Your 2014 Mediterranean Cruise would not be complete without a visit to the picturesque islands of Greece. Famous for its volcanic landscape, your port in Santorini offers captivating beauty and intriguing history, with views and sights that will take your breath away. Fira is the lively center of activity on Santorini, full of inviting shops that line the narrow, cobblestone streets. Explore the delightful village of Oia, set against the steep slope of the caldera, for the quintessential image of Greece. Delve into ancient mysteries at the archaeological site of Akrotiri, which was buried in volcanic ash thousands of years ago. There are numerous sights to choose from that will keep you in awe during your visit.

Santorini also offers exciting activities to appeal to your sense of pleasure and adventure. Glide smoothly from town to the Old Port on the modern cable car ride, or choose to hire a donkey for a more traditional mode of transportation. For an active outing, you may select an excursion to hike across the caldera to Nea Kameni’s crater. You may also enjoy a tour that includes a trip to Profitis Ilias for panoramic overviews, or a trip to a local tavern to learn how to prepare classic Greek dishes. Black sand beaches and the sulfur-rich water of the caldera also await you if you fancy a swim and some relaxation in the sun.

Whatever you choose to see or do, you’ll enjoy and cherish iconic images of Greek beauty. Set your sights on the 2014 Team Elite Mediterranean Cruise and you’ll embark on a journey to the fascinating archipelago of Santorini.
