On Board Activities


With Louis Cruises, we want to ensure that our guest's time is as full of activity or as relaxing as they want it to be while onboard the ship.
The service provided by our highly trained personnel is both attentive and unobtrusive and always with a smile.
Dining is a feast of the senses, whether it is enjoying a sumptuous buffet by the pool, a delectable late night snack or a lavish dinner in the dining room, we wish you Bon Appetite!
During the day, when not exploring some of the most exciting and exotic ports in the Eastern Mediterranean, our activities schedule ensures that guests can choose from a whole range of things to do from dance lessons to walkathons for the active or quizzes to a visit to the library for the not so active.
By night our ships come alive with dance bands, show time with international singers and dancers, and for the night owls, our DJ's play the biggest hits from around the world into the small hours of tomorrow.

Fitness

In order to ensure that our guests are able to keep up their well being regimes while on a MC Cruises voyage, a key feature of both the Vision Star and the Athena is a small, well equipped fitness center.
Also on both vessels, a series of fun keep fit activities will be hosted by cruise staff and entertainers including walkathons, dance classes, ping pong and aqua gym all to help offset the great temptations of the dining room and buffet.

Spa & Beauty Salon

Those hours at sea are the ideal time to enjoy a little indulgence, and on your MC Cruises ship, we have just the place for that! The staff of the Spa & Beauty Salon onboard are a group of highly trained therapists who specialize in the art of pampering. Using massage techniques from all over the globe plus aromatherapy, thalasso therapy and sauna treatments they can relax or revitalize you. Alternatively they can create a top to toe new you with hair cut, color, styling and treatments, facials, body massage, luxury spa manicure & pedicure and waxing.

Day Time Activities

From the moment you ascend the gangway for your MC Cruises voyage, we plan to help you make the most of your time!
Our Daily Program, delivered to all cabins each evening will keep everyone updated of the times for all activities, excursions and meal service for the next day.
With visits to two exciting ports of call most days of your cruise, our carefully selected shore excursions enable all guests to enjoy the highlights of these wonderful and significant destinations.
Whenever guests have time on board, there are plenty of fun and educational activities to participate in. From quizzes to dance lessons and competitions to classical concerts, wine tasting, sports tournaments, language lessons, napkin folding and up close magic demonstrations - there is always plenty to do.
Ships services are also operating during the day when the ship is at sea, visit the duty free shop or indulge a little at the beauty salon, enjoy a quiet cocktail at one of the ships’ bars or call at reception desk to pick up some stamps for your postcards.
For those who want to “work” on their tan, extensive deck space on both the Vision Star (one swimming pool and two hot tubs) and Athena ensures that there is more than enough room for all our sun worshippers.
For our family groups, supervised children’s activities are also scheduled in the daily activities of most MC Cruises voyages. Such events will include dance lessons, movies, games, quizzes and parties. It is to be noted that there is no babysitting service available on MC Cruises ships.

Dining

Kali Orexi!... Bon Appetit!
Dining has always been a festive experience for the Greeks.
On board the ships our team of chefs ensure that every day brings new and unforgettable culinary delights from around the globe.
There are guests from up to one hundred nationalities on board during any one season and we have tried to devise menus which appeal to the tastes of both adventurous and less adventurous palates.
The sommelier is on hand to assist your selections from our wine list featuring Greek, French and Italian vintages.
Our attentive and highly trained dining room staff serve you the finest specialties of international and Greek cuisine. They will soon learn your preferences in order to make recommendations from the daily menu.

Incentives & Conferences

What better way to reward top achievers than a Hellenic Cruises holiday?
Three, four or seven days to visit the most significant ports in the Eastern Mediterranean both historically and culturally, and with meeting room facilities on board both ships that enable conferences when the ship is at sea.
Our Guest Assistance personnel are standing by with suggestions for private parties, custom-made gifts and exclusive shore excursions at ports of call that can be planned in order to create a unique trip that is the memory of a lifetime.

Night Time Activities

Most days of your voyage include visits to two exciting ports of call, so nightfall is the time when you can start to unwind. Enjoy your favorite cocktail and a balmy Mediterranean sunset as the perfect start to your evening.
Suggested dress code for each evening is indicated on the daily program and we request that it be in effect from 6.00pm. Country club casual is a good guideline as after all, we want you to feel at home.
Dinner is usually served in two sittings catering to the preferences of our guests, with menus of finely prepared international dishes. Guests can choose from a diverse selection of leading wines to accompany their meal. Dining rooms are intimate and tables are small so that fellow diners become fast friends.
Following dinner it’s show time, with a full cast of musicians, dancers and singers, our entertainment team do it all - the best known and most loved songs from around the world and from Country to Broadway and back, plus specialty acts that will delight every audience.
Night time on board means many of the ship services are open for business – the duty free shop full of bargains that can’t be missed, the photo shop with the days shots from shore excursions and onboard are on display and lady luck is waiting at the casino.
After the show our dance band plays on for the swingers and the DJ starts spinning hits at the disco – the big question is what to enjoy first!
