Highlights Of This Tour

The wonders of Turkey don't end at the water's edge. The shoreline is a land of sheer cliffs framing crystal-clear coves, wetlands teeming with aquatic life, deep green forests contrasting with the subtly shifting milky greens and vivid blue hues of the magical Mediterranean... It was here, in this spectacular paradise, that successive civilizations rose and fell. It was here, in this hauntingly beautiful, life-giving land that Man flourished, devoting himself to Art, Philosophy, Medicine, Music, Architecture... There's no better way to explore this part of Turkey than to cruise along the rugged coastline by boat.

In this program, we give you the opportunity to sample the best of sea and land, combining overnight stays in fine hotels with three nights at sea - and we also keep the concerns of travelers with time and budget limitations in mind, providing you superior value for money. We take overland excursions to some of the most striking archeological sites in the world and also organize boat excursions to Simena, an ancient submerged city, and the Lycian rock tombs of Caunos.

As always, we provide air-conditioned, comfortable transport and professional drivers, an experienced crew and captain, accommodations in top hotels, knowledgeable, friendly guides and an itinerary that helps you get the most out of your stay in Turkey. Relax, marvel at the glories of the Mediterranean. And leave the rest to us.
