EXCITING DESTINATIONS AND SPECTACULAR SHORE EXCURSIONS

When it comes to shore excursions, passengers sailing with Celebrity Cruises have a variety of choices available to them from port to port. There is a little bit for everyone, ranging from half-day excursions to full-day experiences, tours conducted in Spanish to skill-building activities that involve hands-on practise.

This voyage around the Mediterranean Sea departs and returns to the port of Piraeus in Athens, Greece. Athens is home to a plethora of archaeological monuments that are open to the public, including the Parthenon on the Acropolis and the Temple of Hephaestus, which is perched on a hill overlooking the Agora. After a day spent learning about the city’s past, tourists might find it relaxing to take a stroll through the city’s contemporary neighbourhoods in search of genuine Mediterranean cuisine.

Excursions that are highlights include guided tours to the famous Acropolis followed by an authentic Greek lunch, a picturesque drive and a funicular trip to the summit of Mount Lycabettus for spectacular views of the city, and so on.

The ship sets sail from Athens in the direction of Thessaloniki, which is Greece’s second-largest city. The White Tower is one of the places that visitors just cannot miss while they are in this area. Climbing to the top affords visitors breathtaking vistas of the surrounding area, including the harbour and the city below. Visitors interested in history will enjoy the city’s many museums and ancient ruins. Participate in a specially crafted walking tour led by one of Celebrity Cruises’ captains or pay a visit to Mount Olympus and Dion.

During the third day of the summer cruise, the ship will make a stop at Mykonos, Greece. Once there, passengers will have the opportunity to disembark and explore the island’s charming, whitewashed buildings, unwind on one of the island’s sandy beaches, and experience the island’s lively nightlife.

The excursions may include a cheese-making or cooking session so that guests can have a taste of the regional cuisine. A full-day trip of Mykonos and Delos, both of which are listed on the UNESCO World Heritage list, is another possibility. Alternatively, you might cruise around Mykonos and its famous beaches, with time built in for swimming and basking in the sun.

Ephesus, formerly known as Kusadasi, is a coastal town in Turkey that is famous for being one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Visitors who are interested in history will not be let down by a visit to this town.

A guided tour of ancient landmarks such as the House of Virgin Mary, the Grand Theater, the Celsus Library, and St. John’s Basilica is something that guests may desire to experience while they are in town. Other options include visiting one of Turkey’s national parks or participating in a programme that teaches the art of carpet weaving.

Guests can join a tour to visit the Acropolis of Lindos in Rhodes, Greece, and then go on to a guided walking tour of the city’s mediaeval centre after their visit there. A day spent lazing on the sand at Faliraki Beach, a jaunt along the coast to Kalithea Thermal Springs, or a vacation to Lindos are three further alternatives.

The picturesque village of Santorini, located on the Greek island of Santorini, is known for its bright blue rooftops and whitewashed walls. Canava Lygnos is a living museum that travellers can visit while they are staying here, in addition to seeing the neighbouring villages of Fira and Oia and indulging in wine tastings and traditional Greek mezes. A trip to one of Santorini’s famous black sand beaches, Perivolos Beach, is another option that may be taken during a half-day excursion.

The last stop before heading back to Athens is the Greek island of Hydra, which is intended exclusively for pedestrians and features cobblestone streets. Visitors have the opportunity to take a leisurely stroll along the waterfront, do some shopping at one of the area’s quaint boutiques, or sit at an outdoor café and watch the passing crowd.
