OVERVIEW: You will be able to sit back, relax and enjoy the views, fresh air
and Greek dancing and music on board as your transfers, transport, and
buffet lunch are all organized for you. This Athens Day Cruise to 3 Greek Islands includes a day cruise from Athens to the beautiful and
historic islands of Poros, Hydra and Aegina; where you will experience
for yourself some of the top scenic and cultural highlights of the
country.
INCLUDED: Guide, Mediterranean lunch, entertainment and games on the boat
NOT INCLUDED: optional tour on last island, Aegina, and tips (appreciated when deserved)
HIGHLIGHTS:
Hydra, 1st island on our
itinerary even though it is the furthest from Athens. You will have about 1:45 minutes to
enjoy the shopping opportunities and unique charms and you'll perhaps
understand why it has been so popular for so long. There are no cars
allowed so be prepared for lots of donkeys.
Poros,
The day continues when the ship sails on to the island of Poros. It's
truly beautiful with pine
forests growing all the way down to the sea. There are excellent
restaurants and shops to enjoy during your free time. It is here we will
be treated to a complimentary banquet of Mediterranean cuisine..
Aegina, is the last island visited. Here, one can either join an excursion to the Temple of Aphaia (cost not included- tickets announced and sold on board) or take a walk around the main town. Aegina is one
of the Saronic Gulf islands, is situated only thirty one miles (fifty
kilometers) from Athens, was the capital of Greece at one point
and today is a popular getaway for Athenians during the summer months.
FYI: Price: 109 Euros per person. On Hydra, the donkeys and people seem good natured about posing for photos.
After sailing back to the Piraeus port, you'll be driven to your
origination point in Athens.
