| Sep 18-Sep 30 | Greek Odyssey | Our adventurous non-skiing trip includes a tour of the Aegean Islands aboard the Louis Cruise Lines Aquamarine and a land excursion of Greece. After an overnight flight to Paris on Air France and a Saturday morning connection to Athens, we'll spend Saturday and Sunday in that city before embarking Monday morning on our 4-day/4-night cruise, returning Friday morning Sep 25. Our 4-day/3-night bus tour (Fri-Mon) will take us to many of the country's historical attractions with overnights in Olympia, Delphi and Kalambaka. We end our odyssey with another two nights in Athens (Mon & Tue), allowing us some shopping opportunities in that city (so that we don't have to lug our purchases aboard the ship and bus!). Our 4 nights in Athens & 3 nights on tour are all in 4-star Amalia Hotels. We fly home on Wed Sep 30. Price includes all air, lodging, transfers, most meals, and medical (not cancellation) insurance. BRSC Sanctioned. Here's a link to the SmugMug photo galleries for the trip and to Don Viecelli's Picasa Photo Gallery.
