Celestyal has launched a series of National Geographic Day Tours, available on cruises in Greece and Croatia. The one-day and half-day tours are led by National Geographic-trained guides and are built on the storytelling, special access and expert knowledge that are the company’s forte.
In Athens, the theme is the Olympic Games. From the birth of the Olympics to Athens 2004, guests can trace the evolution of the games on an in-depth tour of Olympic sites and discover how ancient Greek athletes continue to inspire the country today.
In Rhodes, guests can choose between a 4×4 exploration to off-the-beaten-path parts of the island. Or guests can choose the fascinating world of bees, with a visit to the Bee Museum of Rhodes.
Another intriguing option is Blutopia: a marine biology experience. Guests will explore Blutopia, a family business trying to protect the natural marine environment and encourage young scientists to make it their life’s work.
And in Dubrovnik guests can tour of Croatia’s Konvale region, where the local art form of silk production and traditional embroidery is being kept alive for future generations. Another selection is a visit to a working oyster at Mali Ston Bay. And an exclusive tour will be led by a National Geographic photography guide to create captivating images of Dubrovnik’s landmarks and hidden gems.
All of the tours meet the criteria of the Global Sustainable Tourism Council and booking support the National Geographic Society’s exploration, research, and education.
“These tours are a game-changer, says Lee Haslett, Chief Commercial Officer at Celestyal. “They offer a unique chance to experience the authentic Greece and Croatia, while also supporting local communities and sustainable tourism practices.”
