Off The Beaten Path Greek Islands

Jul 6, 2027 — Jul 13, 2027

Set a course for hidden harbors and the delights of off the beaten path Greece during a seven-day cruise to Hellenistic islands and a moonlight dinner concert in the Turkish ruins of Ephesus. Explore the colorful interior of the Cathedral of St. George atop Syros, a stately hillside landmark founded in the 1200s and continually restored after devastating battles. Listen as a moonlight concert reverberates across the ancient Celsus Library walls during your candlelight dinner in Ephesus.
Drink the decadent sweetness of local Muscat wines pressed at Samos and learn about their most famous and calculating resident-the mathematician Pythagora. Wander the weathered Doric decor of the temple of Demeter prior to sampling the culinary perfection of pan-seared calamari in Naxos. Relax on the sunny and sandy expanses of the most scenic beaches in the Cyclades. Browse handmade clothing in unspoiled Folegandros and Milos-tiny island refuges yet to be found by tourists.
