Day 1: Athens, Greece

Arrive a few days early to explore this fascinating city full of culture and history. Board your luxurious small ship, Le Levant this afternoon for your cruise of the Mediterranean.

Day 2: Milos, Greece

Le Levant offers you unusual ports of call in the Greek Cyclades Islands, first port of call being the picture postcard scenery of Milos and Mykonos with their signature windmills and tangle of whitewashed streets.

Day 3: Santorini, Greece

Further south the sombre shape of Santorini stands out against the azure blue sky, a natural port dominated by impressive cliffs.

Day 4: Agios Nikolaos, Greece

Capital of Lassithi, Agios Nikolaos is one of the most beautiful bays of the island.

Day 5: Amorgos / Mykonos, Greece

“Queen of the Cyclades” with its white mills, labyrinth of whitewashed alleyways and quaint little port where boats bob lazily at the foot of the terraces, Mykonos (Greece) never fails to inspire.One of the most romantic spots is the colourful “Little Venice” district where the houses are built right on the sea giving it a special ambiance.

Day 6: Tinos / Siros, Greece

Your cruise then continues to the tiny island of Tinos where picturesque villages perch high on mountains covered by luscious vegetation. Indeed, the houses here have preserved all the charm and authenticity of a traditional architecture.

Day 7: Dikili, Turkey

Leave the turquoise colors of Greece for Turkish shores to discover the superb Pergamum site which was once a serious rival to Alexandria and Rome.

Day 8: Istanbul, Turkey

Disembark this morning for your continued journey home.

Our guide and driver were very good with their knowledge and were very helpful with our questions. It was a very pleasant visit that would have been impossible to do on our own. Hotels and restaurants were fantastic. The special places we got to go to, like the kitchens, were great. Enjoyed the entire trip!
