Revered & Romantic Shores: Istanbul to Rome

Nov 12, 2026 – Dec 2, 202620 nightsIstanbul to Rome (Civitavecchia)

1 / 24

Bozcaada (Troy)

Turkey

Day: 2
Date: Nov 13, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM
Depart: 7:00 PM

Delight in this breezy Aegean gem, a beach-blessed island also known for producing some of Turkey’s best wines. You’ll notice the ambiance gracefully blends Greek and Turkish sensibilities, evident in the clusters of whitewashed buildings from which the occasional minaret bursts forth.

Istanbul

Turkey

Day: 1
Date: Nov 12, 2026
Depart: 5:00 PM

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: 3
Date: Nov 14, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM
Depart: 7:00 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.

Athens (Piraeus)

Greece

Day: 4
Date: Nov 15, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM
Depart: 7:00 PM

Piraeus has been the port for Athens since 482 BC. The busy harbor is filled with ferries and cruise ships making their way to the Greek Islands and other Mediterranean cities. The busy metropolis of Athens and its treasure trove of antiquities lie just a few miles from the port.

Gythion (Sparta)

Greece

Day: 5
Date: Nov 16, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM
Depart: 7:00 PM

Gythion, the small port town for Sparta, edges its way up the hillside, which surrounds the harbor. According to Homer, Paris and Helen spent their first night together here, on a tiny islet in the bay.

Katakolon (for Olympia)

Greece

Day: 6
Date: Nov 17, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM
Depart: 7:00 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.

Igoumenitsa

Greece

Day: 7
Date: Nov 18, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM
Depart: 5:00 PM

An undiscovered gem on the northwest coast of Greece, Igoumenitsa stands on the site of a settlement dating to the 4th century BC, and several ancient sites are located nearby.

Kotor

Montenegro

Day: 8
Date: Nov 19, 2026
Arrive: 8:00 AM
Depart: 7:00 PM

Kotor is a town of medieval architecture and historic monuments, influenced by its time under the rule of the Republic of Venice between 1420 and 1797. Set to a backdrop of majestic mountains, the scenery is second to none, so be sure to keep your camera handy.

Dubrovnik

Croatia

Day: 9
Date: Nov 20, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM
Depart: 4:00 PM

Founded in the 7th century, Dubrovnik rose to greatness as a merchant state, independent republic and cultural crossroads. The traffic-free Old Town has been called a Croatian Athens.

Zadar

Croatia

Day: 10
Date: Nov 21, 2026
Arrive: 9:00 AM
Depart: 6:00 PM

It may sound like the name of some fantastic distant land or even a planet, but the only things out of this world about Zadar are its seaside views, delicious Croatian-Mediterranean cuisine and wines and the warm welcome when you arrive in this history-steeped Croatian town.

Venice (Ravenna)

Italy

Day: 11
Date: Nov 22, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM
Depart: 5:00 PM

Along the northeast coast of Italy is where you’ll discover the historic town of Ravenna. Once a thriving seaport in ancient times (it now lies five miles inland), Ravenna was also the westernmost pillar of the Byzantine Empire. Just as everyone who visits, you too will marvel at the exquisite Byzantine mosaics.

Koper

Slovenia

Day: 12
Date: Nov 23, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM
Depart: 7:00 PM

Located on the tip of Istria, Slovenia's main port was an island until the 19th century, but local history goes back much further.

Rijeka

Croatia

Day: 13
Date: Nov 24, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM
Depart: 6:00 PM

Tucked into Kvarner Bay off the Dalmatian Coast of the Adriatic, Rijeka is Croatia's premier seaport and third largest city. It is a mix of modern structures and grand old buildings from the heyday of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Croatia

Day: 14
Date: Nov 25, 2026
Arrive: 7:00 AM

A scant few miles off the Albanian coast lies the island of Corfu, one of the most richly endowed of all the Greek Isles.

Crotone

Italy

Day: 17
Date: Nov 28, 2026

Depart: 5:00 PM

Valletta

Malta
