Local Trip Experience Leaders and Regional Office Expertise: Explore with a local Trip Experience Leader, who is fluent in English and trained by O.A.T. on the skills needed to bring travelers off the beaten path to meet with locals who share their cultures and traditions with us. Plus, follow an itinerary that’s been carefully crafted by O.A.T.’s Athens office, opened in 2016.
O.A.T. Exclusives: Cruise for 7 nights aboard our privately owned, 50-passenger M/V Athena or M/V Arethusa for an intimate cruising experience—complete with a family-like atmosphere onboard and a dedicated crew.

Plus, dock in small, less-touristed ports like Patmos, where we’ll meet local people where they live and work—including local cafés and other small businesses.
People-to-People Experiences: Enjoy our A Day in the Life experience that offers a deeper glimpse into rural life in Rhodes at a family-run ostrich farm. Plus, split into smaller groups to enjoy an intimate Home-Hosted Lunch with local families in Bodrum, where you'll learn about what life is like here.
Join the growing number of solo travelers reserved on upcoming departures of this adventure—traveling independently or sharing a room with a mother, daughter, sister, or friend.
Safety & Security: You'll have the guidance and support of your expert local Trip Experience Leader throughout your entire trip—as well as our regional office in Athens, which is available and ready to help you and your group 24/7.
Travel Solo, But Never Alone: Since you will be joined by others traveling independently in your group, it’s easier to forge special bonds as you experience unforgettable moments together during your adventure. Plus, your Trip Experience Leader can help connect you with fellow travelers who share your common interests.
FREE or low-cost Single Supplements: Free or low-cost Single Supplements are offered on all O.A.T. adventures and are FREE on pre- or post-trip extensions—a savings of $900-$1,100 per person compared to other travel companies. {TYPE=DatesAndPriceAnchor|OCCUPANCY=Single|AUTOMATION=single-space-supplement-dnplink|TEXT=See available single space here »}
