Discover Must do experiences and highlights in Greece and Turkey

Hot Air Balloon Over Cappadocia

Soar over intriguing mountain ranges, valleys and obelisks carved from erosion along with a rainbow of other balloons that dot the morning sky.

Atmospheric Athens

Steeped in history, mythology and character from the ancient ruins of the Acropolis to the street art and lively open air restaurants, it’s one for the list!

Sunsets on Santorini

Pick your vantage point for the Santorini sunsets, that special time of day when the sky turns pink and the whitewashed buildings follow suit.

The Monasteries of Meteora

Perched atop sandstone peaks are a collection of monasteries crafted between the 14th and 16th centuries by determined monks who called the area home. Once 24-strong, there are still six monasteries in operation.

Haggle at Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar

Get lost amidst the spice shops, rug merchants, and stalls adorned with colourful stained glass lanterns. Sample Turkish delight from street side vendors and spend hours deciding how much patterned pottery to buy.

Secrets of Greece Julianne and Edward, WA, Australia, May 2024

Best of Greece with Celestyal cruise Daniel and Patricia, NSW, Australia, Apr 2024

Highly recommend to combine the best of Greece with a Celestyal cruise, ideally after but either way will be well worth it. Overall taste of Greece, by Land and Sea.

Best of Turkey Tour JP and M, NSW, Australia, Mar 2024

It was a well organised trip entirely. The tour director was knowledgeable and caring, the driver was excellent. We cannot complain Trafalgar tours. As always, thank you, Hannah from Global Journeys, for organising this trip for us. You made it easy! We had wonderful time!
