Unforgettable Luxury Cruises to Turkey

Discover the unique contrasts of Turkey, a fascinating country where history and modernity collide. On luxury Turkey cruises, visit the alluring capital of Istanbul, a cosmopolitan city divided between Europe and Asia by the scenic Bosphorus Strait. Explore the Ancient Greek city of Ephesus, home to one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

Depending on the itinerary, our cruises to Turkey stop in ports in Spain, Italy, and the Greek Islands along the way, as well as include an overnight stay in Istanbul. You can also embark on an unforgettable journey that sails around the Mediterranean and Israel, which visits the charming port of Haifa and includes an overnight stay in the historic city of Jerusalem.

Turkey Cruise Highlights

Ancient ruins.

Make your way around the historic city of Ephesus, where you’ll find temples, theaters, and a library, all of which date back 2,000 years. Even though 80% of this ancient metropolis remains buried, you’ll still be able to marvel at a trove of archeological treasures. While in Istanbul, descend into the Basilica Cistern, a Byzantine structure built by Emperor Justinian in 532, which features over 300 ancient columns.

Religious Landmarks

Spend a day exploring Istanbul’s most famous landmarks, such as the Hagia Sophia, a spectacular 6th-century building that has served as a mosque, Eastern Orthodox church, and Catholic cathedral throughout its storied history. Or step inside the neighboring Blue Mosque, a grand domed structure built during the Ottoman Empire which still serves as a popular place of worship today. While in Ephesus, pay a visit to the House of the Virgin Mary, where the mother of Jesus is said to have lived during the last years of her life.

Incredible Cuisine

Savor the unique flavors of Turkish cuisine, where you’ll find a mix of Mediterranean dishes and Eastern ingredients. Meat lovers can try different iterations of the local specialty, lamb kebabs, while vegetarians will love plant-based foods such as red lentil soup, bulgur salads, and dolmas. Don’t leave without trying a plate of manti, small dough kebabs that come with a variety of fillings.

Featured Ports
