Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Rineia, Rinia, Greece
Your sailing cruise experience starts when you’re picked up by complimentary shared transportation to reach the embarkation point. One of your cruise representatives will greet you and give you an overview of the cruise itinerary.
Meet your cruise representative and friendly crew at 8:45am and get a safety briefing before climbing aboard the yacht. If you like, help the crew raise and trim the sails and get a lesson in steering as you make your way out into the bright blue Aegean, or you can simply soak up the sun on deck.
After about one hour of sailing, drop anchor in an unspoiled bay at the island of Rhenia for a swimming and snorkeling break off a golden sand beach. When you’ve had your fill of the water, enjoy a delicious lunch right on board featuring either Italian pasta with Greek flavored dressing and Greek Salad or a local Mediterranean style buffet and fresh local fruits, and a selection of complimentary house wine and soft drinks.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Archaeological Site of Delos, 846 00 Greece
After about two hours in Rhenia Island, go ashore at Delos, the birthplace of the Apollo according to Greek mythology, for a licensed guided tour of the UNESCO-listed ruins of an ancient Greek trading and pilgrimage city (entrance fee not included). Explore the remnants of temples and marketplaces, see sacred artifacts in the museum, and hike up Mt. Kythnos for spectacular views of the island and surrounding sea.
Climb back aboard the yacht in the late afternoon and start the return voyage to Mykonos, where the full-day tour concludes around 4:30pm and complimentary shuttle transportation will be waiting for you. Say goodbye—in Greek style—with a farewell drink toast.
