Elegant air-conditioned cruise boats, delicious food, live entertainment and music, dancing, and happy faces from  all over the world on a wonderful voyage to the Greek islands. Let's sail together! You only need to bring your camera. we'll bring the good mood!

On this One Day Cruise to  Aegina, Poros & Hydra upon arrival to Piraeus you will receive a warm welcome from our Officers and Hostesses who will assist you with boarding one of our luxurious cruise ships and invite you to proceed either to the Main Lounge, where our live orchestra has already started putting you in the right mood with its international music repertoire, or to one of the spacious open decks where you can enjoy the fascinating view as the ship leaves the port.

At 08:00 am the One Day Cruise ship sails from Piraeus Port for the three beautiful islands of the Saronic Gulf.

The order in which we shall visit the islands is either Poros - Hydra - Aegina  or Aegina - Poros - Hydra which does not change the duration of stay on any of the islands.

Shortly after departure, our multi-lingual guides and hostesses will invite you to assemble in one of the Lounges, in order to give you all necessary information concerning the ship, the cruise program as well as the islands. This will also be an opportunity for you to get answers to any questions you might have, as our trained staff is there to ensure that you will have a most wonderful day.

Within 2 hours, we will arrive to the island of Poros, the smallest of the three islands, separated from the Peloponnese by a narrow strait and offering a most enchanting view of Poros Town. Your time at leisure in Poros to scroll around the small picturesque streets of the island town, will be about 50 minutes.

Immediately upon the ship's departure from Poros, lunch will be served for passengers who have the first sitting. As we sail towards Hydra the remaining guests relax in the Ship's Lounge in happy hour or enjoy the sun and beautiful panoramic view from one of our spacious decks.

An hour and 15 minutes later, we enter the port of Hydra, whose amphitheater shape once served as a safe shelter for Saronic Pirates. From the decks, you will be able to admire the very special architecture and dramatic landscapes of this island, whose old traditional stone houses and mansions silently stand witness to a long and turbulent history.

As soon as you disembark, it's all there; the small narrow stone-paved streets waiting to be explored on foot or by the island's traditional vehicles, the saddled donkey... captivating walks along the old seaside promenade.. crystal clear waters, radiant traditional fine-craft shops.. the beauty of Hydra will conquer you forever!

You will have about 1 hour and 30 minutes at leisure to enjoy the unique charms of Hydra and while returning back on board you will receive a homecoming welcome. The tables will be set for the second sitting giving you an opportunity to taste the gastronomic creations of our Chef. After your meal relax with our orchestra and singers, and have a good laugh with our entertainers!
As you sail on, dancers will make you dance to Greek rhythms.

Time will fly quickly and after a two hour trip we shall arrive to our last port of call, the island of Aegina.

Aegina is the largest of the three islands. Apart from its harbor there are numerous interesting sites to discover on the island or you can stay in Aegina town and enjoy a walk or horse-carriage ride around the town or relax in one of the harbor's charming waterfront coffee shops.

And if you think that the day ends here?.. you are mistaken!

The highlight of your cruise still awaits!

A Traditional Greek Folk Show with singers and dancers in original costumes form all around Greece will entertain and animate you up to the final moment as the ship docks in Piraeus at 19:30 pm.

Finally we will wish you a warm farewell and while looking forward to seeing you again on one of our cruises!!
