    The highlights of this cruise

    At the foot of the Burj Khalifa
    Before your embarkation on the EUROPA, you will have time to take in the sights and the breathtaking architecture of Dubai: a city tour* will reveal an array of exciting new perspectives and introduce you to marvels such as the Burj Khalifa – the world’s tallest building, which shapes the skyline of the gulf metropolis.
    Legends of seafaring
    Since it was opened almost 150 years ago, the Suez Canal has captured the imagination of sailors and cruise passengers from all over the world. From your VIP vantage point on board the EUROPA, watch as you pass through this legendary waterway that connects the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. Live commentary by our lecturer will make it an event to remember.
    In the footsteps of the ancient world
    Trace the footsteps of the Minotaur in Knossos, just a few miles from the Cretan city of Heraklion. Explore the ruins of the Palace of Knossos – Crete’s most significant archaeological site – on an individual tour**. With almost full access to the monumental ruins, you can discover fascinating features such as the throne room or world-famous dolphin fresco for yourself.
    Mediterranean delicacies
    Whether it is herbs, olives, vegetables or fresh fish: the market hall in Chania** on Crete is a must for any culinary connoisseur. The building was built in the neoclassical style between 1911 and 1913 and was modelled on the Halles de la Major in Marseille. It is now the perfect place to go for Mediterranean delicacies in their many different forms. Treat your taste buds to a trip around the countless stalls and round off your visit in one of the Cretan tavernas with a wonderfully laid-back atmosphere.

    ** These tips are individual activities which are not organised by Hapag-Lloyd Cruises. Hapag-Lloyd Cruises makes no guarantee in connection with opening hours. Our travel concierge will be happy to help (fees apply).

    Dubai, home to futuristic structures such as the Burj al Arab, is our starting point for a cruise that revolves around one thing above all else: your well-being. Leave the vibrant Gulf metropolis behind and focus on looking after ‘number one’: take the time to complete a workout on our jogging lane or learn how to update your look with our new Beauty at Sea programme. A further highlight awaits you on deck: the legendary passage through the SUEZ CANAL, with live commentary from your regional lecturer. Finally, the World’s Most Beautiful Yacht will bring you to CRETE, where you can explore Knossos* and the quaint mountain village of Arolithos*. The next day, you will embark on your return journey from Athens – well-rested and with plenty of fabulous memories to take with you.
