 |
Venice Italy
With 118 islands separated by more than 150 waterways, this is the original Venice, the canal-laced city that all the others are compared to. See the heralded Bridge of Sighs and St. Mark's Square. Enjoy a romantic ride in a gondola, or visit the nearby island of Murano, where artisans create its world famous glass. |
 |
Dubrovnik Croatia
Whatever you do, don’t miss the fantastic views of the Adriatic Sea and the city from Dubrovnik’s huge ramparts. You’ll get a bird’s eye view of the glistening marble streets, the Gothic and Renaissance palaces, splashing fountains and colourful parasols shading pavement cafés packed into narrow alleys and cloistered squares. |
 |
Piraeus (Athens) Greece
The port of Piraeus is just six miles from the heart of Athens and that wonderful symbol of the ancient world, the 2,500-years-old Parthenon, high atop the Acropolis. Take in the view, visit the old Roman marketplace – the Agora, and stop for an ouzo in one of the traditional tavernas in the Plaka district, where you might be tempted to a little shopping, too. |
 |
Izmir (Ephesus) Turkey
Although Turkey’s third largest city can trace its story back to 3,000 BC, today it’s a busy, modern metropolis. But history isn’t far away, so head south to Ephesus, one of the greatest archaeological sites in the world, to see grand buildings, like the amphitheatre, the stunning Library of Celsus and more prosaic establishments, including the public latrines and brothel. |
 |
Nafplion Greece
This is the kind of Greek seaside town you always hope you would discover with historic sights alongside tempting shops and tavernas. Must-sees are the huge Venetian fortress built high on a rocky acropolis and the carefully preserved Venetian buildings around Syntagma Square in the old town, which for a brief period was Greece’s capital. |
