Seadream Yacht Club has five sailings in August and September this year between Istanbul and Athens that include not only the most sought-after islands and port towns in Greece, but the opportunity to visit Gallipoli as well during its historic 100th Anniversary year.
And one 7-day sailing south to Athens can be followed by 6-days back to Istanbul with a 10 per cent discount on this return leg – giving a rewarding thirteen days visiting ten destinations in Greece, as well as Kepez twice for Gallipoli in one direction and ancient Troy in the other, and Kusadasi in Turkey for a visit to the ruins of historic Ephesus.
The one-week Istanbul-Athens departs on August 29 and is priced from US$5,026pp twin-share. Ports of call include Kepez for Troy or Gallipoli, Kusadasi for Ephesus, Patmos, Paros and Sifnos Islands, and Hydra.
At Ephesus, SeaDream’s President Bob Lepisto who will be aboard for the week, will escort guests to an exclusive evening of Champagne and orchestral music amid the famous ruins… a stand-out event in a sailing full of highlights.
The return 6-days to Istanbul departs Athens on September 5 and is priced from US$4,365pp twin-share visiting Skopelos and Skiathos Islands, a sail-by of the Mount Athos monasteries founded in 1054, Petra, Lesvos Island and Kepez.
