I visited one of my top dream destinations, GREECE, with the Virgin Voyages and I had the time of my life!

So, Virgin Voyages is the world’s #1 cruise line and now I understand why. Through Virgin, you can visit over 100 gorgeous destinations and they have 20+ eateries with Michelin star chef-curated menus. Relax in their Virgin-red balcony hammocks and “sea” why everyone is getting on board their luxuriously designed, exclusively adult cruises.

On to GREECE! I have written down my itinerary from each destination for you.

PIRAEUS (ATHENS)

I arrived in Athens, after being flown over by Delta AND I carried on (I know, shocking!).

• Departed Athens Airport (use Uber or hire a private driver)
• I had our private driver take us by the Panathenaic Stadium (original Olympic stadium), Parthenon, Acropolis and Areopagus (where Paul preached to the Athenians)

3:30 p.m. Boarded the ship!

SANTORINI

• Santorini & Oia  (Fira Town to Oia) – this is where you will find the famous white buildings with the blue domes! MY PERSONAL BUCKET LIST.
• Then had lunch in Ammoudi – this is such a charming spot and I definitely recommend it if you are ever in Santorini.

RHODES

9:00 AM – 6:00 PM, local time

• Kallithea Springs and swam in the Aegean Sea, enjoyed the cabana, delish food and of course, a few aperol spritz 😉

• Walked around old town Rhodes before heading back to the ship.
