This vacation offers the best of Athens plus a week-long cruise to Turkey and the Greek Isles. A morning sightseeing tour with a Local Guide features Athens’ famous landmarks and a visit to the Acropolis. In the late afternoon, board your cruise ship to set sail in the beautiful Aegean Sea. Stop in Istanbul, Turkey, the fascinating gateway between Asia and Europe, as well as in Mykonos, Patmos, Kusadasi, Rhodes, Heraklion, and Santorini, the “Black Pearl of the Aegean” (weather permitting), before returning to Athens.
