Itinerary:
Day
1 Depart Newark Airport- Enjoy
your overnight flight to Italy. Dinner and Breakfast served
onboard.
Day 2 Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy:
Civitavecchia was settled in 108 A.D. by Emperor Trajan and
has since faithfully served as a gateway to the capital of the
Empire, Rome. Once the center of the ancient world from which
emperors ruled over nearly all of western civilization for hundreds
of years, Rome is still considered by many to reign over all
other European destinations. Here you can breathe the air once
breathed by great Roman gladiators in the ancient halls of the
Colosseum. Gaze upon the very ceilings Michelangelo painted
at the Sistine Chapel. Or visit a monument to both size and
faith, St. Peter's Basilica, the largest church ever built.
Day 3 Sicily (Messina), Italy:
Located in northeastern Sicily, on the slopes of the Peloritani
Mountains, Messina is an ancient place with a fascinating history.
Walk by the ruins of the Santa Maria Alemanna church, built in
1220 by the Teutonic Knights. You'll also want to see the Duomo,
a Romanesque and Norman cathedral that includes a display of artifacts
in its treasury.
Day 4
Today enjoy a leisurely day at sea.
Day 5 Athens (Piraeus), Greece:
Your adventure in Athens begins five miles southwest in Greece's
largest seaport, known as Piraeus. While here, be sure to take
notice of what is considered to be one of the greatest contributions
from the ancient Age of Pericles, the city's infrastructure, which
today we know as a city block. Athens brought the world drama,
history, poetry and philosophy - and wait till you see the buildings
these subjects were taught in. Once the world's most powerful
and civilized city, Athens is now the world's foremost archaeological
playground. The towering columns of the Parthenon still stand
as an ancient dedication to the virgin goddess Athena. Countless
classic sculptures and museums packed with historical wonders
and Athenian art abound.
Day
6 Mykonos, Greece:
Few places in the world compare with Mykonos. Here you'll find whitewashed
houses clinging to cliffs against a backdrop of indescribably blue
sea. Follow a maze of tiny streets, visit one of the world's most
superb beaches, or see the mythical birthplace of Apollo, the island
of Mykonos.
Day 7 Ephesus (Kusadasi), Turkey:
Nestled along the craggy shores of the Aegean Sea is the Turkish
port of Kusadasi. Renowned as one of the most beautiful cities along
the Aegean, Kusadasi is blessed with sunshine an average of 300
days a year. This beautiful city is the perfect setting to begin
your journey to Ephesus.
Day 8 Rhodes, Greece:
Rhodes, the friendliest city in the Mediterranean, welcomes you
with seemingly eternal sunshine thanks to more sunny days than any
other place in Europe. Situated at the island's most northern point,
Rhodes' only neighbors on the east and west are gleaming blue seas.
This sunny retreat is also home to many historic sites ranging from
the ruins of the Temple of Venus to the medieval Street of Knights.
Day 9 Santorini, Greece:
35.25 degrees north. 25.20 degrees east. Perfection has coordinates.
Here on Santorini, you'll find whitewashed houses accented by roofs
of the bluest blue - there's no doubt that azure waters of the Aegean
have served as creative inspiration. Among the many historic sites
on the island is the ancient city of Akrotiri, once buried under
a thick blanket of volcanic ash over 3,600 years ago.
Day 10 Today
enjoy a leisurely day at sea.
Day 11 Naples/Capri, Italy:
Located on the southern coast of Italy, Naples has spectacular scenery
that attracts artists from around the world. From this key spot,
you can embark on a trip to the ruins of Pompeii or shop the many
boutiques of Sorrento. You may work up an appetite for one of Naples'
greatest inventions - pizza - invented to honor the Queen of Italy
in 1889.
Day 12 Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy:
After
disembarkation transfer to the Rome airport for your flight home
filled with memories of this spectacular area of the world.
