21-Day Mediterranean Mosaic: Turkey, Greece & Croatia

Aug 21, 2027 – Sep 11, 202721 nightsIstanbul to Dubrovnik

1 / 24

Canakkale

Turkey

Day
2
Date
Aug 22, 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.

Istanbul

Turkey

Day
1
Date
Aug 21, 2027
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.

Volos

Greece

Day
3
Date
Aug 23, 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
5
Date
Aug 25, 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
6
Date
Aug 26, 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
7
Date
Aug 27, 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.

Piraeus (Athens)

Greece

Day
8
Date
Aug 28, 2027
Arrive
7:00 AM
Depart
5:00 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
9
Date
Aug 29, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 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.

Itea (Delphi)

Greece

Day
11
Date
Aug 31, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
5:00 PM

Colorful fishing boats line the busy little port of Marina Grande, entry to the famous isle of Capri in Italy's Bay of Naples. Inhabited since the Stone Age and settled by the Greeks in the 8 th century BC, Capri was the favorite retreat of Roman emperors Augustus and Tiberius, who built numerous residences there.

Corfu

Greece

Day
12
Date
Sep 1, 2027

6:00 PM

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

Brindisi (Lecce)

Italy

Day
13
Date
Sep 2, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM
Depart
6:00 PM

Set on a peninsula between two arms of the Adriatic Sea, Brindisi was an important port of the Roman Empire, and later for the East India Company. In the 2nd century BC the Appian Way was built, linking the port to Rome, and a column near the harbor marks the end of that famous route.

Kotor

Montenegro

Day
14
Date
Sep 3, 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.

Dubrovnik

Date
Sep 6, 2027
Arrive
8:00 AM

Arrive
8:00 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.

Zadar

Croatia

Day
19
Date
Sep 8, 2027
Arrive
8:00 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.
