Cruising
As this is the designated arrival day, you have time to explore the Greek Capital before we set sail. Athens is one of the World’s oldest Cities, where you can explore over 3,400 years of history. Buy yourself the multi site combo tickets for EUR 30.00 (not included), which grants you entry for five days to all the Classical Sites including the Acropolis Hilltop and the famed Parthenon structure as well as six other Archaeological sites including the Temple of Zeus, Ancient Agora, Hadrian’s Library, Roman Agora, Kerameikos Cemetery and Lyceum of Aristotle. The modern Acropolis Museum is well worth a visit if you want to learn more and view hundreds of artefacts. If you want to see and learn a lot on short time, consider one of the many Athens walking tours on offer, from general City navigation and history, philosophy, architecture and, of course, food Walking Tours. Alternatively, you can stroll the old neighbourhoods from Plaka to Psyri, try Souvlaki or sip on a Frappé and hang out with the locals in one of the City’s many cafés. In the afternoon, please make your way to the Salamina Marina, where you will meet your fellow sailors and mingle. Relax onboard, sip a drink from your private deck and dance till dawn! Optional Excursion: • Toga Party
