Flying into the Italian City of Bridges – Venice where we will start our Mediterranean cruise, we shake off our jet lag by relaxing and absorbing the sights on a gondola ride through narrow Venetian canals. We will then explore Venice on foot, along quaint cobblestone streets and endless bridges before stopping at the Rialto Bridge to shop for unique Venetian glass souvenirs.

We proceed for our cruise to the oldest city in the world – Athens. No visit to Athens would be complete without a visit to the Acropolis where we will see the Parthenon, one of the world’s most awe-inspiring sights. Walk around the ruins of the Acropolis to soak in the rich history of the region which had seen legendary battles such as Trojan War and Persian war which inspired the ‘300’ movie. After this we will go souvenir-hunting for traditional handicraft in old Athens neighbourhoods.

Next shore destination – the Greek island of Mykonos. Greek mythology had it that Hercules slew the Giants here; the large rocks that are scattered about the island are said to be their petrified corpses. Together with the ancient ruins in nearby Delos island, it is a dream for historical buffs like me, to visit these places. We will then spend the rest of the afternoon exploring white-washed shops and homes of these beautiful islands before indulging in local Grecian cuisine with its rich mix of honey, olive oil.

While cruising, an array of activities awaits us ranging from a leisurely game at the miniature golf course to strenuous rock-climbing at one of its challenging rock walls on board. We can also enjoy the sunny Mediterranean summer by chilling out at one of the ship’s outdoor pool in a Solarium with a sliding roof. Now that’s what I call a holiday – no need to worry about hotel bookings and luggage transfers!
