Departure is at approximately 08.00 a.m. heading to the three beautiful islands of the Saronic Gulf. After departure, our guide and the hostesses will ask you to assemble in one of the main lounges of the ship to get acquainted and give you all the information concerning the ship, the program of the cruise and the islands. The order of the island visits may be changed with no prior notice.

• Hydra (apprx. 2 hours)
  The favorite island of the jet set, whose old traditional stone houses and mansions have over the years housed the enfant gâté of the art world. The narrow stone-paved streets await for you to explore them on foot or by saddled donkey, as the island belongs to a niche group of places that do not allow motorized vehicles. Captivating walks along the old seaside promenade crystal clear waters and radiant fine craft shops create an incredible amalgamation of two different worlds!
• Poros (apprx. 1 hour)
  Although it is the smallest of the three islands we will visit, its narrow strait offering a most enchanting view of the town of Poros, is a site to behold. The island is extremely close to Peloponnese, with a 200m (650ft) strip of water separating it from the mainland. That gives Poros a unique coastline, as a big part of it is almost lagoon-like.
• Aegina (apprx. 2 hours)
  During ancient times it was a rival of Athens, the great sea power of the era. As such, the island is, to this day, full of archaeological sites and historical points of interest. Apart from its harbor, there are optional organized tours by air conditioned busses visiting the Temple of Aphaia (archeological site) or the Church of Saint Nektarios, whose relics are on display. These tours are optional and are sold on board the ship. On our way back to Marina Flisvos, a traditional Greek folk show with singers and dancers will entertain you up to the final moment as the ship arrives at Marina Flisvos.

Optional excursions (can be booked on board):

• Classical tour (Aegina) :
  Start your classical tour with a Guided Bus Tour of the island, starting with a visit to the Temple of Aphaia which is the best preserved temple in Greece and one of the 3 temples forming the famous “Sacred Triangle” of Greek antiquity. Built on top of a pine tree covered hill, it offers the most magnificent view over the island, the Saronic Gulf, Piraeus and Salamina Island. Our guide will tell you the fascinating story of the intriguing history of this beautiful temple and then from there we make a small stop for photographs to the Church of Saint Nektarios, where you can admire its beautiful Byzantine architecture. On our way back to Aegina Port you will have the time to relax and appreciate the exquisite peaceful nature of the island.

• Panoramic tour (Aegina): Drive across the entire island (without visiting the archaeological site) admiring the beauty of its nature, the famous Aegina pistachio groves, the island’s medieval capital of Paleohora and the Saint Nektarios Monastery. Final stop is at a local taverna at the port to enjoy some meze and tsipouro.
  
  
• Swimming excursion (Aegina): Enjoy a soft drink while we transfer you by our company’s speedboat to the coast of Moni, 7 minutes away from the port, to a private organized beach with umbrellas which is ideal not only for swimming but also for enjoying the natural beauty and landscape filled with pine trees. You can swim in the crystal clear blue waters and enjoy the sandy beach next to peacocks and if you are lucky you can see the deer enjoying the landscape as well.

Even though the idea of its construction has been in existence since the days of Ancient Greece, it was only created during the late 19^th century. We will take a short stop for pictures before proceeding to the site of Ancient Corinth, where the remains of the Temple of Apollo, the Agora and the Ancient Theater are just some of the sites worth visiting.

Afterwards, our tour will take us to one of the smaller, more traditional villages of the island. Some of the more popular choices include Pyrgos and Megalochori, two quintessentially Santorinian villages, where time seems to stand still. Get a taste of what its like to be a local by walking through whitewashed houses, taverns and shops, always gazing down at the blue sea.

Due to the island's proximity to the caldera, Santorini features unique beaches, the most prominent of which are the Black beach and the Red Beach. Made out of two successive beaches, the Black beach lies on the southeast coast of the island and is laid with black volcanic sand. It's red counterpart, is located near the village of Akrotiri, on the southernmost part of the island, at the end of a steep downhill path. Enclosed by huge red rocks and laid with volcanic pebbles, it is perhaps the most popular sight on the island.

Take a day to explore the ancient oracle of Delphi, a sacred place for all of ancient Greece, and one dubbed 'the navel of the world'. Starting from Athens, we will take the scenic route through the plains of Beotia before arriving near the charming town of Delphi, where the ruins of the Oracle still stand to this day. Although the main site the Temple of Apollo, the famous sanctuary that housed the oracle which was consulted before every major war campaign, there are other points of interest scattered through the complex. Various treasuries, such as the ones built by the Athenians and the Sifnians exist in the site and were erected to host the offering of city-states around Greece. The Altar of the Chians, Stoa of the Athenians and Roman Agora are worth your attention, as is of course the Stadium which housed the Pythian Games. Finally, you can't help but admire in awe the Ancient Theater which offers a spectacular view of the valley below the site. 

After we leave the archaeological site, we will proceed to visit the Delphi Archaeological Museum, which is situated close by and is home to a cornucopia of exhibits discovered in the area. Important exhibits include the Cylix of Apollo, the Kouroi of Delphi and the Daedalic Figurine. However, undoubtedly the most famous one of all is the Charioteer, a bronze statue set up to commemorate the victories of Polyzalus of Gela. After we tour the museum we will have lunch in the town of Delphi and start our return to Athens. A quick stop to the picturesque village of Arachova will give you a chance to snap some beautiful pictures and even pick up some souvenirs for your friend back home.
