cruises to greece and turkey
For experienced travelers?

Ok I am going on a cruise of sorts for my honeymoon in the begining of July of this year we are going to each of the following cities. We will be arriving in “the center of the city” in each place at 9am and are required to get on our bus to bring us back to the ship at 9pm.
For people that have been any of these places if you only had one day to do something there what would you do?

Marselle, France
Florence, Italy
Rome, Italy
Naples, Italy
Mykonos, Greece
Istanbul, Turkey
Kusadasi (Ephesus), Turkey
Athens, Greece
Venice, Italy

In addition we will be spending 3 days in Barcelona, Spain before the cruise, and 2 days in Seville, Spain and 5 days in London, England after.

The choice of your cruise is excellent. All stops are a-must-see in Mediterranean.
Marseilles: Since my mind is usually on food, bouillabaisse( a fish stew ); the Church of Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde, which sits above the city ; and the namesake for the national anthem of France, La Marseillaise.
Usually there is a choice of going to Avignon ( seat of the Popes in XIV century), Arles and Les Baux ( Arles was founded by Julius Caesar, Vincent Van Gogh spent some time here, Roman amphitheater ) and Aix-en-Provence ( home of impressionist Paul Cezanne and place for shopping at local market.).
It is nice to stay in the town on your own. I wouldn’t go on excursion.
BBL to finish,,,,,
