Greek Island & Turkey Cruise
Ports of Call & Cruising Highlights
Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy
As Rome’s seaport, Civitavecchia is the gateway for excursions to the “Eternal City”. Here the ancient capital of the western world and the center of Christianity for nearly 2,000 years spread out before you in all its glory. Visit the Coliseum and Roman Forum, the Vatican and St. Peter’s Basilica, or the fashionable boutiques around the Spanish Steps. The entire city is a living museum. This day you will discover some of the most famous churches, monuments and fountains in the entire world.
Santorini, Greek Islands – This Island is perhaps the most breathtaking of all the Greek Islands and its beauty legendary. There is a magic energy here with its whitewashed houses clinging to cliffs and hillsides set against the deep blue waters of the Aegean Sea. The excavations at Akrotiri had confirmed that human activity on the island continued until the eruption of the volcano around 1500 B.C. which entirely buried the island. At this point, all traces of human activity vanished until the end of the 13th century B.C. On the site of Akrotiri you’ll gain insight into Minoan life from 3,600 years ago when the town was buried under volcanic ash. There are many experts that believe that Santorini was the home of the fabled lost continent of Atlantis.
Istanbul, Turkey – Byzantium, Constantinople, Istanbul… You begin your cruise adventure in the city that has worn many names over the centuries, and its rich mix of cultures and history is present everywhere. In Justinian’s Hagia Sophia, stand where Holy Emperors were crowned. See the treasures of the Ottomans at the Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace, where a maze of 500 rooms contains a king’s ransom in jewels. Throughout the city are the sounds of the evening call to prayer, the smell of exotic spices, and the sight of minarets against the sky.
Kusadasi (Ephesus), Turkey
Kusadasi is your gateway to Ephesus, a city created by the Ionians in the 11th century B.C. and later expanded by the Romans. Now considered one of the grandest reconstructed sites in the ancient world, and some of the best preserved ruins, the region also hosted the likes of Cleopatra, Mark Anthony, the Virgin Mary and John the Apostle. Travel through the Magnesia Gate, the main entrance to the ancient city, and continue along marble streets grooved by chariot wheels. Gaze upon beautiful temples, porticoes, fountains and frescoes. Discover the three-story Library of Celsus, the Temple of Hadrian, the Odeum, the Fountain of Trajan and the Great Theater.
Athens, Greece
Piraeus is the main port of Athens, the biggest in Greece, and one of the most important in the Mediterranean Sea. No visit to Athens would be complete without a visit to the Acropolis. There you'll find the Parthenon, the largest building in the Acropolis and one of the world's most awe-inspiring sights. It was built as a temple to Athena and is still a remarkable structure today. Visit the Plaka, the old neighborhood of Athens and discover the narrow streets and alleys, single-story houses, neoclassical villas, taverns and many tourist shops or explore the National Archaeological Museum, home to a formidable collection of the world's antiquities
Mykonos, Greece – This island is one of Europe’s favorite playgrounds. It is the classic Greek Isle, with hundreds of whitewashed churches, thatched windmills catching the brisk breeze, and a busy harbor bobbing with fishing boats and luxury yachts. Visit neighboring Delos, which was the sacred isle and the religious center of the Aegean, with its impressive temples and ruins. Mykonos boasts of its incredible beaches, active nightlife, and great shopping.
Naples / Capri, Italy and the Amalfi Coast
Splendid scenery grace the surrounding areas of Naples. Take a journey back into time by a visit to the ruins of Pompeii, which offered the world its first glimpse into ancient Roman life. The eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. left us with some of the best preserved ruins in the world. Magnificent beauty awaits you on the magical island of Capri or the legendary drive along the Amalfi Coast.
