This 7-night Rome to Athens cruise departs from Rome and calls at the following ports:

Rome, the Eternal City, stands as a testament to millennia of history, culture, and art. Its iconic landmarks, from the grandeur of the Colosseum to the majesty of the Vatican City, draw millions of visitors each year. Wandering through its cobblestone streets, one encounters ancient ruins juxtaposed with Renaissance palaces, each telling a story of Rome's enduring legacy. The aroma of freshly brewed espresso mingles with the scent of freshly baked pizza, inviting exploration of its vibrant culinary scene. With its fountains, piazzas, and the timeless allure of the Tiber River, Rome beckons travelers to immerse themselves in its timeless beauty and embrace its unparalleled charm.

NAPLES

Naples, a city steeped in history and mythology, captivates with its raw energy and rich cultural heritage. Nestled along the azure waters of the Bay of Naples, this southern Italian gem is famed for its vibrant street life, iconic cuisine, and ancient ruins. Wander through its labyrinthine alleys, where laundry flutters in the breeze and the aroma of Neapolitan pizza fills the air. Discover hidden gems like the opulent Royal Palace of Caserta or the haunting ruins of Pompeii nearby. With its passionate locals, striking architecture, and dramatic vistas of Mount Vesuvius, Naples offers an unforgettable journey into the heart of Italy.

SICILY

Sicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean, is a captivating blend of diverse cultures, stunning landscapes, and ancient history. Its strategic location has made it a melting pot of civilizations, evident in its Greek temples, Roman amphitheatres, and Norman cathedrals. The island's rugged coastline boasts sandy beaches, hidden coves, and azure waters perfect for exploration. Inland, rolling hills are dotted with olive groves, vineyards, and charming hilltop towns, each with its own unique character and culinary delights. From the vibrant markets of Palermo to the timeless beauty of Taormina, Sicily offers a journey through time and a feast for the senses.

Santorini is one of the world’s most popular islands, known best for its dramatic scenery, whitewashed villages and fiery volcanic activity. Here adventure bubbles above the Aegean Sea in the most bold and breathtaking ways. A cable car takes you to the capital of Fira, a bustling cliff-top town awash with old cathedrals, enthralling museum collections and cozy tavernas. Venture to the coast for a swim in the deep blue waters that lap red and black pebbled beaches. And peel back layers of lava and history among excavated Akrotiri. Whether it’s by bicycle, ATV or on your own two feet, exploring this Cyclades isle never fails to impress.

The UNESCO World Heritage ruins of Ephesus impress even those familiar with the world's other ancient cities. Though excavations have been underway for 150 years, only 20 percent of the city has been uncovered. Check out the the Celsus Library — built in 117 A.D., the site is made up of towering columns highlighted by the statue of the goddess of wisdom. Cruises to Ephesus will give you a taste of Turkish life by strolling the seafront promenade and the bustling city center. Walk Marble Street, paved with actual marble slabs, which takes you from downtown to the Temple of Artemis — you can still see one lone remaining column from this wonder of the ancient world.

Nestled in the heart of Greece’s Cyclades archipelago, Mykonos pulses with irrepressible energy. With its powder white houses, sparkling blue waters, and red-hot nightlife, The Island of the Winds is as colorful as the people who call the island home. You can walk narrow marble pathways laced with purple bougainvillea blooms, or go cycling on two wheels past off-the-path Ano Mera village. Explore Greece’s maritime history at Armenistis Lighthouse, and check out the Folklore Museum’s Mykonian ship models. Join in the raucous beach party on Super Paradise’s shimmering sands, or watch the sun burn out beyond an Aegean horizon from an open-air seaside taverna.

Athens offers a looking glass back in time into Greece's powerful ancient civilization. Art lovers, epicureans and history buffs will be delighted by the ancient ruins, museums and tavernas of this picturesque town. Just 10 minutes from the port, you'll find the Archaeological Museum of Piraeus, filled with sculptures from the Bronze Age to the Romans. Walk to the Zea Harbour to discover how the Hellenic Maritime Museum will bring to life the grandeur of ancient Greece's naval capacities. Jump onboard an Athens cruise and relax at the small harbor of Mikrolimano, enjoying a meal of grilled octopus and chilled white wine at a small restaurant overlooking the sea.

Voyager of the Seas® has plenty of surprises to fill your wandering with wonder. Onboard you'll find junkanoo-jamming parades on the Promenade, Far East flavors at Izumi, and thrills on every deck, from wave riding on the FlowRider® surf simulator to late night spins around the ice-skating rink.
