Piraeus is the gateway to the ancient city of Athens, a historian’s delight, Athens is home to such magnificent wonders as: the Acropolis, the Parthenon, the atmospheric winding streets of the Plaka, Temple of Olympian Zeus and Temple of Athena Nike, and the Archaeological Museum with the world’s finest collection of ancient artifacts.
May 7 - Mykonos, Greece 9 AM to 7 PM
Steeped in Greek mythological history, Mykonos was named after Apollo’s grandson, Mykons, and was the location of the grand battle between Zeus and the Gigantes. Today, this island is one of Greece’s most adored destinations due to its picture- postcard setting and growing nightlife. Mykonos is a superb example of Cycladic architecture, and by law even new buildings have to be built in the same style of whitewashed, organic, cube-like buildings.
May 8 - Izmir, Turkey 7 AM to 7 PM
Garlanded around the azure-blue Bay of İzmir, Izmir has been an important Aegean port since ancient times, when it was the Greek city of Smyrna, and its seafront promenade is as fetching and lively as any in the world. From here, you can take a day tour to see the ancient ruins of Ephesus, too.
May 9 - Santorini, Greeece 10 AM to 9 PM
With dramatic views of classic whitewashed houses clinging perilously to the side of the caldera and stunning beaches of white and red sand or black pebbles, it’s no wonder this may be the most photographed scenery in the world.
May 10 - Cruising the Mediterranean Sea
May 11 - Messina (Sicily), Italy 7 AM to 6 PM
Messina, the third largest city in Sicily, was the most important port of departure for European knights on their way to the Crusades in the Middle Ages. Today, this extensively rebuilt port city still boasts many historically and architecturally significant landmarks, particularly the renowned cathedral with its unusual astronomical clock, the 12th century Catania Church and the ornate Teatro Vittorio Emanuele.
May 12 - Sorrento/Capri, Italy 7:30 AM to 6 PM
Sorrento is surely one of the world’s most beautiful towns, built on a coast with breathtaking views and landscapes. Yet it is far from a frivolous vacation destination. The houses, people and the entire region are filled with a history and culture so deep that it can be traced back to the 11th century BC. Overlooking the bay of Naples, the town is the key point on the Sorrentine Peninsula and is one of the most popular destinations of the entire Campania region. Make sure to plan a day trip to Capri, one of the most celebrated Italian islands, noted for its natural beauty.
May 13 - Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy 7 AM to 8 PM
Whether enjoying the street performers at the Spanish Steps and people-watching over a fine glass of wine in colorful Trastevere, or taking in the historical and architectural glory that is Rome, visitors are spoiled for choice in this truly Eternal City. St. Peter’s Basilica is a full-day outing, featuring the Sistine Chapel and panoramic city vistas for those willing to climb to the top of the dome. Other landmarks not to miss include the renowned Trevi Fountain and the Coliseum.
May 14- Tuscany (Livorno), Italy 8 AM to 8 PM
Livorno, located in the center of Tuscany, is the gateway to the glory of Renaissance Florence and Pisa.

May 16 - Monte Carlo, Monaco Arrive 8am
Tiny, but packed with fun, Monte Carlo offers a wonderful combination of history, beauty, entertainment and leisure. Monte Carlo is an enchanting place, known as the international capital of luxury.
