The 294 m long and 32 m wide cruise ship, which is of Maltese importance, set sail this morning in the port of Thessaloniki and refers to tourists a ten-day voyage full of experiences, history and a lot of relaxation.
Steve, Elizabeth and Salina are three British tourists thirsty, as they report, to get to know Thessaloniki and walk in its alleys.
They themselves say they are excited about the idea of taking a taxi and leaving money in the local community. “We do not like our money to stay on the cruise ship, the purpose is to support the local community. “We are ready to have a beer and do the shops in the city,” they say. At the same time, they report that the previous port was that of Santorini but the strong winds that blew did not allow them to complete it.
Sad that he did not see Santorini but happy that he will make Vergina is also John, an American tourist who is visiting Greece for the first time.
Most of the tourists on the cruise ship are of American origin and some are from Great Britain.
With their presence in the city they have the choice either to walk alone or to follow a tourist route, a city tour or to leave the city and visit the archeological site of Vergina.
The ship has to depart at 7:00 in the afternoon. The previous port was that of Kusadasi in Turkey, while the next stop will be the cosmopolitan Mykonos. Then comes Piraeus.
