aboard the M.S. LE BOREAL
Relive the mythical tales of Homer and the glories of ancient heroes and gods on this enlightening voyage through the Greek Isles and along Turkey’s enchanting coast aboard the deluxe M.S. LE BOREAL. Journey from the bustling bazaars and sparkling mosques of Istanbul across the glistening waters of the Aegean to Athens. Along Turkey’s history-rich coast, stroll along the marble-paved boulevards of Ephesus and sail in the wake of Achilles and Agamemnon to legendary Troy. Explore Greece’s most fabled islands, including Santorini, renowned for its dramatic black cliffs, and Delos, mythical birthplace of Olympian deities. Learn how monks on the sacred isle of Pátmos preserve spiritual traditions traced directly to St. John, walk in the footsteps of crusading knights through medieval Rhodes and saunter under the warm gaze of Helios along the golden shores of Mykonos. A program of attractively priced shore excursions will be available, as well as opportunities to extend your journey with a two-night Pre-Program Option in Istanbul and/or a two-night Post-Program Option in Athens.
