Sail the Aegean aboard the exclusively chartered Le Lapérouse, an intimate yacht well suited to coastal exploration. This journey traces the legacy of ancient civilizations across Greece and coastal Turkey, combining archaeology, culture, and time to experience each destination at your own pace. Begin in Athens before sailing to Chania, Crete’s Venetian-influenced port city. Choose how you spend the day–wander the Old Town’s narrow streets, visit archaeological sites, or unwind on a nearby beach. Continue to Santorini, where visits include the excavations of Akrotiri, a Bronze Age settlement preserved beneath volcanic ash, and free time in Fira overlooking the caldera. Crossing into Turkey, select between a visit to the Ephesus Museum or the House of the Virgin Mary, along with a stop at a traditional carpet-weaving workshop. Return to Greece to explore Rhodes, where the UNESCO-listed Medieval City reflects centuries of rule from the Knights Hospitaller through the Ottoman era. The journey continues to Delos, revered in antiquity as the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis and one of Greece’s most significant archaeological sites. Conclude in Mykonos with time to explore its whitewashed streets and lively waterfront before returning to Athens. An optional pre-extension in Athens is available.
