Welcome to Athens! A private minivan will be waiting for you at the departures gate in order to take you to your stay. After arranging your luggage, you are ready to start the day off. The first stop will be at the Acropolis Museum where a local guide will be expecting you to start the tour. Afterwards you will have the opportunity to see the Parthenon and learn more about this ancient world wonder. Early in the afternoon, you will have lunch in a local restaurant where you will enjoy Mediterranean cuisine. You will have plenty of time for local shopping on central Athenian streets. End the day by strolling around the city and getting familiar with the Greek nightlife.

The second and last day in Athens will be spent in the southern suburbs of Attica in the Athenian Riviera. A private van with an experienced guide will take you to the temple of Poseidon. Discover the golden age of Athens and the architecture of the temple as you gaze at the beautiful scenery. During the sunset, you will be able to dine in a restaurant by the sea before getting some rest at your residence. Get ready for the next stop on your journey.

Early in the morning, the private van will take you to the airport and after 2 hours you will be landing in Istanbul where a local guide will be waiting for you. First stop will be at the hotel. Prepare yourself and start exploring Istanbul. The most important attraction is Aya Sofia, which was a Christian Church during the Byzantine times. The guide will take you back in time so that you can learn more about its glorious past. Stroll around the city and shop in the Grand Bazaar, one of the biggest open markets in the world and try some of the local flavors.

The last day will begin with a tour of the Topkapi Palace beside the Bosphorus, built by Mehmed the Conqueror. The Blue Mosque is also certainly one of the top attractions worth seeing, due to its architecture and exterior design with six minarets, and the garden adjoined by Aya Sofia.
