Overview

 
select to open Bodrum pictures - Opens a dialog

The history of Bodrum, known as Halicarnassus or Halicarnassos goes back to the 13th century BC. Excavations reveal the 5000-year-old history of this town. Many civilizations found their home here. Carians for example, Homer tells in his Ilia, that the Carians helped to defend Troya. Herodotus, known as the father of history, was born in Bodrum in 484 BC- and he said that Bodrum had been founded by the Dorians. The next settlers were the Carians and Lelegians. In the 6th. Century BC, the region came under Persian rule. Its most brilliant period was around 353. BC. when it was the capital of the Satrap of Caria (In this century it was famous for its trade, sailing, and boatbuilding.) Artemisia who was a warrior-woman played a significant role in the protection of the Asian Union and she achieved fame by adopting a stance against Rhodes as the Admiral of the Carianfleet in 480 BC.  The Mausoleum is Bodrums oldest antiquity and was built by Artemisia II in honor of her husband King Mausolos. It became one of the wonders of the ancient world, Mausoleum still is the general term for a large tomb. The entire structure stood at over 50 meters in height. The first reliefs from the Mausoleum reached the British Museum in London in 1846, these included frescos and other objects.

Day 6 Port of Call Kusadasi Arrival 7:00am Departure 5:00pm

Overview

 
select to open Kusadasi pictures - Opens a dialog

This seaside resort town has grown immensely in the last 30 years and is especially popular with package holiday-makers from Europe. From a population of 6000 in the 1970s, it is now closer to 50,000, although a high proportion of this is part of the tourist industry and here only for the summer. Many cruising ships traveling around the Aegean Islands stop here, especially because of its proximity (20km) to Selcuk. Kusadasi is a good base to explore this and other ancient cities like Priene and Didyma. Although there is little historical interest in Kusadasi itself, the town is popular predominantly because of its many hotels, restaurants, souvenir and carpet shops, and lively nightlife. The Kale district has some old traditional houses and narrow streets which gives some indication of what the town used to be like. The most famous beach is Kadinlar Plaji, 2.5km south of the town, dominated by huge hotels, and can get very crowded in summer. There are several small beaches further south, and closer to town is Yilanci Burnu, the peninsular.

Day 7 Port of Call Thira/Santorini Arrival 7:00am Departure 8:00pm

Overview

 
select to open Thira/Santorini pictures - Opens a dialog

Fira is a comparatively modern town, with houses built mostly during the 19th century when the old Venetian capital at Skaros became untenable due to earthquakes. The architecture is a jumble of Cycladic and Venetian, side by side, the similarities between the two being the stark whiteness. The impact of Aegean tourism has made itself felt in Fira, judging from the abundance of taverns, hotels, discotheques, and shops. It is the largest town on the island and has gained preference with travelers because it is central and access to other parts of Santorini is made easy by either taxi or bus. From there you can indulge in some inspiring coastal walks. Wandering through the white cobbled streets of Fira, a town of about 2,000 inhabitants, one gets the feel of the old-world charm blended in with the modern-day comforts. The town's archaeological museum is crammed with finds from excavations at Akrotiri. But besides being so interesting archaeologically, Santorini is essentially a beauty spot, an island whose cliffs seem to glow under an exceptionally clear light all day, but which at sunset glow redly, evoking that vast explosion more than 3000 years ago.
