Itineraries
in the Aegean Sea
Map_of_Saronic-Cyclades.jpg)
There are many island groups in the Aegean
Sea, each of them with its own culture and specific architecture.
The ones we chose as our cruising area for the first 6 weeks
of the summer 2008 are the Saronic islands and the Cyclades
which are the closest to Athens and are well known for their
white-washed picturesque villages
and volcanic rocky terrain.
All
of these cruises will be starting and finishing at Piraeus
which is the port of Athens and
there are plenty of options for the itinerary, depending on
whether you are coming for a one or two week holiday. As the
islands of the Saronic are closer to Athens and the
distances between them are shorter, they would actually be a
better option for a 7 day cruise. On a 14 day cruise we can
sail around most of the islands of the Cyclades and
even get as far south as Santorini.
Ideally your cruise will start
on the day of your arrival (unless you arrive late in the evening),
so the first night will not be spent in Athens. At
the end of the cruise we will spend the last night at the port
of Athens, so that the next morning you can catch your
flight and the following week's guests can come onboard.
Below
are just a few options for the itineraries
that we can follow, but there actually many more possibilities.
