Aegean Cruises

The Adriatic Sea is home to over 6,000 Greek islands, fascinating architecture and jaw-dropping natural beauty, but what it's best known for is history.

In the Golden Age of Greece, the Aegean Sea helped the Greek civilisations flourish in trade and war. Across this region, you'll find the ruins of this once-thriving civilisation. From the great temple of Apollo in Delos (birthplace of divine twins, Apollo and Artemis) to Knossos Palace - the rumoured location of a mythical labyrinth and home to a fearsome minotaur, you can retrace the steps of Classical heroes on our ocean cruises in the Aegean.

Visit exciting destinations in mainland Greece and Turkey - including Athens, home of the famous Acropolis, and island hop through the Cyclades where the beaches are golden sand, the architecture is blue and white, and the people still follow age-old traditions. Or sail through the Aegean while exploring even more of the Mediterranean - check out our Voyage Across the Mediterranean ocean cruise to sail all the way from Spain to Greece).

Choose to sail on our beautiful four-masted tall ships to experience the glamour and sophistication of the golden era of nautical travel or Celestyal Journey to travel on a larger ship with all the amenities of a resort (including a packed schedule of evening entertainment and not one but seven restaurants).
