Athens to Istanbul
Get ready for an experience you won’t easily forget! Join Claudia von Kielich, Greece Tour Connoisseur, aboard Oceania Riviera as we embark on a quest for the Jewels of Greece and Wonders of Turkey. Learn her secrets in the Meze Fare cooking class in the Bon Appetite Culinary Center – the world’s only cooking school at sea! You can be part of this spectacular exploration!
Marvel at eminent attractions like the Tomb of Agamemnon and the Cyclopean Wall in Nauplion. Dock at the port of (Aghios Nikolaos -Saint Nicholas) Crete, a Greek jewel floating in a sea of melted turquoise. Is Santorini really the “Lost City of Atlantis”?
Feel like a Knight during the Crusades while visiting the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights in Rhodes. Behold the bright white buildings and active nightlife of Mykonos. View Marmaris, where Lord Nelson’s fleet sheltered en route to defeat Napoleon’s armada. In Ephesus, visit the Temple of Artemis, one of the Severn Wonders of the Ancient World. Bargain for carpets and Gold at the labyrinth of shops (4000!) in the Grand Bazaar. Be captivated by the famous Blue Mosque, built by Sultan Ahmet I (1603-1617). Don’t miss Topkapi Palace, primary residence of the Ottoman Sultans for approximately 400 years— and wouldn’t it be enthralling to see exotic belly dancing – in Constantinople, now Istanbul. Experience memories to last a lifetime!
