Individual pilgrimage sea cruises with the the shrines of Mount Athos delivered on board of your yacht. The cruise can start both from Ouranoupoli (Athos Peninsula), and the port of Ormos Panagias (Sithonia Peninsula). The individual tour along the shores of Mount Athos implies the absence of time restrictions when planning the route.
During the cruise you can see the Holy Mountain's monasteries and sketes located on the cliffs, while travelling along the Athos peninsula by private ship. The trip takes place on a motor yacht. All the Athos coastline of 120 miles is open for the pilgrimage, so the boat must be fast and comfortable. The maximum number of passengers is 8-10 people.
What makes this pilgrimage tour the most attractive is the possibility of bringing the shrines of Athos monasteries on board by monks. In addition, you can confess and talk to the monks in private.
