The tours are offered aboard Celebrity ships sailing the Greek Isles this summer.
The selection includes visiting a family-owned olive mill on a tour from Katakolon, discovering culinary hidden gems including the best spot for kebabs in Athens and where to take in the best panoramic vistas on Santorini.
Proud Greek heritage
'What a dream come true for our guests to experience one of the world’s most breathtaking regions through the people who know it best — our captains, who either grew up in Greece or have spent their career sailing to and visiting its ports,' Celebrity President and CEO Lisa Lutoff-Perlo said. 'Celebrity Cruises has a proud Greek heritage and Greece holds a special place in our hearts that we are now uniquely sharing with our guests.'
Celebrity was founded in 1988 by the Chandris family of Greece, later becoming a part of Royal Caribbean Group. Seventy percent of Celebrity's marine officers hail from Greece, including more than 40 captains and chief engineers.
