Athens
Athens is the historical capital of Europe, with a long history, dating from the first settlement in the Neolithic age. In 1834, it became the capital of the modern Greek state, and in two centuries since it has become an attractive modern metropolis with unrivalled charm. Athens dominates the Attica region and is one of the world’s oldest cities, with its recorded history spanning. A large part of the town’s historic center has been converted into a 3-kilometer pedestrian zone. The historic center is an open-air museum, yet the city’s cultural and social life takes place amid these ancient landmarks, merging past and present. The magnificent Acropolis rises above the sprawling metropolis and has stood witness to the city’s many transformations.
The Plaka is the oldest section of Athens. Most of the streets have been closed to automobile traffic, though you should still keep a watchful eye for a speeding motorcycle or delivery truck. At one time it was the nightclub district, but most of these closed down when the government outlawed amplified music in the neighborhood in the seventies in an effort to get rid of undesirables. The strategy was very successful and it is now an area of restaurants, Jewelry stores tourist shops, and cafes. Though it is quite commercialized it is still a neighborhood and arguably the nicest neighborhood in central Athens
One Day Cruise
Sailing from the port of Piraeus, our first stop is the Island of Hydra, one of the favorite resort islands of the international “Jet-Set”. This unique picturesque island, famous for the architecture of its houses and the narrow pedestrian streets full of designer boutiques will astonish you. In Hydra, you have time at leisure for strolling, shopping, or swimming. In the early afternoon sail for the Island of Aegina, passing through the narrow strait separating the Peloponnesian coast from the island of Poros. Aegina is famous all over the world for the excellent quality of its pistachio nut production.
Upon arrival at the island of Aegina, we suggest you visit the Temple of Afaia, built on the top of the hill during the 5th century B.C. with a magnificent view. This is available as an optional excursion, or you are free to walk around the main town. Don’t forget to bring with you your hat, suntan lotion and of course your bathing suit, because if you don’t want to visit the temple, you can swim in the crystal waters of this island. As we set sail from Aegina, lunch is served on board.
Arriving at the magnificent Island of Poros it is suggested that you enjoy a cool drink at one of the traditional Cafés alongside the little harbour and fishing boats, followed by a stroll along the quayside and perhaps a little shopping. After your visit at Poros, it will be time to board your cruise boat for the return to Piraeus early in the evening and overnight in Athens.
