Itinerary

With four days to explore glorious Istanbul and another eight to discover what lies beyond the Golden Horn, you don’t need an oracle to tell you this is one auspicious voyage. Everywhere you look in Istanbul you’ll find some fascinating remnant of days gone by – places where chariots raced, sultans ruled, and architects’ greatest aspirations were realized. After you’ve oohed and aahed over the world-renowned mosques, palaces, and bazaars, board your yacht to see more jewels of the Aegean. Islands glowing with whitewashed houses and blue-domed churches; origin stories of gods, oracles, and Atlantis; a canal so narrow you’ll only share it with small mail boats, private yachts, and paddleboarders. Plus, enjoy a complimentary Destination Discovery Event – dinner and a concert in the moonlight in ancient Ephesus. What’s Included •Three nights’ accommodation at Pera Palace Hotel in a Deluxe Golden Horn Room Breakfast at the hotel, lunch at Hamdi Restaurant •All transfers to and from the included sites •Two full days and one half day sightseeing in a luxury air conditioned vehicle with a professional driver and English speaking tour guide. •2-hour Bosphorus cruise on a private motor boat •Entrance fees to Byzantine Hippodrome, Topkapi Palace, the Harem Section, Underground Cistern, Suleymaniye Mosque, Dolmabahce Palace, Ayasofya, and Rustem Pasa Mosque •8-day cruise between Athens and Istanbul Please note: Bring your hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, insect repellent, and comfortable walking shoes.
