Cruise Itinerary: Hermes

Boarding begins at about 08:30 a.m. and the ship is scheduled to leave the port at 11:00 a.m. Sailing the Aegean in the morning is the ideal time of the day to observe its deep blue color, enjoy the sun on deck or entertain yourself by joining in one of the many activities and services offered by the cruise company. Onboard, Greca Travel includes full board meal plan and a package of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages during the meals, so that our only concern is to have a good time.
Your first destination will be the glamorous island of Mykonos, where the cruise ship will dock from 16:00 hrs until 23:00 hrs, before continuing your tour around the wonderful Greek islands. Mykonos is the meeting point of the international "jet set" and famous for its wonderful beaches, dazzling shops, and vibrant nightlife. Only a short distance away from Mykonos there is also the historic island of Delos, the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis according to Greek mythology. This small island, inhabited since 3000 a.C., was one of the most significant cultural centers of Antiquity.
Finally, you will have the opportunity to pre-book other excursions organized by the cruise company to yet more fascinating places in your itinerary.
Greca Tip: Have a drink at one of the bars in Little Venice, wander around the quaint streets of Chora and watch the sunset from the picturesque windmills.

At 07:00 hrs, after a peaceful and comfortable night's cruising, you will awaken on the Turkish coast and at the port of Kusadasi. The first stop of your shore excursion will be the ancient city of Ephesus once visited by Saint Paul, Mark Antony, and Cleopatra, among others. Ephesus was one of the twelve Ionian cities and flourished as an important cultural, religious and commercial center.
At noon, the cruise will leave port and sail, this time towards the island of Patmos, where Saint John wrote the Apocalypse and where Jesus Christ appeared to him in the Grotto of the Apocalypse or Book of Revelation.
From 16:00 hrs to 21:00 hrs, you will have free time at your disposal to visit the Holy Cave of the Apocalypse, the Monastery of Saint John the Theologian, or stroll in the port of this small but so important island.
Tip Greca: You can buy a souvenir from the quaint little shops at the port of Skala and Xerotigana, a deep-fried kind of pastry with abundant use of honey and cinnamon.

After a peaceful night's sailing, you will arrive on the famous island of Rhodes, which was once home to one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, "the Colossus of Rhodes", a statue of Helios.
From your arrival, at about 07:00 am until your departure at 18:00 hrs. you will have free time if you wish to explore the renowned medieval town of Rhodes, recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, the Acropolis of Lindos or simply lay back and enjoy the natural beauty of the largest island in the Dodecanese island complex.
Lindos is located 55 km (40 miles) from the city of Rhodes and “bears” above it the Acropolis of Lindos, with the ancient Temple of Athena, built in 300 B.C. In the old city of Rhodes, you will walk the Street of the Knights, and find their residences.
Greca Tip: Walk through the Palace of the Grand Master and this imposing 14th-century structure with ancient art, exquisite marble and mosaics will give you a tiny glimpse of what life was like way back then.

In the early morning, after a gentle night of sailing, you will arrive at the picturesque island of Santorini. The approach to the island is fascinating and it is the ideal time to photograph the city of Fira, with its white houses hanging on the slope that faces the volcano. The name of the island is the deformation of the name given to it in the Middle Age by the Venetian merchants who called it Saint Irene, as this is the patron saint of the island. In 1576, Santorini became part of the Duchy of Naxos, until the Turkish conquest of Piyale Pasha.
From 07:00 am to 20:00 pm hs Santorini will be at our complete disposal so that we discover its unique and legendary beauty.
Greca Tip: Do not miss the opportunity to enjoy one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world from one of the many coffee stores that are located on the cliffs.

You will arrive at the port of Lavrion early in the morning, at around 06:00 hrs. You will enjoy a generous breakfast on board your cruise ship and then you will disembark. At this point your cruise to the Greek islands and our services will come to an end.
Undoubtedly, after spending a few fantastic days with Greca, we hope to see you again soon to create new and extraordinary moments that will be etched in your memory forever.
Have a nice trip!, or as Greek people say, Kalo taksidi!
