Where this voyage takes you
Day-by-day itinerary
- Day1
Piraeus
Depart 18:00
The ancient harbour of Athens and Greece's principal cruise port. Ferries fan out to the Aegean islands from its quays, while the Acropolis, the Plaka district and the National Archaeological Museum sit a short metro ride inland.

- Aegean ferries
- Day2
Katakolon
Arrive 09:00 · Depart 19:00
A small port on Greece's western Peloponnese coast, best known as the gateway to ancient Olympia. The sanctuary where the original Olympic Games were held lies a short drive inland, among ruined temples and the old stadium.

- Day3
Argostoli
Arrive 09:00 · Depart 19:00
The capital of Kefalonia, the largest of Greece's Ionian Islands. Rebuilt after a 1953 earthquake, the waterfront town curves around a sheltered lagoon and serves as a base for the island's pale-pebble beaches, caves and the white sand of Myrtos.

- Koutavos lagoon
- Day4
Corfu
Arrive 08:00 · Depart 19:00
An Ionian island off Greece's northwest coast, greener and more Venetian-feeling than the Aegean isles. Ships call at its old town, a UNESCO-listed warren of Italianate streets between two hilltop fortresses, with pebbly coves around the shore.

- Liston arcade
- Ionian coves
- Day5
Bari
Arrive 07:00 · Depart 19:00
A port city on Italy's Adriatic coast, the regional capital of Puglia at the country's southeastern heel. Its old quarter winds around the basilica of San Nicola, and home cooks hand-roll orecchiette pasta in the narrow lanes.

- Bari Vecchia
- Orecchiette
- Day6At sea
- Day7
Santorini
Arrive 08:00 · Depart 18:00
The crescent rim of a flooded volcanic caldera in the Greek Cyclades, its whitewashed villages strung along cliffs high above the sea. Fira and Oia draw crowds for sunset views, while the caldera's dark beaches and the ancient site of Akrotiri lie below.
