DAY 15 ATHENS. (Fri.)<br />
Sightseeing with a Local Guide features a visit to the world-famous<br />
ACROPOLIS, perched high on a rocky outcrop overlooking the city. Here,<br />
see the Parthenon, the Erechtheum with its Porch of Maidens, the Temple<br />
of Athena Nike, and enjoy a panoramic view that includes glimpses of<br />
the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Theater of Dionysus, and the beautifully<br />
preserved Theseum, where Socrates taught. Later, a city orientation tour<br />
features the Old Parliament House and a picture stop at the Panathenaic<br />
Stadium. Built in the 2nd century AD, it is the only stadium in the<br />
world built entirely of marble, and was host to the opening and closing<br />
ceremonies of the first modern Olympics in 1896. The rest of the day is at<br />
leisure. Tonight, a farewell dinner awaits you at a local restaurant. (B,D)<br />

herbs, and handicrafts. Later visit RETHYMNON. (B,L,D)<br />

houses, trendy boutiques, and shaded tavernas. (B,L,D)<br />
Day 19 CRUISING: SANTORINI. (Tue.)<br />

sun-drenched public beaches and the colorful shopping district are an easy<br />
walk from the port. (B,L,D)<br />
