exploring the medieval architecture of
the cobblestoned Street of Knights, the
15th-century Hospital of the Knights of
St. John, which now houses The
Archeological Museum of Rhodes and
the 14th-century colossal Palace of the
Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes.

Heraklion

The walled city of Heraklion on the
north coast of Greece's largest island,
Crete, is filled with Venetian and
Minoan history and architecture,
including the Koules Fortress, the
Venetian Loggia (now Heraklion's
town hall) and the city's main square,
Plateia Venizelou. But the real draw of
Heraklion are the ruins of the
legendary and sprawling Palace of
Knossos, home of the mythological
King Minos and the center of the
mysterious Minoan civilization (from

2600 BC to 1100 BC), which sat
undisturbed until it was unearthed in
the early-20th century.

More Stops

Many of the "Quiet Season"
itineraries also visit several Italian ports.
Possibilities include the picturesque city
of Messina or smoldering Mount Etna
on the island of Sicily, the Neapolitan
cuisine of Naples, St. Mark's Square and
the canals and gondolas of Venice and
the legendary sites of Rome.
Still other itineraries focus more on
the Adriatic, with stops in Split and
Dubrovnik, Croatia. Lucky explorers
will experience architecture going back
17 centuries, including the fourthcentury Diocletian's Palace, the stunning
bell tower at the Cathedral of St.
Domnius and wonderful examples of
pre-Romanesque churches and Gothic

chapels in the city center of Split.
There's also the 12th-century walled
city and medieval streets of Old Town
Dubrovnik, along with sites like the
Renaissance Sponza Palace, the Baroque
Dubrovnik Cathedral and Onofrio's
fountains. For the adventurous, it's fun
to get a spectacular birds-eye view of the
city and the Adriatic Sea from atop the
city walls.
The 22-day "Adriatic &
Mediterranean Sojourn," 22-day
"Iconic Mediterranean Treasures" and
the 29-day "Mediterranean's Iconic
Shores" offer a more extensive
experience, with additional Greek,
Italian and Croatian ports of call.
With varied itineraries, smaller crowds
and the experience of the leader in
small ship ocean cruising, Viking's
"Quiet Season" is a great time to
explore Europe.
