easyCruise expands Greece itineraries
easyCruise is extending its summer season in Greece and is adding 23 cabins after experiencing high demand since new itineraries went on sale four months ago.
The Greek itinerary, originally scheduled to run from May 31, will now start on May 18, with a new inaugural cruise followed by a series of weekends and short breaks before easyCruiseOne starts its regular cruise itineraries offering up to two-week holidays.
Cruises start from £20 per person for a two-night mini break, based on two people sharing a standard cabin.
Easycruise is also launching a new ‘Classical Greece’ itinerary available in October and November, taking passengers on a tour of Ancient Greece, including the Acropolis by night, a Sounion sunset and the historical sights of Mycenae, Nemea, Olympia and Delphi
A seven-night cruise starts from £70 per person, based on two people sharing a standard cabin.
easyCruise founder Stelios Haji-Ioannou said: “Greece is our most popular itinerary yet and 30% of bookings have come from people who have travelled with easyCruise before, which goes to show how well easyCruise is meeting the customer needs.”
