Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
5:00 PM

Located on Sicily's east coast, just north of the active volcano Mt. Etna, Taormina has long drawn visitors with its stunning coastal scenery, thanks to its vantage point 204 meters (669 feet) above the Ionian Sea. Literary giants like Goethe and D.H.

Greece

Day

Rhodes

Greece

Day
9
Date
May 12, 2028
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

Best known of the Dodecanese Islands, Rhodes is a fascinating architectural patchwork of her past. Here the legacy of the ancient Greeks mingles with that of besieging Turks, crusading knights, and occupying Italians.

Kusadasi (Ephesus)

Turkey

Day
10
Date
May 13, 2028
Arrive
7:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

Kusadasi in Turkey is the gateway to one of the most legendary cities of the ancient world: Ephesus. St. Paul preached in its Great Theater, while the facade of the Celsus Library survives as a testament to the city's role as a center of learning and culture.

Greece

Day
11
Date
May 14, 2028
Arrive
7:00 AM
Depart
3:00 PM

Istanbul

Turkey

Day
14
Date
May 17, 2028
Arrive
7:00 AM

Arriving in Istanbul, Turkey on board a ship is an unforgettable experience. The Bosphorus, dividing Europe and Asia, welcomes passengers with ocean breezes, soaring seagulls and-if you're lucky-playful dolphins that frolic en route to the port. On deck is where the views of Istanbul's best attractions await.

Mykonos

Greece

Day
16
Date
May 19, 2028
Arrive
12:00 PM
Depart
10:00 PM

The quintessential Greek island of Mykonos is marked by whitewashed houses, domed churches, imposing windmills, and a labyrinth of winding streets designed to disorient pirates. Everywhere there is a dash of bright, bold blue - doors, shutters and window frames, sea and sky.

Katakolon (Olympia)

Greece

Day
18
Date
May 21, 2028
Arrive
10:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

The port of Katakolon is the gateway to the Peloponnese, one of Greece's most intriguing and least well-known areas. Beyond the region's famous site of ancient Olympia-one of the most treasured remnants of the classical world-the Peloponnese gets little of the glory given the Greek islands and Athens.

Sarande

Albania

Day
19
Date
May 22, 2028
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
3:00 PM

This important port on Southern Albania curls around a superb natural harbor, dominated by the hilltop 16th century Lekuresi Castle with distinctive round towers. In the town center are the ruins of a 5th century synagogue, later a Christian basilica, with remnant mosaic floors.
