A port city, it occupies a thin strip of land between the Adriatic coast and Slovenia’s border on the limestone-dominated Karst Plateau. Italian, Austro-Hungarian and Slovenian influences are all evident in its layout, which encompasses a medieval old city and a neoclassical Austrian quarter. ### Day 2: Rijeka, Croatia **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 04:00 PM ### Day 3: Split **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 04:00 PM In Croatia, the Old Town of Split wraps around the luxurious palace where the Roman emperor Diocletian lived out his last days after abdicating in AD 305. Today, this remarkable white limestone palace, a UNESCO Site, awaits your discovery. Part luxurious villa, part military camp, the palace is enclosed by imposing walls and connected by roads linking the eastern Silver Gate with the Iron Gate to the west. Within: an octagonal domed mausoleum, temples and a monumental court accessing the imperia... ### Day 4: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 5: Thira (Santorini) **Arrives:** 10:00 AM · **Departs:** 07:00 PM Your harbor on this island was created by a volcano in 1500 BC., and the effect is still explosive: steep cliffs rise from sea level, cubist white houses glow in the Aegean sun. Sample shore excursion: Panoramic Santor ni. ### Day 6: Mykonos **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM Informality rules on this sunny isle where pleasure-seekers from around the world come to play.

St. Paul preached in its Great Theater, while the facade of the Celsus Library survives as a testament to the city’s role as a center of learning and culture. Not far from Ephesus, the Temple of Artemis (also known as the Temple of Diana), one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world, once stood, drawing pilgrims from around the Mediterranean. While it no longer stands, it is possible to wa... ### Day 8: Istanbul **Arrives:** 12:00 PM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM Blurring the line between east and west, Istanbul stands at the crossroads of two continents. The city's architecture is rivalled only by its spectacular natural setting on the Bosphorus Strait. See the Blue Mosque, the Topkapi Palace and the Byzantine Church of St Sophia. Take time to wander through the Grand Bazaar or the Spice Market and sample baklava and shish kebabs. ### Day 9: Istanbul **Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 07:00 PM Blurring the line between east and west, Istanbul stands at the crossroads of two continents.
