We will pick you up from the hotel to transfer you to the port where you can board the cruise ship. You know that is only for a few people and you and your fellow travelers are the lucky ones. Your heart will pound approaching the ship.
Aegina is a love at first sight, you will enjoy the ride on the carriage viewing the traditional settlement in the port and will taste the famous sweet preserves of the blooming pistachio trees of the island. The famous worldwide nut of pistachio is the result of the dry climate and the volcanic structure of the island. What cannot be missed is the popular sacred temple of Aphaia Athena that according to an ancient secret, the temple forms an isosceles triangle with the temple of Poseidon in Sounion and the Parthenon of Acropolis in Athens. The visit on the island lasts 1 hour 50 minutes.

Exquisite spots the “Lemon forest” and the museum of shells. The visit on the island lasts about 1 hour 50 minutes.
The day is full of beautiful images and the tour in the Saronic Gulf will be completed just before the Aegean Sea stretches its blue hug to put our sun to sleep.
