What do you think of Windstar Cruises spending more time in the Greek Isles in 2011?Windstar, which operates three motor-sail-yachts—Wind Spirit, Wind Star, and Wind Surf—announced recently that the 312-passenger Wind Surf will join the 148-passenger Wind Spirit and Wind Star in Greece this summer.
Wind Surf sails six Greek Isles voyages departing July 16; July 23; September 24; October 1; October 8; and October 15, 2011.
Wind Star offers 18 Greek Isles voyages departing May 21; May 28; June 4; June 11; June 18; June 25; July 2; July 9; August 6; August 13; August 20; August 27; September 3; September 10; September 17; September 24; October 1; and October 8, 2011.
Wind Spirit Greek Isles voyages depart May 14; May 21; May 28; June 4; September 10; and September 17, 2011.
Ports visited on these sailings include Athens, Greece; Mykonos, Greece; Santorini, Greece; Rhodes, Greece; Bodrum, Turkey; Kuşadasi, Turkey; and Istanbul, Turkey.
This is interesting. These are gorgeous ports but I would suggest sailing early or late in the season. The last time I visited Turkey and Greece in July, it was unbearably hot and it was exhausting to tour all day.
I'd love to see Windstar sail a Northern Europe itinerary with a stop in St. Malo, France. That's a port on my "must visit soon" list.
