Greek Isles, Albania & The Adriatic

Pricing is based on departure date: 17 October 2027

Start your journey in Athens and spend a day of bliss on-board before arriving at the cobblestone streets and former fortresses of Dubrovnik. From there you’ll head to the pebbled beaches, breezy promenade and crystalline turquoise waters of Albania’s riviera, Sarandë. From there spend a carefree day in Corfu followed by a day sailing to the magic of Mykonos before finally returning to Athens.

ITINERARY HIGHLIGHTS

Athens (Port of Piraeus)
Greece's capital and its largest city was born atop the Acropolis, where ancient warrior-kings once dwelled. These ruins are a testament to the golden age of Greece, and the Parthenon is considered the most architecturally sophisticated temples of its time. Ancient Agora, a sprawling array of stones, slabs and foundations, was once the focal point of ancient Greek life.

Dubrovnik, Croatia
Whether in search of a Balkan adventure, a romance on the dance floor of an ex-barracks-turned-night-club, a historical hangout worthy of a John Williams musical score, or some of the most succulent seafood in Europe, Dubrovnik refuses to disappoint. Surrounded by sparkling emerald waters, dramatic cliffs, and the illustrious Elaphiti archipelago, this extraordinary city’s beaches rank as some of the world’s finest, providing the perfect backdrop for its copious thrilling outdoor endeavors which can be found from the glistening coast all the way into the hinterland.

Sarande, Albania
Sarandë brings the Mediterranean heat without the Mediterranean crowds. Think crystal-clear waters, sun-drenched promenades, and a laid-back Riviera vibe that feels more insider secret than tourist hotspot. Spend the day beach-hopping along the Albanian coast, sipping cocktails by impossibly blue water, or wandering waterfront cafés where long lunches are practically mandatory. For a dose of history, step back in time at the ancient ruins of Butrint, then return to town just in time for golden-hour views over the Ionian Sea. It's effortlessly cool, unexpectedly beautiful.

Corfu, Greece
Corfu is simply dripping in history. Wander through the narrow cobblestone alleys and discover a world of adventure worthy of a fantasy film. Stumble upon historical landmines — like The Old Town’s stunning municipal building, which served as its first (and former) grand theater and opera house built during the Venetian empire. Admire The Palace of St. Michael & St. George, which provides a home to the Museum of Asian Art that displays Chinese, Japanese, and Greco-Buddhist masterpieces. Take in The Saint Spyridon Church’s bell tower – whose patron saint was said to have expelled the plague from the island. All the while appreciating the wafting aromas of local flora and fauna that are so expertly used for numerous liqueur and culinary infusions. It’s not that Corfu is pretentious, it’s just the classic Hollywood starlet of Greek Islands — emitting that aura of worldly sophistication that naturally makes you want more.   

Mykonos, Greece
Nestled in the heart of Greece's Cyclades archipelago, Mykonos pulses with irrepressible energy. With its powder white houses, sparkling blue waters, and red-hot nightlife, The Island of the Winds is as colorful as the people who call the island home.
