DAY 1 ARRIVE IN ATHENS, GREECE. (Wed.)<br />
Welcome to Athens! At 6 pm, meet your Globus Host and traveling<br />
companions for a welcome drink.<br />
DAY 2 ATHENS. (Thu.)<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. How about a Greek dinner tonight? Your local host knows where<br />
to find local fare and entertainment reminiscent of Zorba the Greek. (B)<br />
DAY 3 ATHENS–LAVRION/PIRAEUS (EMBARKATION)–MYKONOS. (Fri.)<br />
This morning, head for Lavrion/Piraeus, where you will sail into the<br />
deep-blue waters of the Aegean Sea. Later, dock at the mountainous<br />
island of Mykonos with its characteristic windmills and dazzling white<br />
houses. Time to wander at whim through narrow paved streets before<br />
returning on board. (B,L,D)<br />
DAY 4 CRUISING: KUSADASI, TURKEY–PATMOS, GREECE. (Sat.)<br />
Two ports of call today. First, Kusadasi on the Turkish coast. Visit the<br />
fascinating Greek, Roman, and Byzantine excavations of EPHESUS.<br />
Next, discover the tiny Greek island of Patmos, where St. John the Divine<br />
wrote the Revelation. Also see the Grotto of the Apocalypse. (B,L,D)<br />
DAY 5 CRUISING: HERAKLION, CRETE–SANTORINI, GREECE. (Sun.)<br />
First port of call today is Heraklion on Crete. A few miles away is<br />
KNOSSOS, the center of the 3000 BC Minoan civilization. Afternoon call<br />
(weather permitting) at Santorini, the “Black Pearl of the Aegean.” Join one<br />
of the optional shore excursions either to the volcano or up to the cliff-top<br />
village of Oia for one of the world’s most breathtaking panoramas. (B,L,D)<br />
DAY 6 LAVRION/PIRAEUS (DISEMBARKATION)–ATHENS. (Mon.)<br />
After breakfast on board, disembark at Lavrion/Piraeus and return to<br />
Athens. Tonight is your chance to enjoy an optional dinner at a local<br />
restaurant. (B)<br />
DAY 7 ATHENS. (Tue.)<br />
Your vacation ends with breakfast this morning. (B)<br />
