In the Middle Sea, the historian John Julius Norwich is unequivocal about the role played by the Greeks in the history of the Mediterranean and, indeed Western Civilisation: 'By this time (c670b) the Greeks had colonised the entire Eastern Mediterranean as far west as Sicily.

About Voyages to Antiquity

Voyages to Antiquity aims to open a window into the origins and genius of western civilisation. These expertly planned voyages, however, are not only about history. As well as visiting breathtaking archaeological treasures you will also see some of the most beautiful scenery in the world and experience the food and wine of the Mediterranean. Guest lecturers and expert speakers are an integral part of the Voyages to Antiquity experience, complementing the in depth shore excursions which are included in the price, by bringing to life the art, history and culture of the Mediterranean region each day on board Aegean Odyssey as she cruises.

THE AEGEAN ODYSSEY is a premium class ship that has been especially rebuilt to cater for cruising in the coastal waters of the central and southern Mediterranean. The vessel provides the best features of a mid-size ship such as passenger space and choice of restaurants, with the personal service and intimate surroundings of a small ship.

CRUISE IN COMFORT, RELAX IN STYLE - Originally a mid-size vessel carrying up to 570 passengers, the Aegean Odyssey’s new configuration of generously-sized suites, junior suites and staterooms, with and without balconies, means she now accommodates around 350 guests, offering the sophisticated traveller every comfort at sea.

EXTRAORDINARY VALUE - A Voyage to Antiquity includes far more than a cruise. On board you will find a casual and relaxed atmosphere, open seating dining, and expert lecturers and guest speakers who will bring to life the history of these remarkable civilisations. Your cruise fare also includes shore excursions as described in the itinerary, all gratuities on board ship, wine with dinner, flights and transfers.
