Variety Cruises celebrate 75 years!

Congratulations to our partner Variety Cruises who are celebrating their 75th Anniversary. This award-winning family-run company began as a tour operator in Greece in 1949 and has today expanded to cruise 16 different countries including Greece, the Seychelles, Tahiti, The Gambia, Cape Verde and many more. Their fleet of small boats offer guests a more intimate cruising experience with the chance to drop anchor in hidden coves for a swim in crystal clear waters, and the ability to dock in small, scenic harbours.

2024 has seen the introduction of new itineraries including:

Unexplored Greece: Aegean Islands – an 8-day cruise that takes guests off-the-beaten path. The 10 stunning island destinations visited offer a more nourishing side of Greece, a taste of true Greek culture. These are places where people take pride in offering hospitality – in line with the ancient custom of filoxenia, love of strangers – and where things are done with meraki, love and soul. A cruise voyage unraveling the most authentic Cycladic and Dodecanese islands of Greece. Discover unknown gems with rich history, incomparable light, translucent water, and heavenly beaches.

Ionian Odyssey – An eight day cruise from Athens visiting the beautiful Ionian islands. The itinerary includes Kefalonia, Paxos, Corfu, Ithaca, Vathi, Messolonghi and Angistri. Immerse yourself in a world of enchanting beauty. Explore emerald landscapes that stretch as far as the eye can see, where hillsides are adorned with vibrant flora. Dip into sparkling turquoise waters that beckon you to unwind and discover the secrets beneath the surface. Wander through colorful port towns, each exuding a tranquil charm that invites you to savor the unique essence of Greek island life. This is a voyage to a realm where every moment is painted in hues of serenity and magic.
