Set sail for a generous helping of history on this voyage from Lisbon to Istanbul. Departing the capital of Portugal, head south on a sea day to Cadiz in southern Spain for a tour of its ancient city center. Follow the coast eastwards to Malaga, Cartegena, and Valencia, before another day at sea. An overnight in Malta’s capital, Valletta, means you can see a few of the city's 320 historic monuments, including stunning St John's Cathedral and its two Caravaggio masterpieces. Two Greek islands, Crete and Rhodes, offer some serious archaeological study, before the voyage ends with a glimpse of Ottoman times in Istanbul.
