Sept. 9 Depart SLC for Athens,
Greece
Sept 10 ARRIVE IN ATHENS, GREECE
Welcome to Athens! At 6 pm, meet
your Globus Host and traveling
companions for a welcome drink.
Sept 11 ATHENS
Sightseeing with a Local Guide
features a visit to the world-famous
ACROPOLIS, perched high on a
rocky outcrop overlooking the city.
Here, see the Parthenon, the
Erechtheum with its Porch of
Maidens, the Temple of Athena Nike,
and enjoy a panoramic view that includes glimpses of the Temple of
Olympian Zeus, Theater of Dionysus, and the
beautifully preserved Theseum, where Socrates
taught. Later, a city orientation tour features
the Parliament House and a picture stop at the
Panathenaic Stadium. Built in the 2nd century
AD, it is the only stadium in the world built
entirely of marble, and was host to the opening
and closing ceremonies of the first modern
Olympics in 1896. The rest of the day is at
leisure. Tonight, why not try out local fare and
entertainment reminiscent of Zorba the Greek?
Breakfast included.
Sept 12 ATHENS–
PIRAEUS/RAFINA
(EMBARKATION)–MYKONOS
Meet your Tour Director
and head for the port of
Piraeus or Rafina this
morning. Around 7:30 am,
sail into the deep-blue
waters of the Aegean Sea.
Later, dock at the
mountainous island of
Mykonos, where
mythology’s Heracles defeated and killed the giants. Here, characteristic
windmills, swaying palm and eucalyptus trees, and dazzling white
Cycladic architecture greet you. At a local restaurant this evening,
sample local specialties, like louza loukaniko (sausage) and kopanisti
(peppery goat cheese), then mingle with the locals at a quaint taverna or
take a bus to the main square of Mando Mavrogenous. Breakfast and
Dinner included.
Sept 13 MYKONOS
The granite island of Mykonos is one of the most characteristic of the
Cyclades and has retained its timeless beauty. Walk through the network
of narrow streets and visit the CHURCH OF AGIA KIRIAKI, renowned for its
beautiful icons, and also taste a traditional Mykonian dessert,
Amygdalota. Stroll around the town’s waterfront in search of Petros the
Pelican, the island’s celebrated mascot. Afternoon at leisure to relax or for
individual activities. Breakfast included.
Sept 14 AT LEISURE ON MYKONOS
A whole day to do just as you
please. Relax in the sun on one of
the beautiful golden sandy beaches
or take a short boat ride to see the
archaeological ruins on the nearby
island of Delos, a UNESCO World
Heritage Site. Inhabited since the 3rd
millennium BC, Delos was known in
ancient times as a sacred sanctuary
and, later, as the birthplace of the
twin gods, Apollo and Artemis.
Breakfast included.
