Greece Cruise Holiday Highlights
No Greece cruise is complete without dipping into the ancient culture – whether wandering around the churches, monasteries and temples of Piraeus, marvelling at the Delphi ruins, or discovering the marble sculptures from the Aegean
Selection of Greece Ports
Katakolon, Greece
The small Greek port of Katakolon is the gateway to the birthplace of the Olympic Games, and fruit is still a major export – though now they prefer to turn it into wine.
Mykonos, Greece
One of the most visited Greek islands; Mykonos is a jewel in the Aegean Sea, famed as a vibrant and cosmopolitan destination.
Athens, Greece
The Acropolis - 'High City' - will always be the top attraction from Athens cruise port Piraeus. The Acropolis is unsurpassed in its beauty, architectural splendour and historic importance.
Rhodes, Greece
Rhodes is one of a kind: amazing beaches, medieval castles and archaeological sites. Its beauties are endless.
Zakynthos, Greece
This most southerly of the Ionian chain is still one of the most ruggedly beautiful of all the Greek islands.

Reasons to visit Greece on a cruise holiday
Spectacular Sites
There are some spectacular sites to see in Athens, including the Parthenon, Temple of Athena and the Odeon, as well as a maze of accessible streets lined with shops, restaurants, cafés and bars. Try to catch the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier too.
The birthplace of the Olympic Games
Katakolon has plenty of shops, cafés, boutiques and restaurants to keep you busy for the day, especially with the lovely little beach. It’s the gateway to Olympia – birthplace of the Olympic Games. Over three million people a year visit the historical site and its archaeological museum, with lovely lush valleys filled with fruit and vegetable fields en route.
Greek Food
Greek cuisine is among some of the very best in Europe and the Greeks are immensely proud of it. A cruise to Greece is a great opportunity to get acquainted with the local fare.
Collection of Greece Ports
Heraklion, Greece
The proud city of Heraklion is the modern capital of Crete. The town’s charm has been carefully preserved despite its growing popularity as an upmarket holiday resort.
Chania, Greece
West of Souda is the charming old Venetian town Chania. Cobbled streets lined with colourful Venetian townhouses zigzag downward toward the harbour, which has a touch of Florence or Venice about it.
Gythion, Greece
What could be more off the beaten track than a genuine ghost town? Gythion itself is a traditional Greek fishing port, packed with shops, tavernas and authentic old buildings.
Corfu, Greece
Thanks to the mix of hot, dry summers and winter rains, thousands of olive trees, lemon groves and cypress trees dominate the landscape of Corfu.
Nafplio, Greece
It’s baffling and thrilling in equal measure that Nafplio – one of the most beautiful towns in Greece – is something of an unknown gem.
