Cappadocia, Sailing & Istanbul

On this tour, we combine three different activities in three different regions of Turkey: trekking to discover Cappadocia on foot; cultural visits to discover the legendary city of Istanbul and cruising to appreciate the turquoise blue water and to discover the magnificent Mediterranean coastline.

During thousands years, the landscape of Cappadocia, covered with soft volcanic ash, underwent an intense wind and hydraulic erosion which created one of the strangest spectacles of the world and made monumental peaks, fairy chimneys, capped pinnacles, cones and fretted ravines and canyons in a lunar landscape.

Turkey is a treasure chest of coves, inlets, bays and sandy beaches from which boats can choose a different and always private anchorage each night. On this idyllic cruise you will feel becoming one with nature sailing with the wind into coves and across the sea. In a splendid diversity of luminous landscapes where Lycian, Greek and Roman remains seem still alive, you will discover the wild and natural beauty of the southern coastline on a boat comfortably arranged for cruising.

And, we will spare two full days for discovering the place, which was successively Constantinople, Byzance and Istanbul: the richest and the most attractive city of the country. It is a unique city, built embracing two continents - Europe and Asia - and it preserves prestigious monuments, which testify to the richness of its history.
