A description of a Grecian and Turkey land tour is presented in
this book, encompassing cities and places circumvented by the
Aegean Sea. The cities, towns and places were all reached by a
combination of tour bus and cruise ship. The adventure begins in
Athens, Greece, and crosses Central Greece reaching Delphi. From
there it continues down into southwestern Greece into the town of
Nafpaktos, on the Corinthian Strait. Ferrying across the strait
into Peloponnese, the city of Nafplio is visited along with the
Mycenae and Epidaurus ruins. From here the adventure retracts back
to Athens by crossing over the Corinthian Canal. Here, mode of
travel is switched from bus to cruise ship, Ocean Misty. The
Grecian visit is continued when Santorini, Delos, and Mykonos
Islands were all visited. Next the island of Rhodes, bordering the
bottom of the Aegean Sea was reached. After this, Ephesus, Turkey,
was approached by ship, visited, and from there the Ocean Misty was
en route to the Dardanelles, the strait leading into the Sea of
Marmara, thereby soon reaching Istanbul, Turkey, which was the
adventure's highlight, including a visit to the Blue Mosque and a
cruise up the Bosphorus to the Black Sea. The area is well explored
in the writings of this book, a pleasure to read about these
countries around the Aegean Sea.
