Grecian & Roman Gems with Luxury Athens Stay

Exclusive to The Cruise Line
Includes return flights from the UK, private overseas transfers, two-night pre-cruise stay in Athens, and a seven-night Mediterranean cruise aboard Seabourn Quest.

Cruise overview
Where else can you walk through the original Olympic stadium at dawn, then find yourself three days later exploring Albania’s forgotten coastal treasures before the crowds discover them? This Mediterranean odyssey aboard Seabourn Quest traces the arc of ancient civilisation while revealing contemporary secrets tucked between legendary ports.
From Nafplion’s Venetian fortresses rising above turquoise waters to the raw, untouched beauty of Sarande’s natural harbour, each destination feels deliberately chosen rather than simply convenient. Stand among Pompeii’s preserved streets where time stopped in AD 79, then drift into Corfu’s olive groves where Byzantine churches hide behind every hillside. The intimacy of Seabourn Quest—carrying just 458 guests—means you’ll discover Albania’s emerging coastline alongside fellow travellers who appreciate the rarity of such access, long before this corner of the Mediterranean joins the well-trodden trail.
