CALYPSO

Boarding begins at 9:00 AM, and the departure time is 12:00 PM towards the island of Mykonos.

This is the ideal time to enjoy the sun on the deck, marvel at the deep blue of the Aegean, or join one of the activities and services offered on board.

On this cruise, Greca Travel includes a full-board meal plan, as well as limited alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks during meals, so you can concentrate on having a great time!

Mykonos is a meeting point of the international "jet set", known for its wonderful beaches, exclusive shops, and unbeatable nightlife. Its historic center attracts the attention of travelers for its whitewashed houses, and its narrow and labyrinthine streets invite us to get lost in their corners.

Before leaving for Santorini, you will have free time to enjoy the island's vibrant nightlife, from 19:00 PM to 02:00 AM.

Greca Tip: On step 1/3 of booking, you can add optional shore excursions organized by the same cruise company, and make the best out of every stop!

After a quiet navigation, at around 07:00 AM you will arrive at the wonderful island of Santorini, regarded by many as the lost continent of Atlantis.

Approaching the island is a fascinating experience and a fantastic opportunity to capture with your camera the beauty of Oia, with its white houses perched on the cliff overlooking the volcano.

Santorini presents the perfect combination of archeological sites, black sand beaches, an active volcano, and magnificent sunsets; all of these form a part of its romantic and picturesque identity. Whenever someone thinks of the Greek islands, Santorini is bound to come up right on top!

You will have enough free time to immerse yourself in the magical atmosphere of the island! You can visit the caldera and the two small islands of Nea and Palea Kameni, with their hot springs of green and yellow waters, or simply venture out on land.

At around 14:00 hours, you will set sail again to continue your sea journey.

Greca Tip: Explore the winding and narrow streets of Fira, taste its local wines, and savor the excellent local cuisine.

At 06:00 hrs, after a peaceful and comfortable night's cruising, you will awaken on the Turkish coast and at the port of Kusadasi.

From this point, you can explore at your own pace the ancient city of Ephesus once visited by Saint Paul, Mark Antony, and Cleopatra, among others. Ephesus was one of the twelve Ionian cities and flourished as an important cultural, religious, and commercial center.

At noon, the cruise will leave port and sail, this time towards the island of Patmos, where Saint John wrote the Apocalypse and where Jesus Christ appeared to him in the Grotto of the Apocalypse or Book of Revelation.

From 16:00 hrs to 20:00 hrs, you will have free time to visit the Holy Cave of the Apocalypse, the Monastery of Saint John the Theologian and to stroll in the port of this small but so important island.

Tip Greca: You can buy a souvenir from the quaint little shops at the port of Skala and Xerotigana, a deep-fried kind of pastry with abundant use of honey and cinnamon.

At 7:00 AM, and after gentle navigation, while you enjoy the comfort and services that the cruise offers, you will arrive at the port of Piraeus.

After breakfast, one of our representatives will drive you to Athens International Airport.

Having spent a few fantastic days with Greca, we hope to see you again soon to create new and extraordinary moments that will be lovingly etched in your memory!

Have a nice trip! Or, as Greeks say, "Kaló taksídi!"

Greca Tip: You may extend your stay by adding extra nights during step 1 of 3 of your reservation.
