Greek Odyssey - Discovering ancient empires as we explore the Aegean Sea on our voyage to important sites of antiquity.

Day One – Athens, the birthplace of democracy.

The legacy of ancient Greece looms large atop the hill of Acropolis.  As you pass through the Propylaeum, the grand entrance delivers you to the plateau of the rock.  Here, the Parthenon reigns over the Nike and Erechtheum temples.

The Acropolis Museum

The Acropolis Museum is a thematic museum, the collections of which include the findings of only one archaeological site, 

the Athenian Acropolis.

Day Two - Volos

The gateway to Meteora and its spectacular monasteries perched upon rocky pillars. 

In the 14th century, Greek Orthodox monks came to believe that the tops of these rock formations rising 

precipitously from the surrounding plains would be the perfect location in which to attain a sense of peaceful isolation, and to reconnect with the divine.

Over time, 24 monasteries were built on the hilltops, producing a surreal sight that combines a spectacular, natural landscape with human ingenuity.
