Emabarkation from Athens

Overnght in Haifa and Jerusalem

Immerse Yourself in Historic Sites & Holy Lands

You’ll embark on this inspiring Israel-rich voyage from Athens, Greece. After a relaxing day at sea, we'll arrive the following morning in Limassol, Cyprus. Stroll narrow streets lined with shops, bars, and tavernas, and visit museums and historic sites like the medieval Limassol Castle, built over one thousand years ago.

The next morning, awake in Haifa, Israel. Here, a late stay follows an overnight in port, leaving lots of time to discover biblical and archaeological wonders, including Nazareth, Galilee, and the River Jordan. Then, prepare for three full days and two nights in Jerusalem. A spiritual city, Jerusalem is diverse and distinct. Make a pilgrimage to Mt Zion, or stroll the Garden of Gethsemane—home to some of the oldest olive trees in the world. If you prefer your history in a museum, explore the Israel Museum. Of particular significance here is the Heikhal HaSefer (Shrine of the Book), the home of the Dead Sea Scrolls. You can also visit the Dead Sea—the lowest point on Earth—while you’re in Jerusalem.

Relax and recharge during a day aboard your boutique hotel at sea before continuing your immersive experience in the largest city on the isle of Crete, Heraklion. Covering 5,500 years of Cretan history, the Heraklion Archaeological Museum is filled with ancient artifacts, pottery, sculptures, wall paintings, and a Minoan collection showcasing true masterpieces. Your voyage ends in Athens, Europe’s oldest city and home to endless ancient wonders.
