Destination
Mediterranean - Eastern
There are two very distinct regions of the Mediterranean - the eastern and the western. The eastern region incorporates a range of exciting and slightly less frequented cruising destinations including Greece, Turkey, Egypt and the Adriatic coastline. Within this region you will find enchanting cultures, welcoming people and delicious cuising as well as a myriad of ancient artefacts and landmarks which offer a window in time to a civilisation long lost.
Ports of Call
Istanbul, Turkey
City Istanbul

Once called Constantinople, the former capital of the Byzantine Empire is the only city in the world to straddle two continents: Europe and Asia. This is the Golden Horn, the door between East and West, and your first vision of its domes and minarets is unforgetable. Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and Sultan treasures in Topkapi Palace await - as does the Grand Bazaar, laden with carpets, beaten brass and spices from afar.

Corfu, Greece
City Corfu

Though once ruled by Venetian doges, Turkish sultans and French invaders, today's Corfiot citizen is as Greek as they come. Marvel at the 17th-century icons in St. George's Church, the medieval Palace of Phrourio or the 19th-century Achilleion Palace. The greenest of the Greek Isles, Corfu also boasts thriving vineyards and olive orchards among its rugged mountains.

Bari, Italy
City Bari

Trieste, Italy
City Trieste

Katakolon (Olympia), Greece
City Katakolon

Katakolon is your gateway to Olympia, where the ancient Greeks flocked every four years for more than a millennium to celebrate the sacred games dedicated to Zeus. Visit the ruins of the Sanctuary, with its athletic quadrangles, stadium-temples and treasuries; then browse in the modern Archaeological Museum, a treasure house of Archaic, Classical and Roman sculptures, including the famous Niki "Winged Victory."

Athens Piraeus
City Piraeus

Athens Piraeus port is 11km from central Athens and takes 11-15 minutes to drive subject to traffic

Kusadasi (Ephesus), Turkey
City Kusadasi

This charming, picturesque resort where Antony and Cleopatra used to vacation is best known as the port for the ancients ruins of Ephesus - one of the world's most wondrous archaeological sites. Explorations should include such masterpieces as the Great Amphitheatre, where St. Paul addressed the Ephesians, the Library of Celsus, and the temples of Athena and Apollo - all connected by marble streets rutted by the wheels of countless chariots.
