THOSE WHO SEEK PARADISE ON EARTH SHOULD SEE DUBROVNIK.

G B SHAW

VENICE TO ATHENS

The dramatic beauty of the Adriatic coast has long inspired writers, poets and artists. Myriad islands with lofty mountains plunging into the sea to create winding fjords and magnificent bays, make this jagged coastline one of the natural wonders of the world. Indeed, cruising the Kornati islands and the Bay of Kotor in Montenegro allow guests to see two of the most memorable landscapes to be found anywhere. It is also easy to imagine how this honeycombed landscape was at one time the stronghold of notorious pirates.

Includes 2 nights post-cruise stay in Athens
