Ponza Island, Italy
Seek out Ponza’s fascinating mix of ancient ruins, stroll among the wild orchids of its Botanical Gardens or simply bask in a classic and casual Mediterranean vibe. Often referred to as ‘Capri without the tourists’, this island off the coast of Italy’s Lazio region is a relaxing haven for those seeking to summer among steep white cliffs and crystalline water. Explore the Grotto di Pilato, a complex system of tunnels and pools constructed in the Roman period. Lose yourself in the secluded yet vibrant beach nirvana of Cala dell’Acqua. Afterward, wander among the sunrise-colored buildings, artisan boutiques and traditional seafood restaurants of the Centro Storico (historic center).

Trapani (Sicily), Italy
With a wealth of archeological sites, such as Selinunte and Segesta; the neighboring mountaintop medieval town of Erice, overlooking the beautiful archipelago of Egadi; and nearby Marsala (from the Arab name, "Marsa Allah," or “port of Allah”), with its House of Mosaics and renowned wine; Trapani allows visitors to experience Sicily with all of their senses. Don’t miss the day trip through the scenic countryside to local olive farms, where cooking demonstrations become delectable repasts, gastronomic memories in the making.

Gozo Island, Malta
An oasis on the Mediterranean, Gozo boasts historic fortifications and megalithic temples, as well as picturesque villages and tranquil beaches. The second largest island of the Maltese Archipelago, Gozo is home to some of the world's most curious rock formations, namely the Azure Window and the Blue Hole. Visit the ruins of the Ggantija Temple for a rare glimpse into the island's prehistoric past. On the north coast of the island, find several lovely red-sand beaches that are unlike any you have ever seen. For the perfect keepsake of your visit, bring home handmade woven items from traditional Gozo lace.

Syros, Greece
If Santorini and Mykonos are the superstars of the Cyclade Islands, Syros is its bastion of authentic Greek life. Founded during the Greek Revolution in the 1820s, the capital city of Ermoupoli is a dreamscape of pastel-colored neoclassical buildings and grand churches. Savor the ‘Duchess of the Aegean’ with visits to Plateia Miaouli, Ermoupoli’s marble-paved square; St George’s Cathedral atop the medieval hilltop settlement of Ano Syros; and Vaporia, the city’s most picturesque quarter, brimming with architectural splendor, ornate mansions and the church of Saint Nikolas, the patron saint of Ermoupolis.

Bozcaada, Turkey
The tiny island of Bozcaada floats peacefully off the western coast of Turkey in the Dardanelles Strait that connects the Marmara to the Aegean. This charming port boasts untouched bays with a rich marine life, delightful local culture, significant historical heritage, and world-class wine.

Istanbul, Turkey
Once serving as the capital of the Ottoman and Byzantine Empires, Istanbul today offers impressive architecture, historic sites, dining, shopping, nightlife and exotic atmosphere. Spend time in the Old City to explore renowned places, like the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace.

Myrina (Limnos), Greece
The capital of Limnos, a northern island in the Aegean Sea, Myrina stretches across a pair of sparkling bays that are separated by a 12th-century kastro (castle) atop an outcrop of volcanic rock. Stroll narrow streets and a waterfront rich with cafes and taverns for a feast of psári (fish), htapothi sti skhara (grilled octopus) and kalamarakia tiganita (fried calamari), leaving room for a Limnos take on baklava called samsades. Satisfy dueling passions – history and shopping – at a neoclassical archaeological museum overlooking Romeïkos Gialos Beach and lively agora (shopping precinct).

Ephesus (Kusadasi), Turkey
Europe’s classical metropolis, Ephesus, was one of the largest cities in all of the Roman Empire, boasting one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Temple of Artemis. Explore the ruins of its massive Theater, the Temple of Hadrian and the magnificent Celsus Library.

Santorini, Greece
With dramatic views of classic whitewashed houses clinging perilously to the side of the caldera and stunning beaches of white and red sand or black pebbles, it’s no wonder this may be the most photographed scenery in the world. Visit Ancient Akrotiri, the archeological site of a town frozen in time by ash from an eruption 3,600 years ago. Also worth a day trip is the Volcano of Santorini Palea (old) Kameni and Nea (new) Kameni , two small islands of black lava positioned in the centre of the basin of Santorini.

Athens (Piraeus), Greece
Piraeus is the gateway to the ancient city of Athens, known as the “Cradle of Western Civilization” because of its immense impact on cultural and political achievements throughout the world. Due mainly to tourism and the 2004 Olympics, Greece has redeveloped many sites in Athens. A historian’s delight, Athens is home to such magnificent wonders as: the Acropolis, the Parthenon, the atmospheric winding streets of the Plaka, Temple of Olympian Zeus and Temple of Athena Nike, and the Archaeological Museum with the world’s finest collection of ancient artifacts.
