Piraeus/Athens, Port Said, Sharm El Sheik-

Piraeus port is the gateway to Athens center. Don't miss the Parthenon, the temple to Athena which looms over Athens from its perch atop the Acropolis, an eternal icon of art and civilization. Completed in 438 B.C., the temple still astounds as the flowering of Greek art and architecture. When you come down off the hill, don't miss a visit to the Ancient Agora, Syntagma Square, the Acropolis Museum and the city's historic centre, around Plaka. Ideally, sit and relax at a cafe on the foot of the hill, sample some Greek souvlaki or a frappe, take a glance back up the hill from time to time and give the goddess her due.

Port Said is a port on the Egyptian Mediterranean coast. The city was founded in 1859 and has since grown tremendously with fortified influence from the French, the English and locals

A walk in Corniche will reveal to you the maritime dominance and power of the city. While the 19th century consulates and mansions that adorn the entrance to the mighty Suez Canal will leave you with no choice but to stop and admire the noise, activity and sounds around you. At the same time, the historic centre invites you to the roar of local shops and vendors in the open-air bazaar where modern boutiques spring up next to the old shops. The National Military Museum gives an in-depth picture of the canal's history as the sandy beaches adorned with umbrellas and sunbeds seem to be worlds away from the relentless commercial movement in the sea.
Port Said is constantly evolving but its heart remains faithful to its naval present and past.
