Overnight stays in Istanbul and Venice
Get the most out of late summer and make great savings on a 12 night
Mediterranean holiday with Holland America Line. Departing on 28 August 2014,
the Venice
roundtrip cruise is perfect for exploring the best of the Med when
temperatures are still high but
summer holiday crowds have dispersed. This cruise on the Nieuw Amsterdam starts
from £1,079pp, based on two sharing an inside stateroom, and includes return
flights, transfers, and the full board cruise.
Setting
off from Venice, the first port of call is Katakolon
in Greece, gateway to Olympia,
followed by Piraeus, from where guests can easily visit Athens.
The ship then cruises The Dardanelles to Istanbul where guests will enjoy an
overnight stay in port, giving them extra time to explore the rich and
varied history of this city. Next stop is Lesbos, followed by Kusadasi
in Turkey, from where the ancient ghost town of Ephesus, dating back to the
first century BC, can be explored. The ship then continues onto
Santorini followed by Argostoli, where guests can enjoy pristine
beaches and fantastic local wine. Finally, the ship returns to Venice, where
passengers will experience an overnight stay in port to finish the
cruise.
