22-Day Mediterranean Mosaic: Greek Isles, Ephesus & Croatia

May 22, 2027 – Jun 13, 202722 nightsAthens (Piraeus) to Fusina (Venice)

1 / 24

Monemvasia

Greece

Day
2
Date
May 23, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

Although connected to the mainland by a causeway, the great hump of Monemvasia looming from the sea is an island. The medieval city seems to tumble down the sheer rock to the sea, crowned by the Byzantine church of Ayia Sophia nearly 900 feet above. In the Middle Ages, the famous Malmsey wine was made here.

Piraeus (Athens)

Greece

Day
1
Date
May 22, 2027
Depart
10:00 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.

Agios Nikolaos, Crete

Greece

Day
3
Date
May 24, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

This charming village of white houses climbing up the slopes is beautifully situated on the sparkling Gulf of Mirabello. The attractive Venetian harbor is surrounded by restaurants, outdoor cafes and clusters of shops selling everything from necessities to souvenirs.

Mykonos

Greece

Day
4
Date
May 25, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 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.

Kusadasi (Ephesus)

Turkey

Day
5
Date
May 26, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
11:00 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.

Cesme

Turkey

Day
6
Date
May 27, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

A popular holiday and resort destination, Cesme is located on a promontory on the tip of a peninsula that carries the same name. The town itself is dominated by the medieval Cesme Castle, while the back streets invite a casual stroll with their old Ottoman and Greek houses that charm passers-by.

Istanbul

Turkey

Day
8
Date
May 29, 2027
Arrive
7:00 AM
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.

Canakkale

Turkey

Day
9
Date
May 30, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
5:00 PM

The Turkish city of Canakkale lies along both sides of the Dardanelles strait that links the landlocked Sea of Marmara to the Aegean. Like Istanbul on the Bosphorus - which connects the Marmara to the Black Sea - Canakkale straddles Europe and Asia while also stretching across the history of Western civilization.

Volos

Greece

Day
10
Date
May 31, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

The span of highrise buildings that line the waterfront at Volos speak to modern Greece, rather than the ancient land. Indeed Volos is a very Greek city, a busy port and not high on the list of places for a traveler to visit.

Patmos

Greece

Day
12
Date
Jun 2, 2027
Arrive
7:00 AM
Depart
10:00 PM

Deserted for centuries because of constant raids by pirates and the Turks, this tiny arid island was first settled in 1088 when the Emperor of Constantinople made it a gift to the monk Christodoulos Latrnos so that he could establish a monastery in honor of St. John the Divine on the site.

Rhodes

Greece

Day
13
Date
Jun 3, 2027
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.

Santorini

Greece

Day
14
Date
Jun 4, 2027
Arrive
7:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

"Thira, the Wild Island" and "Kalliste, the Fairest One" - all terms of endearment for this seductive, volcanic Greek island in the Sea of Crete.

Nafplion

Greece

Day
16
Date
Jun 6, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
5:00 PM

Held to be one of the loveliest small towns in all the islands, Nafplion has a tradition and culture all its own. The sheltered location, below a rocky headland crowned by a Venetian fortress is perhaps unrivaled in Greece.

Kotor

Montenegro

Day
18
Date
Jun 8, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 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.

Korcula

Croatia

Day
19
Date
Jun 9, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

The early Greeks named this island Korkyra Melaina, or "Dark Korcula"-- because of its dense forests it loomed black on the horizon against the azure Adriatic. It is the most populous of the Dalmatian isles off the coast near Dubrovnik.

Hvar

Croatia

Day
20
Date
Jun 10, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

Known as the Queen of the Dalmatian Islands, Hvar is an intriguing medieval town on an island with the same name, and is where celebrities and royalty come to indulge in summer pleasures. It's considered the sunniest place in Croatia, making it ideal for relaxing days on stunning beaches surrounded by lush forest.
