean dining, and vibrant central markets.

Santorini is known for its iconic Greek seascape, characterized by whitewashed houses with sea-blue roofs. The island is a valuable destination for both professional and amateur archaeology enthusiasts, featuring sites such as ancient tombs from the 9th century and the sanctuary of Apollo. Santorini's unique landscape is shaped by its volcanic history, with homes and windmills situated on a caldera formed by a past eruption.

The island's volcanic soil has contributed to the cultivation of high-quality grapes, making its wines notable for exploration during your visit. Some of the best wineries can be found in the villages of Pyrgos, Megalochori, and Oia. Oia is particularly renowned for its stunning sunsets and is home to the ancient Minoan site of Akrotiri.

Visitors can ascend to the top for expansive views of the city, the shimmering gulf, and the surrounding hills. Thessaloniki is often described as an open-air museum of Byzantine art, featuring a wealth of historical sites including 5th-century churches, archaeological sites, a 13th-century bathhouse, as well as various archaeological and contemporary art museums.
