Details

Embark on an enchanting 8-day odyssey aboard the elegant ship Le Champlain, sailing from Athens and returning to the cradle of Western civilisation. Over seven nights, you’ll explore the Aegean’s most evocative corners — from verdant islands to ancient cities and rock-hewn monasteries — all bathed in the soft light of autumn.

Each port reveals a different facet of Greece’s past and beauty: wander the narrow lanes and turquoise-watered beaches of Skiathos; stroll through the leafy port city of Volos at the foot of mythical hills; explore the historic heart of Thessaloniki with its layered civilisations; sail beside the sacred monastic cliffs of Mount Athos; discover the ancient vestiges at Philippi near Kavala; and wander the tranquil streets of Limnos before gliding into the serene charm of Hydra.

The cruise is all-inclusive, with one curated excursion per guest at each port — from majestic UNESCO-listed monasteries at Meteora to royal tombs at Vergina — offering a seamless blend of culture, history, and natural splendour.

At journey’s end, you return to Athens — a city crowned by the timeless monuments of the Acropolis — enriched with memories of hidden isles, ancient paths, and the timeless magic of the Aegean.
