Greece & Turkey: Athens, Greek Islands Cruise & Istanbul
15 days | 18 days with Cappadocia & Istanbul extension
Get a taste of East and West by way of two cultural powerhouses.
The Athenians and the Ottomans. The Spartans and the Seljuks. Over the centuries, Greece and Turkey have indelibly influenced world history and culture. This 15-day tour introduces you to their biggest hits and hidden highlights—from Athens to Istanbul over the Aegean’s blue waves. Cruise from the Greek capital to the Turkish coast via the islands of Mykonos, Santorini, and Rhodes. Spend some time in beautifully preserved Ephesus before finishing with the bookends of the Ottoman Empire: its first and final capitals of Bursa and Istanbul. Want to add more landscapes to all that art and architecture? Cover Cappadocia on this trip’s extension.
