What to expect
See a different side to Greece on this day of island-hopping in the Saronic Gulf. You'll stop by Hydra, Poros and Aegina, lesser-known but steeped in unique charm and history. "Explore each island at your leisure, and enjoy an included lunch onboard.
Cast off from Piraeus port and leave the city behind as you glide through the deep blue. You'll head to Hydra first, an island renowned for its well-preserved and unspoiled beauty. Hydra is car-free, making it a peaceful place to relax and soak in the sights and views. Explore the cobblestone streets, admire the traditional stone houses, and perhaps enjoy a coffee at a seaside café.
You'll then tuck into a tasty lunch onboard as you sail to Poros, known for its quaint port town. Stroll along the waterfront and have a poke around local shops, before your final stop at Aegina, the most remote of the three. Here, you can explore the narrow backstreets, visit the historic Venetian Markellos Tower, or opt for a tour of the ancient Temple of Aphaia.

Private Athens Tour with Acropolis and Plaka
The ancient Greeks left behind a treasure trove of monuments, statues and artefacts in Athens. And on this private tour, you'll take in all the top spots with an expert guide. Exclusively for you and your party, you'll tour highlights including the Roman Agora, Hadrian's Library, the Plaka neighbourhood and the UNESCO-listed Acropolis. Vassiliki, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Acropolis means “high city” and it usually refers to any settlement built on top of a hill. You'll find many towns in Greece that have an acropolis, but the Acropolis of Athens is certainly the most famous.'You'll start with a guided tour of the Acropolis – with skip-the-line tickets, there'll be no waiting around. Soak up wow-factor views over Athens at the Areopagus – a rocky hill where legend has it the Greek gods would hold court. Let your guide bring history to life as you marvel at ancient landmarks like the Roman Agora, the Theatre of Dionysus and the still-standing columns of the Asklepieion and Parthenon. Then, it's on to the city's Instagram-worthy old quarter, Plaka – the capital's most appealing and historic neighbourhood. Always thronged with a mix of locals and visitors, the pedestrianised lanes are brimming with tavernas whose tables spill onto the streets. Vassiliki says, ‘Athenians call this area “the neighbourhood of the Gods,' as it has been inhabited since the days of ancient Greece. In fact, excavations show that the street layout has barely changed since antiquity.'
