3 Nights – Athens
3 Nights – Istanbul
8 Nights – Beach Resort (In either Greece or Turkey)
✈️ UK – Athens (3 nights): (If you prefer, you may start your journey with Istanbul) You will take a flight from the UK to Athens, where we will meet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel for the following 3 nights. Athens, the capital of Greece, is where it all began, well, at least where Western civilisation was born and as such, it is filled with a plethora of stunning ancient monuments and buildings to explore and discover. You will struggle to find a better view than the one from the Acropolis, which offers a truly breath-taking panoramic view of the city from Athens’s landmark hill. There are many historic buildings on the Acropolis, but undoubtedly the most famous is the Parthenon with its majestic white columns, a dedication to the maiden goddess of Athena. The modern Acropolis museum is the perfect complement to your visit here, with its exquisite exhibits and amazing artefacts, stones and statues from classical history. Athens has a lot to offers besides its ancient monuments. Take a stroll around the old historical neighbourhood of Plaka, with its atmospheric streets filled with cafes, bars and boutiques. Also visit the districts of Monastiráki and Psyrrí, which are home to some great nightlife, shops and restaurants.
✈️ Athens – Istanbul (3 nights): On your final day in Athens, we will pick you up from your hotel and transfer you back to the airport for your onward flight to Istanbul. Istanbul was the capital of the Roman Empire and is steeped in history. It also has a unique blend of Asian and European influences, uniquely straddling the two continents by the Bosphorus Waterway. On the historic European side of the city, the Sultanahmet is one of the city’s major sights, with its stunning Blue Mosque adorned with more than 20,000 Iznek tiles, a fabulous example of classical Ottoman architecture. Another of the city’s architectural wonders is the Hagia Sophia, a former church turned mosque, but now a museum which is deemed one of the best surviving pieces of Byzantine architecture. If you like a good haggle, visit the historic Grand Bazaar, one of the largest and oldest in covered markets in the world, selling jewellery, leather, spices and other Turkish wares. For something a little more relaxing, why not take a boat trip down the Bosphorus waterway for a great way to see the city, including its Asian side. Or for a truly authentic Turkish experience, visit one of the Turkish hammam baths for a body scrub and massage!
✈️ Athens/Istanbul – Beach (8 nights): To conclude your holiday, you will take an 8 night break at one of the stunning beach resorts that Greece and Turkey has to offer. We will pick you up from your hotel in Istanbul (or Athens) and take you to the airport for your onward flight. Whether you choose to visit a Greek or Turkish resort, you won’t be disappointed. For a spot of Greek seclusion or romance, visit the beautiful islands of Elounda, or Santorini. For something a little livelier, try Rhodes or Mykonos. If you prefer to choose a Turkish beach resort, there are plenty to choose from including the popular resort of Marmaris, or the old fishing village of Bodrum or the wide sandy beaches of Oludeniz.
✈️ Beach – UK: On your final day at your chosen beach destination, we will pick you up from your hotel and transfer you back to the airport for your flight home to the UK.

I have recently booked a multi centre holiday with Nick at eShores. He was great, he advised me with a few different destinations and timescales for each stop, with different price options also. Nothing was set in stone and I’m now looking forward to a wonderful holiday in Croatia.
This is the 1st time I have used Eshore or even booked a holiday online. Emily was so helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Everything I asked for was dealt with by Emily professionally and with care and consideration. I would definately use her again in the future if this type of holiday was required…
Trip to Baltic capitals in June, options well presented and discussed and organised for me. Looks spot on & I've used eShores last year too so I expect it will prove to be a good trip.
Claire was fantastic at eShores. She managed to tailor my holiday exactly to my requirements and was well below my budget. She managed to find me hotels with easy train/airport access in the different cities I will be staying at in France. This was very important to me. Wonderful service and I will definitely be…

Booked another trip with Eshores, Nick is our agent, always willing to help with choosing locations, finds great hotels and builds our holiday to our specifications and budget. We’ve been booking with Nick for a few years now and he never disappoints. Thank you!
The agent who organised my holiday was friendly, kind and very efficient - a delight! She gave me exactly what I asked for without raising any issues and for a good price. Can't do better than that!
Booked my second holiday cruise with Dave. He spent lots of time and described everything in detail. Made me feel very comfortable before I booked the cruises. One bring a 67 day cruise and the other a New Years cruise. So I was spending a lot of money. He went above and beyond my expectations.…
Kelly Bennett has been amazing each and every time, she takes the time to listen and understand the requirments and always delivers. 10 out 10 every time.
