Guest Helen Heinel-Szesch sent us a post about her wonderful Greek Isles cruise aboard Star Clipper.

In August 2008 my husband and I spent another memorable week on board the Star Clipper, this time sailing around the Greek Northern Cyclade Islands.

Star Clipper anchored at Sifnos, Greece.

Again, it was the wonderful atmosphere on board, which made the holiday extra special. It was also especially nice to see some of the crew, who had been on board the year before in the Caribbean – in particular our absolutely favourite barman Igor!

I am the romantic type so it wasn’t really surprising to me that I got goose pimples each evening when the sails went up to the sound of Vangelis 1492!

The Star Clipper presented us with more than enough opportunities to “play” with our cameras and we really got some great shots. And, we couldn’t forget that we were on a sailing ship as, on one particularly breezy day, the swimming pool made its way down the stairs to the tropical bar.

I can’t wait until the next opportunity to be on board again.
