PICTURESQUE ISLANDS & AEGEAN BEAUTIES
For thousands of years, people have loved, fought and paid homage to the gods around the Aegean. Artemis and Apollo are said to have been born on the island of Delos, near Mykonos. One of the most important battles of the Roman Empire took place in Philippi, near Kavala. On Skiathos, you will walk in the footsteps of great Hollywood stars. A highlight of the trip is the Meteora monasteries, the UNESCO World Heritage Site, a breathtaking view of numerous monasteries that were either carved into the rock or perched on dizzyingly high ledges seemingly in mid-air. At the end of the trip, the vibrant metropolis of Istanbul with its mosques welcomes you.
