Creator's Key Takeaways

We're home from our Greek adventure (Corfu, Dubrovnik & More!) with Virgin Voyages!

It was 40° or say. What's that in other? I checked. I think it's 107 Fahrenheit.

The sale in and out of Cotor. That was probably one of the best sales into a port that we've ever had.

We were lucky enough to sail as Blackers. So, we had a separate tent that was air conditioned.

Creator's Tips & Advice

If sailing out of Athens from Virgin, be aware that Terminal C has limited facilities and is essentially a tent.
Don't plan to wait at the port if you're at Terminal C; consider dropping bags and taking a shuttle into town.
If visiting the Acropolis in summer, go early or be prepared for closures due to heat (12-5 p.m.).
