Vaccinated? You Can Cruise the Greek Isles This Summer!
Published Saturday, April 10th 2021Celebrity Apex, Royal Caribbean Jewel of the Seas and Norwegian Jade recently announced NEW cruises to the Greek Isles for summer.
The new Apex carries forward Celebrity's traditions of outstanding service, worldclass entertainment and dining that's always a step above. Celebrity includes free pre-paid gratuities, free WiFi and free Classic Beverage Package including tips. Choose an Infinite Veranda or Suite, starting at $2299, with special air rates from select cities from $699 per person.
Cruising roundtrip from legendary Athens, you'll visit Santorini, Mykonos, Cyprus and the Knights Templar stronghold of Rhodes. Wow! Each stop is breathtaking, and fortunately, you also get two sea days to catch your breath, taking in the majesty of the awesome Apex herself.
But that's not your only choice.
Royal Caribbean Jewel of the Seas is a wonderful ship that Julie and I enjoyed in the Western Caribbean a few years back. She has everything active families need to enjoy a wonderful vacation.
From the unique embarkation of Cyprus, a fascinating country, you cruise to Athens, Santorini, Mykonos, Rhodes and my wife's paternal ancestral home of Chania, Crete. You have only one sea day on Jewel of the Seas, but if you're like my nephew Jered, you'll find time to dance every night right through the wee hours of the morning in the disco.
Norwegian Jade brings a more casual "freestyle" approach. You can pick splendid suite or standard staterooms with all the "Free at Sea" amenitites, or you can take a more Spartan approach with an x-guarantee room sans amenities to take advantage of rock bottom pricing. Right now, book your flights to Greece using NCL's buy one, get one free promotion!
Cruising from Athens, Jade visits Rhodes, Mykonos, Santorini, Olympia, gorgeous Corfu and Ctete's Iraklion, home of the famous Minoan Civilization. Yes, that's a port every day, but you can choose a port to stay aboard the ship if you want. My guess is the Sirens will tempt you ashore every single day.
So, which flavor is right for you?
The only way you can go wrong would be to stay home and miss this summer.
Opa!
