A unique Christmas Cruise, offering a perfect combination of mountain and sea
21 - 28 December 2008
ship: easyCruise Life
This year, live the festive atmosphere of Christmas on board, on a cruise ideally combining sea, mountains and a journey into history. Our ship, easyCruise Life, will be adorned for the festive season to welcome you for an unforgettable week.
We sail off from Piraeus and head to the lovely Nafplio, the first capital of Greece, where we shall stay from early morning until the first morning hours on the following day. Explore its picturesque lanes, visit Palamidi and the famous Bourtji, built on the small island of Aghioi Theodoroi or take our very interesting excursion to Epidavros & Mycenae. We then head towards Corinth, where you can visit the Casino of Loutraki – get an adrenaline rush and feel lady luck smiling at you! If you are not a fan of gambling, enjoy the other beauties of Loutraki, go on a winter seaside walk and take a traditional ouzo with local delicacies on the seaside. On Christmas Eve, we will be in Patras to visit the Casino of Rio, featuring roulette, blackjack and all types of slot machines, to get into the festive spirit... On Christmas Day and Boxing Day, we will be in Itea. You have two whole days to enjoy the winter beauties of Greece. Visit the enchanting – picturesque yet cosmopolitan - area of Arachova (known as the Mykonos of winter) for walks in its narrow lanes, coffee and dessert, shopping and, of course, traditional meat dishes and delicious pies. For the sporty types, the slopes of Parnassos await your conquest – take your boots, skis and baton and let’s go... Our last stop is Kiato, where we will visit Kalavryta another popular ski center within a scenic landscape. Read more about the Christmas Cruise Program...
