Cyprus is an island in the Eastern Mediterranean, and as such has a long history of boats and seafaring. Its ideal close proximity to the Middle East gives you a wonderful opportunity to visit and explore the wonders of Egypt, Israel, the Greek Islands, Syria or Lebanon.
Louis Cruise Lines offer modern, well run vessels, with friendly English speaking crew members and a high standard of both cuisine and service. Meals are included in the ticket price and you may select from a varied Continental and English menu and enjoy a superb evenings live entertainment watching the highly polished show which is also included as a part of your cruise.
Sunshine, moonlit water and cruise ships conjure up images of romance, mystery, fun and adventure. Cyplon Holidays is delighted to offer you the opportunity to experience just that, with our 7 night cruise aboard Louis Cruise Line’s ‘Sapphire’. Departing from Limassol in Cyprus, the cruise takes in the fabulously historic Greek islands of Rhodes, Patmos, Mykonos and Santorini, sailing on to Alexandria in Egypt for an opportunity to visit the pyramids and other wonders of Ancient Egypt before the homeward voyage back to Cyprus.
This cruise is not just about the ports of call and the excursion opportunities along the way, although these are probably quite enough to tempt you. To see exotic places in comfort, which if you were to travel to independently would take time and great expense, is the icing on the cake whilst on holiday, the opportunity to meet people and draw upon the experiences of your travels at a later date is as valuable a part of your holiday as the fun you have at the time. The Sapphire is a cosy cruise ship, well appointed and comfortable, and offers as much, if not more entertainment as a good resort hotel . An excellent variety of activities for all the family are offered, from morning aerobics to evening gala dinners with cabaret and dancing. Those just wishing to relax during their holiday and soak up the sun will enjoy the lounge decks and swimming pool.
All main meals, elevenses, afternoon tea, themed midnight buffets, lunch boxes for your onshore excursions, cabaret and entertainment are included in the ticket price which surely adds up to great value! Excursions themselves are optional extras, giving you the choice of relaxing on board, doing your own exploring or joining in some or all of the guided tours.
A must see for those who have not yet experienced it is in our opinion a day visiting the pyramids, the Sphinx and the Cairo museum in Egypt. If you have the opportunity to have lunch on the Nile whilst belly dancers entertain, you may travel back in time to the days of the Pharaohs and leave the bustle of modern life behind for a while at least.
