Each year, MOAA selects just two or three destinations for the widely popular Signature Groups – the most popular, highest rated trips we do every year.
For 2025, one of these Signature Groups will be the frequently requested Greek Isles. Our itinerary for this seven-night cruise departing from Athens combines unique, seldom-visited ports of call with all-time favorites like Mykonos and Santorini.
Our home during the cruise will be the World Navigator, a yacht custom-built for a highly personalized and all-inclusive experience. Complete with comfortable accommodations, globally inspired cuisine and unlimited premium cocktails, she is made for you to explore the Greek Isles in relaxed luxury.
We invite you to learn more about this exclusive cruise and Atlas Ocean Voyages. Our Epicurean expedition includes culinary demonstrations and tastings onboard led by esteemed sommeliers and acclaimed chefs. Then, head ashore with a local guide to explore farmers’ markets, sample regional cuisine, and shop for local spices, olive oils, and other delicacies.
You have the opportunity to sail on a luxury yacht cruise for what others are paying to travel with one of the megaship mass-market brands. Learn more about this amazing cruise here.

Epicurean Expeditions focus on the gastronomy and culture of the Mediterranean and Greek Isles, as well as the British Isles and Northern Europe.
Guests enjoy a free cultural immersion tour; open bars including fine wines, spirits, craft beers, specialty coffees, and fresh-pressed juices; in-room coffee bar; free Wi-Fi; L’OCCITANE bath amenities; pre-paid gratuities; included emergency medical evacuation insurance; and more.
Our stylish and intimate expedition yachts are Polar Category C- and Ice Class 1B-certified and offer every five-star luxury. Holding fewer than 200 guests, enjoy nearly a 1:1 guest-to-staff ratio and a special camaraderie and bond with fellow explorers.
World Navigator made her debut in August 2021. World Traveller joined the fleet in November 2022. A sister ship, World Seeker, will be introduced in November 2024. Two additional ships will join the fleet in the coming years.
Greek Isles Cruise
Ancient winding paths transformed into modern-day roads lead to the monumental Acropolis and other archaeological sites in Athens. Between the iconic architecture of whitewashed houses with blue domes in Mykonos, the horizon is filled with the renowned Cyclades windmills.
Explore Ephesus, a UNESCO-listed city that is thousands of years old and one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. In Palmos, be inspired at the impressive Monastery of Saint John the Theologian, another UNESCO World Heritage Site. Nestled within a natural cave six meters underground, a tour of the Koutsoyannopoulos Wine Museum and tasting of the vineyard’s Volcan wines is an experience like none other in Santorini.
With beautiful castles and quaint restaurants, Nafplion in Greece is a must-visit. It is famous for its historic center, seafront promenade and Venetian-era monuments. The island of aromas, Spetses is blanketed with pine-covered hills, while lemon trees dot winding lanes and the scent of the salty sea wafts through the air. It’s everything an idyllic island retreat should be.
