Athens At sea - Greece
Morning optional excursions:
- Authentic: Athens and the Acropolis. Dominating the plain, the... see+ Acropolis, the “upper city”, occupies an exceptional site. Here, the first inhabitants built a fortress that became the most powerful city in ancient Greece: Athens. Although the Acropolis has been destroyed and plundered several times over the centuries, its ruins have been preserved and restored. With a healthy dose of imagination, you can step back in time to the splendor of ancient Greece as you stroll between the Parthenon, the Propylaea, the Erechteion and the Temple of Athena Nike.
- Experience: the Kessariani monastery. A few kilometers from Athens, at the foot of Mount Hymette, you'll fall under the spell of the Kessariani monastery. Nestled in a green setting in the heart of one of the most beautiful gardens in Attica, it's a haven of peace far from the hustle and bustle of the city. Founded in the 11th century, it is dedicated to the presentation of the Virgin and was built on the ruins of the temple of Aphrodite. Here you'll discover beautiful 16th-century frescoes, including the Christ Pantocrator in the dome. Continue through the garden to the Chapel of the Ascension. This grotto-like stone chapel is imbued with a genuine spirituality. Its walls are covered with icons from floor to ceiling.
On your return on board, the boat will cast off and begin its journey through the Cyclades archipelago. We invite you to join us on the sun deck for an aperitif. Conference in the lounge bar. Take advantage of this first afternoon of sailing to relax on the sun deck or take part in the entertainment on offer. Evening entertainment.

At sea - Greece Syros
In the morning, optional authentic excursion/experience: Syros, the middle-class island of the... see+ Cyclades. Here, contrasts intermingle, between typical alleyways and imposing neoclassical buildings. You'll reach the magnificent town of Ano Syros, where you'll explore a world of Cycladic architecture and Venetian charm, punctuated by magical views of the southern Aegean. Then, as you stroll through the marble-paved lanes of Ermoupoli, you'll be immersed in a retro atmosphere. In the central square, you'll admire the 19th-century Town Hall, the work of architect Ernst Ziller. Finally, enjoy some free time before returning to the ship.
Afternoon sailing on the Aegean Sea, rich in legends and myths. These legends reflect the beliefs and traditions of ancient Greece, and are still told today: from Ulysses' voyages to the mythical Atlantis. Lecture on board.

Syros Amorgos
In the morning, optional authentic excursion/experience: Amorgos, the island of the “Big Blue”.... see+ Visit the monastery of Panagia Hozoviotisa for a panoramic view of the Aegean Sea. Built in the 10th century to protect a 9th-century religious icon of the Virgin Mary, it can only be seen from the sea, like a luminous white spot clinging to the cliff 300 meters above sea level. After climbing the 269 steps leading up to the monastery, the monks will offer you some loukoums accompanied by a glass of raki or water. Then enjoy some free time in Chora, the island's capital, and explore this picturesque village.
Sailing to Rhodes, in the heart of the Dodecanese archipelago. The islands of this archipelago are a piece of eternal Greece, steeped in Byzantine and Ottoman civilizations, the passage of the knights in the Middle Ages and the Venetian occupation.

Amorgos Rhodes
In the morning, optional authentic excursion/experience: Rhodes, in the time of the Knights.... see+ World-famous for the Colossus, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, and for the presence of the Knights of St. John, Rhodes is a magnificent medieval city. Surrounded by a splendid wall pierced by seven majestic gates, it is home to the largest surviving medieval center in Europe. You won't want to miss the opportunity to lose yourself in its maze of irresistibly charming cobbled streets and admire its fascinating fortress-like buildings, bastions, walls, gates, minarets, old houses, fountains and tranquil squares. You'll visit the Palace of the Grand Masters, an imposing fortress decorated with frescoes and mosaics that plunges you into the medieval atmosphere, and walk down the famous Rue des Chevaliers, full of medieval inns that once housed the Knights of the Order.
In the afternoon, optional excursions:
- Authentic: Lindos. Drive through the island's countryside to the charming village of Lindos. On arrival, you'll be greeted by one of the island's most extraordinary sights, a Doric temple overlooking the sea. As you stroll through the narrow streets on your way up to the acropolis, you'll see the remains of the various civilizations that have occupied this area over the centuries. From the top of the acropolis cliffs, you'll have a superb view of the village below, with its whitewashed houses and pebbled courtyards.
- Experience: transfer to Faliraki beach, famous for its long sandy beach (deckchair and parasol rental included).

Rhodes Santorin
Morning sailing on the Aegean Sea to the heart of the Cyclades archipelago, whose islands combine... see+ the beauty of their rugged coastlines with the charm of their sparkling white hillside villages and infinitely blue beaches.
In the afternoon, optional authentic excursion/experience: Santorini, the jewel of the Aegean Sea (disembarkation/embarkation by rowboat). It was here that Captain Cousteau searched for the mythical lost city of Atlantis. The islands that make up Santorini came into being as a result of intense volcanic activity, with each eruption causing the central part of the volcano to collapse, creating the famous caldera. The volcano, however, has managed to recreate itself again and again. Still active, it is probably the only volcano in the world whose crater lies in the sea. A panoramic tour of the island will allow you to appreciate the diversity of its landscapes and to visit emblematic sites such as Profitis Ilias, the highest peak on this splendid island. Then enjoy a stroll along the winding cobbled streets of the village of Oia, with its sumptuous landscapes. The final stop is the enchanting village of Fira, with its blue domes blending into the sky. You'll watch the sun gradually descend over the sea and the light change to orange, pink or violet, an unforgettable moment.
Greek dinner on the boat's sun deck. Experience a unique moment as you watch the magical rays of the setting sun strike the island's rugged coastline.
Night sailing.
