Greece, Turkey and the Aegean

Buy Securely Online

 

Hear the sounds of Pericles, Socrates and Sophocles as you wander the streets of Athens. The Acropolis, made grand under Pericles and doomed under Turkish domination, rises again in glory.

Sail the wine dark sea and feel like Odysseus meandering on his way home. The islands of the Aegean and the ancient city of Ephesus will greet you as you make your way to the once great Christian capital, Istanbul (Constantinople).

Wander the mountain paths to the famed oracle at Delphi. The aura of Mt. Parnassus rising behind as you stand at the Temple of Athena confirms the Greek notion that this is the navel of the world.

Drench yourself with Mediterranean sun on the warm inviting sands of Greece’s beaches as you experience the world encompasses the lives of Pericles to Atatürk.
