  • 12th August 2011Our first stop in Athens today was Lycabettus hill, the highest in Athens. We caught a funicular to the top, straight through the mountain, which came out at a tiny chapel, an expensive restaurant and panoramic views. I thought there Posted by kimdanny in Kim and Danny 2011 | Aug 17, 2011
  • Ancient Acropolis of Athens If waking up in Croatia was like Christmas, then waking up in Greece was a bit like April Fool's- not what I expected. Piraeus, the port of Athens, was very industrial and a little on Posted by ksil91 in Captain's Blog | Aug 13, 2011
  • 11th August 2011We drove into the caravan park about 10am. As soon as we walked into reception the lady who runs the place starts scolding us for parking on the street last night, saying the police called up at 5am asking why Posted by kimdanny in Kim and Danny 2011 | Aug 13, 2011
  • 10th August 2011It was so good to get out of the car and into the slightly cooler outside world. We wandered around Thessaloniki for a couple of hours, without aiming to see many sights. Thessaloniki is supposedly Greece's 2nd city, but it Posted by kimdanny in Kim and Danny 2011 | Aug 12, 2011
  • 9th August 2011We headed over to Gallipoli National Park early to try and beat any crowds. Turns out it was probably not the best time to go to Gallipoli. Firstly, we couldn't find the museum. After going back and forth a few Posted by kimdanny in Kim and Danny 2011 | Aug 12, 2011
  • I need a Map!WOW! Rhodes is stunning! From the moment I stepped off the ferry I could feel the history! I was able to take a taxi from the port to my hotel and the taxi was able to drive through the Grand Posted by Rachelabby in My Life Around the World | Aug 10, 2011
  • Santorini Day 7Having to re-rent another ATV (since someone accidently returned our original one a tad too early), we head off to Thira yet again.

  • Santorini Day 4, 5 & 6Following on from our lazy Saturday, we continue the pattern with two more lazy days. Waking up late, lazing by the pool and to mix it up just a bit, on Monday, we hop back on our thundering (ha, yeah Posted by iszyriley in Travel Adventures 2011/12 | Jul 24, 2011

  • July 21st: Mykonos, GreeceMykonos was AWESOME! Our ship didn’t anchor until around 11:30am, and from afar, Mykonos didn’t look as beautiful as I had imagined. In movies, a Greek island looks like a hill completely covered in white houses with blue roofs. Mykonos Posted by lauraodo in Laura's Travel Blog | Jul 20, 2011
  • July 18th: Piraeus and "Athens" Steven and I got up at 6am to get ready for our excursion into Athens. When we got onto the top deck we saw a great view of the city of Piraeus as we pulled into port. Although pretty from Posted by lauraodo in Laura's Travel Blog | Jul 17, 2011

  • Picture Perfect SantoriniSantorini is one of those places they say you must visit if you go to the Greek islands. Now that I have visited, I can see why. It looks exactly like the postcards and pictures you see. Posted by jknazef in The Navigating Nazefs | Jul 24, 2011
  • The Race for Apollo's ArchOn our last night with the Mooneys in Naxos, we wanted to visit one of the most popular spots, Apollo's Arch, and we wanted to do it at sunset. We drive into town and ate a great dinner not Posted by jknazef in The Navigating Nazefs | Jul 24, 2011

  • AthensI have never really liked Athens and Tony feels the same - its just not an interesting city outside of the Acropolis and like-attractions. Since we made a point of seeing the Acropolis three years ago, we decided to avoid Posted by Yenville in Yens on Tour | Jul 24, 2011
  • Arrival in AthensWe wake in Piraeus, the port of Athens.
