Overview
After journeying from temple to fascinating temple on our Classical Greece...read more tour, you’ll sail from port to breath-taking port to take in the mesmerising sights of Ephesus, coastal Turkey, and the Greek Isles. The island cruising begins on the cultural coast of Rhodes and continues to the glittering isles of Crete, Santorini (weather permitting), Milos, and Mykonos, all while the sirtaki - the lively dance made popular in the classic movie Zorba the Greek - is a joyous constant throughout this big fat Greek holiday.
