Ports
Piraeus
Piraeus is located to the south of Athens. It is the capital of the Piraeus Prefecture and belongs to the Athens urban area. It was the port of the ancient city of Athens and it was chosen to serve as the modern port when Athens was re-founded in 1834. Piraeus remains one of the busiest shipping and industrial centres of the Mediterranean.

Athens
You reach the bustling port of Piraeus, just a hop away from the ‘Mother of Civilisation’, peerless Athens. Redolent with mythology, what better place could there be to start the day than with a visit to the Acropolis? Now in ruins, the grandeur of this magnificent city is still breathtaking.

Port Said
While youthful Port Said is often overlooked for Egypt’s legendary capital of Cairo, it’s well worth a look, especially the outstanding beaches north of town. Of course, don’t miss nearby Cairo, which has been the nation’s heart and soul for more than 1,000 years. Rarely is the dichotomy of modern and medieval sensibilities more apparent—skyscrapers tower over earthen houses, and fast cars dart around donkey-drawn carts, as this teeming city of 16 million residents live harmoniously.

Tartous
Tartus was called Antaradus by the Pheonicians and Tortusa by the Byzantines. Tortusa was to become one of supply ports for the Crusaders and a military base of considerable importance. It was held by the Templars, but recovered by Saladin in 1188. The arches, wall-towers and narrow lanes in Tartus evoke what the town must have been like in medieval times. A jewel of Romanesque art is the cathedral of Tartus, which is now a museum containing relics from various Syrian civilizations.

Larnaka is an excellent base from which to get to know the central and eastern section of Cyprus, and its proximity to the International Airport and a number of luxury hotels that have been developed along its beautiful sandy beaches make this a popular holiday choice.
