MV AEGEAN ODYSSEY is a premium class ship that was rebuilt to cater for cruising in the coastal waters of the central and eastern Mediterranean. The vessel provides the best features of a mid-size ship such as passenger space, a choice of restaurants and stability in inclement weather.
Originally a vessel carrying up to 570 passengers, Aegean Odyssey's new configuration includes generously-sized suites, junior suites and staterooms with balconies. She now carries an average of 350 passengers. By creating these new staterooms we have added a dimension of spaciousness to the vessel and this has enabled us to create a special level of accommodation entitled "Balcony Class".
Classically elegant, but far from stuffy and formal, Aegean Odyssey has been designed to offer the sophisticated traveller every comfort at sea.
She offers the personal service and intimate surroundings of a small ship, has the ability to visit ports that are too small for larger vessels, and navigate around the scenic islands of the Adriatic and Mediterranean.
Athens to Istanbul:
From the rise of Corinth in about 685BC to the fall of Magna Graecia, to the Romans some four hundred years later, the Greeks were responsible for one of the most brilliant and inspiring epochs in human history. They revolutionised every aspect of civilised life from art, literature and architecture to politics, philosophy and mathematics: in the words of the nineteenth-century historian Sir Henry Maine, "nothing moves in this world which is not Greek in its origin." The "isles of Greece" and the two great cities of antiquity, Athens and Istanbul, are the focus of our attention as we consider the great legacy of Greek peoples from the mainland throughout the islands and coastlands of the Mediterranean. Athens, Heraklion, Nauplia, Delos and Byzantium evoke many associations with the ancient Greek world - from the travels of Odysseus to some of the finest achievements of Greek art, to the sometimes brutal history of Athenian naval power.
