Thanks to the hotel’s close proximity to all major Athenian sites and attractions, we have the opportunity to walk to the world-renowned landmarks of the city, such as the Acropolis Hill and the modern Acropolis Museum. The historic center offers a plethora of sites worth discovering, including Kallimarmaron and Ancient Agora, the Archaeological Museum and the National Library, Lycabettus and the emblematic Syntagma Square, the Greek Parliament and the Temple of Olympian Zeus.
This tour gives you the opportunity to observe the striking contrasts that make Athens such a fascinating city. Our expert guide will take you to see the Panathenaic Stadium where the first Olympic Games of modern times were held in 1896.
Continue and pass by the Prime Minister’s residence (ex Royal Palace) guarded by the Euzones in their colorful uniform, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, the Hadrian’s Arch, the Parliament and the memorial to the Unknown Soldier, the Academy, the University, the National Library, the Constitution Square (Syntagma).
On the Acropolis visit the Architectural Masterpieces of the Golden Age of Athens: The Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheion and finally “the harmony between material and spirit”, the monument that “puts order in the mind”, the Parthenon.

Centered around a rugged volcanic crater, the small island of Nea Kameni offers a dramatic landscape, with dark cliffs sculpted from lava rock and orange-tinged natural thermal waters. The island’s striking landscape and natural hot springs make it a great destination for us on this cruises from Santorini.
Next destination will be Thirassia which is a typical cycladic village with a way of life as it used to be. Tiny houses of various colors give a special character to these small settlements. Is an ideal place to taste some of the traditional plates of Santorini, or to explore and discover the simple village of Manolios by donkey, the choice is yours.
We end our day visiting the iconic town of Oia. The beauty of Oia is unsurpassed. In fact, it is almost impossible to describe in words. Small white houses tier the hillside, interspersed by splashes of rich okra, deep fuchsia, cobalt blue, oyster pink and earthy red. Oia is one of the most photographed places in Greece. It has inspired artists, poets and every visitor who visits Santorini. Oia is best known for breathtaking sunsets; if truth be told, sunrise in Oia is also magical.

We will enjoy a lovely barbecue lunch onboard, then sail past Aspronisi, Ancient Lighthouse, Akrotiri and Indian Rock. We continue on and find out way to the Hot Springs for relaxing and soaking in the healing waters. Before we head back with the sun setting over the beautiful waters of Santorini.
