Die Royal Mews ist eine wichtige Zweigstelle des Lord Chamberlain's Office, welches Transporte für die Queen und Mitglieder der königlichen Familie mit Pferdekutschen und Motorwagen organisiert. Der Hofstall ist verantwortlich für die Ausbildung der Windsor Greys und Cleveland Bays – der Pferde, die die königlichen Kutschen ziehen.
Die Staatsfahrzeuge werden in den Royal Mews untergebracht und gewartet. Die Kutschen aus den Royal Mews werden jedes Jahr rund 50 Mal genutzt, um neu ernannte Minister und Botschafter zu ihrer offiziellen Residenz zum Buckingham Palace zu bringen. Seit 1843 bricht täglich ein Botschafter vom Hofstall auf, um Post zwischen dem Buckingham Palace und dem St. James's Palace auszutauschen.

Louvre Museum
The Louvre Museum is unquestionably one of the finest art galleries in the world. Home to thousands of classic and modern masterpieces, the Louvre is the jewel in the crown of French culture, a towering testament to European civilisation and history. Its quality and importance is highlighted through its popularity as the Louvre is the globes most-visited museum.
To walk through the Louvre Museum is to walk through the history of France and into the minds of kings and revolutionaries. The reigns of Louis XIII and Louis XIV saw major expansion and a linking of the palaces and halls, which make up the museum today.
The Louvre Museum contains over 35,000 pieces of artwork across numerous departments including Near Eastern Antiquities, Egyptian Antiquities, Greek, Etruscan, and Roman Antiquities, Islamic Art, Sculptures, Decorative Arts, Paintings, Prints and Drawings. Masterpieces by great artists such as Da Vinci and Delacroix are part of the permanent collection of this prestigious gallery.
Surrounding this iconic pyramid building are the Carrousel gardens. These beautiful formal gardens are among the finest in the world and the perfect setting to discuss and reflect on the wonders of the gallery itself.

Descripción
El bus sale de sus oficinas en el pueblo de Fira y le lleva al puerto de Athinios.
El barco sale del puerto viejo de Fira y se dirige hacia la isla volcánica de Nea Kameni, que se encuentra a sólo 10 minutos de la bahía de Fira. El barco permanecerá allí durante 1 hora y 15 minutos. Esto le proporcionará tiempo de sobras para subir andando hasta los cráteres activos del volcán y tomar algunas fotos – esto le llevará unos 20 minutos. Vale la pena llegar a la cima para presenciar las fumarolas del volcán y el intenso olor a azufre.
La siguiente parada es en la isla de Palaia Kameni, donde se encuentran las aguas termales. El barco ancla a pocos metros mar adentro en la pequeña bahía de Agios Nikolaos, se bajará una escalera hacia el agua y así tendrá 30 minutos para disfrutar de un baño revitalizante. Podrá nadar a una distancia de unos 30 metros de los famosos baños de barro de Palaia Kameni, los cuales se cree que tienen habilidades beneficiosas para la piel y para curar algunas enfermedades. La temperatura del agua es de 30-35 grados Celsius, pero se mezcla constantemente con agua de mar.
La isla de Thirassia será el siguiente destino de su viaje en barco, donde tendrá 2 horas de tiempo libre para nadar en las aguas cristalinas de Korfos o para degustar los platos locales en una de sus tradicionales tabernas. Usted podrá caminar o hacer un tour en burro hacia el cercano y pintoresco pueblo de Manolas que cuenta con calles estrechas - las vistas a Santorini desde allí hacen que la visita valga realmente la pena.
Durante el viaje de regreso al puerto antiguo de Fira, podrá disfrutar navegando cerca de los acantilados volcánicos de Oia y tendrá la oportunidad de capturar con su cámara un paisaje sencillamente único.
El autobús le estará esperando en el puerto de Athinios para llevarle de vuelta a la plaza central de Fira.

Ropa ligera de verano (shorts / camisetas)
