Highlights of this cruise:
Dikili
A small and peaceful port on the shores of the Aegean, Dikili has retained its picturesque charm. From here we head out to explore Pergamum, one of Turkey's finest archaeological sites, not just because of the many and varied ruins but also for its splendid hilltop location. At one time a serious rival to Alexandria and Rome, Pergamum offers visitors the rich heritage of its architecture in an intimate setting.
Kusadasi
Kusadasi was once a small fishing village and today is one of Turkey's most famous seaside resorts. Despite a history dating back 3000 to years BC, Kusadasi itself has no ruins. Yet because of itsposition is an ideal jumping off point for the archaeological site of Ephesus which houses one of the seven wonders of the world, the temple of Artemis.
Patmos
known as the "Jerusalem of the Aegean", Patmos is a holy island for Christians and is where Saint John drafted the Apocalypse. An impressive silhouette of the crenellated walls of an 11th century monastery stands out against the hills in the centre of an island which has retained its traditional architecture.
Rhodes
Magnificent sites and monuments make this a magical island. Blessed with a lovely mild climate, Rhodes invites you to explore its paths, immaculate tiny villages and sumptuous medieval city, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Rhodes also owes much of its charm and character to the knights of St John who ruled the island from 1310 to 1522 and built the impressive city walls and picturesque gates.
Santorini
First impressions on arriving at this southern island in the Cyclades are that it is mysterious and grandiose. A natural port surrounded by cliffs, the ancient site of Santorini is circular in shape corresponding to the collapsed centre of the volcano which erupted here, creating a marine crater that never fails to astonish visitors.
Delos
Birthplace of the twins Artemis and Apollo, Delos is one of the most important mythological, historical and archaeological sites in Greece. Legend has it that because the island was Apollo's birthplace it became an important sanctuary visited by pilgrims.
Mykonos
Queen of the Cyclades with its white mills, labyrinth of whitewashed alleyways and quaint little port where boats bob lazily at the foot of the terraces, Mykonos never fails to inspire. One of the most romantic spots is the colourful "Little Venice" district where the houses are built right on the sea giving it a special ambiance. Let yourself be tempted by the numerous taverns which line its seafront opposite the old port.
