Never feel the twinge of FOMO again with a half day trip and four full-day excursions to all of Greece’s best landmarks and hidden gems all included in your trip! 

Your half-day trip will take you to bask in the wonder that is the mighty Acropolis, while your full-day tours are tailored to give you an inside scoop into many of Greece’s top sights and sites. We’re of course referring to incredible landmarks like the Corinth Canal, the Epidaurus Theater, Nafplion, Agamemnon's Tomb, Olympia, Meteora, and the unique Delphi. All of Athens' most fantastical elements have been condensed into seven unforgettable days. Impressive, don’t you think?

Lavish 3 to 4-star hotels will be your home-away-from-home for the length of the trip, carefully chosen for their modern style, comfort level, and, most importantly, past experience. All transportation will be provided by a fully air-conditioned coach, as well as a multilingual local guide to guarantee that you get the most out of every single location you visit. Wake up each morning in paradise where a delightful breakfast awaits you, ensuring you’re fueled for days of excitement and adventure. 

With all-inclusive sailing in the gleaming Aegean, your journey continues with an exhilarating 3-night cruise on the Celestyal Crystal in a large Inside Cabin (IA or IB). Relax aboard with unlimited beer, wine, and spirits, complimentary onboard meals and entertainment, and two complementary shore excursions. The floating resort will stop in exciting locations, including Mykonos, Kusadasi (Turkey), and the gorgeous Santorini, Greece's most famous island. Your tour concludes in Athens, with a fully included transfer to the city center or the Athens International Airport.

Greece and Turkey are overflowing with incredible sights and landmarks just waiting to be explored by you. It’s no surprise that planning a trip is no easy task (we hear you!), which is why we’ve hand tailored this trip to allow you to experience as much of these beautiful countries as possible over 10 incredible days. And, like with everything else, we want to go deep! We aim to provide that immersive experience so that when you return home, you won’t feel like a tourist but one of the locals. 

Your trip begins in the cosmopolitan capital of Greece, being met and welcomed by your tour director at Athens International Airport. You’ll stay in central Athens accommodation, no more than a 30 minute transfer away from the airport. One half day tour of the Acropolis and four full day tours await you, all hand selected by experts to ensure you leave Greece having seen all the best bits. The full day tours will take you from the Corinth Canal, to the Theatre of Epidaurus, the Tomb of Agamemnon, and even Olympia, cradle of the Olympic Games. After four days of adventure and discovery, it's time to stepon board the Celestyal Olympia, your floating hotel for the next 3 nights. This weekend long cruise takes you to some of the most beautiful and culturally enriched destinations in the Aegean, Kusadasi, Santorini and Mykonos. You’ll return after days at sea to Athens where, after a whirlwind of adventure, you will be taken back to Athens International Airport for your return flight home.
