Rhodes and the Aegean: what will you see?
If you’re looking for a trip that’s rich with history and culture, this tour visits two of the most important countries of antiquity: Greece and Turkey.
The journey begins on Rhodes, the Island of the Sun God. Visit the mediaeval city of Rhodes Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Meander through its narrow streets and see the harbour where the Colossus of Rhodes – a 30-metre-high bronze statue of Helios – once greeted sailors.
Journey by catamaran to the Turkish Aegean and its beautiful forests and bays. Visit the world-famous limestone terraces at Pamukkale and its thermal spas. This natural phenomenon neighbours the ancient Roman city of Hieropolis, a second UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Other highlights on this tour include exploring the ancient city of Aphrodisias and its mighty tetrapylon, agora and theatre, followed by a visit to a traditional carpet knitting factory. While in Turkey, guests can also enjoy the spectacle of Ephesus, the Library of Celsus and the ruins of the Temple of Artemis.
On return to Rhodes, guests have the opportunity to relax with a four-day sojourn in a four-star beachside hotel.
