European cruise line organizes own gay cruise
Variety Cruises, a cruise line based in Athens, Greece, has announced a gay cruise from August 20-27, 2010. The

sailing will include Greece and the Greek islands–Mykonos, Santorini and other islands on their small sailing ship, the Panorama. Cruise-only rates start at $2,290 per person per week–certainly hefty compared to the fares RSVP and Atlantis are offering, but it’s an apples to oranges comparison when you consider the difference in ship style. But it also seems very steep considering the price only includes some of your meals.
I personally don’t know how Variety will do with the concept–if any of you have sailed them on a mainstream itinerary, I’d love to hear about it.
Special activities include lengthy swim stops in selected beaches such as in Mykonos, DJ-spun music, evenings off-board in specific ports of call, and “special events,” not sure what that means.

Coming to this post have got me a great idea of sponsoring a free trip to this cruise ship for my gay couple friends who are soon getting married.
