      The day spent exploring ancient ruins and cruising through turquoise waters was a highlight of my trip. I especially loved gliding past the sunken city and imagining its storied past while enjoying a delicious lunch onboard. One small drawback was the large group size, which occasionally made it hard to hear the guide, but the stunning scenery made up for it.
