This Royal Signature Excursion℠ delivers a hand-picked small group adventure that wows with its intimate tour size, regional culinary flavors, expert local guides and renowned service. Explore the ruins of Delos, one of Greece's most significant mythological, historical, and archaeological sites, before engaging in a hands-on mosaic art class inspired by your discoveries on this ancient island. A local ferry ride brings you to the tiny island of Delos, where you embark on a guided exploration of its expansive excavations. Once a bustling commercial center, Delos is also revered as the mythological birthplace of the twin gods Apollo and Artemis. As you walk through this now uninhabited open-air museum, you encounter monumental antiquities from the Archaic, Classical and Hellenistic periods. Marvel at the dry Sacred Lake, the seven marble lions guarding Sacred Way and the crumbling Doric temples. Enter the Great Temple of Apollo, the largest on the island, and take in the view from the Terrace of the Foreign Gods. Admire the intricate mosaic decorations in Hellenistic mansions and the House of Dionysus, the god of wine, before returning to Mykonos to create your own unique masterpiece. Participate in a workshop led by a local artisan, centered on the ancient art of mosaic. Learn the tricks of the trade as you design your own mosaic using small pieces of cut stone before enjoying a local lunch.
