Celestyal Cruises has announced the 2018 itinerary of its seven-day “Idyllic Aegean” cruise, which combines calls and shore excursions at some of the top destinations in the Greek isles with longer stays on each destination.

The “Idyllic Aegean” cruise will include overnights in nightlife hotspots, such as Mykonos and Santorini; calls on Milos and Iraklio, Crete; and a full-day on Samos or in Kuşadası, which is only a short bus ride to the archaeological site of Ancient Ephesus.

The “Celestyal Crystal” cruise ship will be sailing on the “Idyllic Aegean” cruise from April 30 to October 15.

Celestyal Cruises said it designed the specific itinerary in response to requests from passengers for more relaxed voyages and longer stays at its destinations.
