6nts Crete, 1nt Athens & 7nts Mediterranean Cruise with Virgin Voyages
Crete, Greece
Crete is a wonderful place, dipped in ancient stories, the birthplace of Zeus and Apollo. It has it all, natural beauty, ancient history, architecture, picturesque old towns and villages, sandy beaches, whole year-round good weather, delicious food, and wine. It can be as active and entertaining as you want it to be, water sports? Hiking? Or maybe just a romantic stroll on the beach and leisure time soaking up the sun? Get lost in the oldest parts of Hania, exploring the lanes and streets, soak up the culture, myths and legends, try delicious dakos, mizithra and Chochlioi boubouristi, explore the Cretan gorges, visit Palace of Knossos. One holiday is surely not enough but we know you will come back again!
6 nights
Crete
Athens, Greece
The capital of Greece is dominated by the pillars of the past in the shape of the Acropolis and Parthenon. While unmovable reminders of ancient history capture the imagination of tourists every year, there’s a modern Athens too with a nightlife that never wants to stop, fashion boutiques and so many delicious dishes you’ve probably never tried before.
If you want to climb a little to escape the heat on a warm day, a cable car ride up Mount Lycabettus fits the bill perfectly and will reward you with sensational views from the top, over 300 metres above sea level.
