Embark on a journey from Turkey's largest city and set sail towards the ancient wonders of Athens aboard the ever-elegant Star Flyer, a luxury tall-ship that captures the romance of classic sailing without compromising on comfort or amenities.

Begin with a 3-night stay at a 5* luxury hotel in Istanbul - with a guided walking tour of the Old City - before setting sail from this vibrant and eclectic city. Your 7-night voyage will take you to the coastal beauty of Dikili, the untouched charms of Limnos, the spiritual calm of Ouranoupoli, the lush landscapes of Skopelos, and the relaxed elegance of Poros.

The adventure concludes with a 3-night stay in Athens at the iconic St. George Lycabettus, complete with sweeping views of the Acropolis and a guided tour of its museum.

With Business Class flights, luxury accommodation, immersive tours, and a full-board sailing included, this is a journey of pure elegance and discovery.
