Picture yourself soaking up the sunshine at a waterfront taverna on a picture-perfect Greek Isle, relaxing after a day of exploring historic Old Towns or having made the most of a golden sandy beach.
Well, that's exactly what's on offer thanks to a new holiday from Imagine Cruising, complete with visits to the likes of Crete, Mykonos and Rhodes.
The ultra-luxurious 12-night Rhodes Retreat & Greek Isles cruise also boasts a lavish all-inclusive break - and with prices from £1,299pp a night, it offers up amazing value at approximately £108pp a night.
The holiday kicks off in Rome (there are a host of UK airports you can choose to depart from), where you'll embark on Princess Cruises' Regal Princess cruise ship on an itinerary that spans Italy, the Greek islands and Turkey.
The ship itself has some pretty cool features too from the glass-bottomed SeaWalk® walkway that's cantilevered from the ship, to a giant poolside film screen, an adults-only retreat ad plenty of eateries from grills to pizzerias.
As for the itinerary?
Sailing from Rome you'll head to beautiful Naples where you can hike and enjoy views of Mount Vesuvius before tucking into what's said to be some of the world's best pizza.
Crete's breathtaking beaches and high mountains will be your next port of call, followed by a visit to Turkey's historic Kuşadası with its bustling markets and ancient ruins.
The vibrant city of Istanbul is also on offer for intrepid explorers, with ample opportunity to visit famous landmarks such as the city's Grand Bazaar and Spice Market.
From Istanbul you'll head to famous party hotspot Mykonos where golden sandy beaches and turquoise waters await, although you'll also want to leave time to explore the town's tavernas and luxurious boutiques (there's a reason why Mykonos is such a celebrity hotspot).
The cruise ends in Athens, but the holiday itself is far from over.
Instead, you'll board a flight onwards to spectacular Rhodes - and there's heaps more luxury that awaits.
That's because Imagine Cruising is offering a five-night stay at the all-inclusive, five-star Mitsis Grand Hotel Beach Hotel. We're talking three swimming pools, two bars, six restaurants, and a luxurious spa, not to mention the hotel is just a few minutes' walk from Rhodes' best sights and landmarks.
If you can tear yourself away from poolside R&R, Rhodes' picturesque Old Town has a whole host of shops, bars and tavernas for a fun night out.
Want to discover it all for yourself? Prices start from £1,299pp based on April-October 2022 departures. Find out more and book at imaginecruising.co.uk.
