Monemvasia, Greece
Monemvasia, Greece
The castle town of Monemvasia is among the most impressive destinations in Greece. Located on the southeastern side of the Peloponnese, Monemvasia was entirely carved on the back side of a limestone rock during the Middle Ages. The great rock, often called the “Gibraltar of Greece,” is intentionally not visible from the mainland in order to shelter it from attacks. Because the only way to reach Monemvasia was by boat, its name, meaning “single passage,” is appropriate. Today, the castle is connected to the mainland, just opposite the rock. The Archaeological Museum, housed in a Muslim mosque opposite the Church of Elkomenos Christos, sits inside the castle walls. Besides the panoramic views that the castle affords, Monemvasia offers visitors the twelfth-century Byzantine Church of Hagia Sofia, located on the edge of a cliff overlooking the sea.

The crew was fabulous, we were treated like kings & queens, very personal, like no other experience we've ever had. See you next year and every year thereafter. Mr & Mrs AmbroseTexas
We've had a lovely time. My husband's request for his 70th birthday was to be on SeaDream in the Caribbean, and we've really enjoyed it. SeaDream is by far, the best cruise line in the Caribbean. Catherine B.Great Britain
...We had a great time-best ever, and will be coming back...Charlie and I feel like we've been yachting with our "best friends". Hard to believe we didn't know anyone on the yacht 8 days ago-now we've met new traveling friends for the years to come. Mr & Mrs HoganWashington
This was a wonderful experience thanks largely to the size of the ship and the wonderful staff – they made it memorable. Mr & Mrs BoyleSouth Africa
You guys are the best! Excellent service and the team! Anna L.Florida
I hate Commercial Cruises. So I reluctantly signed up for a SeaDream, and after a week on the boat, I could not think of one thing that was not done to perfection. The food was great, the staff was spectacular, and having only 50 couples made this a private yacht cruise. I have signed up for my second cruise, and probably will only Yacht with SeaDream in my future. Pat M.Florida
