Your journey begins in Istanbul, an exotic
combination of East and West. Visit the Blue Mosque and the Palace of
Sultans; shop in the Grand Bazaar, and cruise along the Bosphorus.
Travel to ancient Cappadocia where volcanic formations resemble giant
chimneys; some have been adapted into homes and even churches. There are
more classical ruins in Turkey than Greece; go to Antalya and visit
ancient Lycian cities that date back to the 5th century BC and to the
ruins of one of the most important cities of the Roman Empire at
Ephesus.
If you have more time to continue your travels,
cruise the Turquoise Coast of Turkey on board the
M/Y Halas. Spend your
days sailing among the islands off the southern coast swimming and
sunning; in the evenings, dine on freshly caught seafood and watch
gilded sunsets from the comfort of your deck chair.
