Ports of call

Alexandria (Cairo), Egypt

5 out of 5
the Pyramids were the ultimate sight of a lifetime;driving through the cities of Alexandria and Cairo was a great eyeopener to the contrasting lifestyles of westerners;you can also see the modern ring road area being built with shopping malls,Starbucks,McDonalds and mosques side by side ...a camel ride is a must!

Rhodes, Greece

5 out of 5
Old Town walled city was a must see;walking down through the market and bargaining for goods was a great experience;the drive along the coast was scenic with the beaches and tourist villas

Naples, Italy

5 out of 5
Pompeii was a must see/cameo factory a chance for local business to make money

Messina, Sicily

5 out of 5
this was a walkoff port for us..we enjoyed a city bus tour,a snack under the famous clock and a leisurely walk around the city

Kusadasi (Ephesus), Turkey

5 out of 5
The excavation of Ephesus was an amazing sight;our tour guide was very knowledgeable and made it come alive for us

Piraeus (Athens), Greece

1 out of 5
excursion disappointing;Acropolis closed due to strike,guide just hurried group off to market area;on our own we loved the sights,museum,Zeus Temple and touring the market

Pros: the exotic ports,and super service

Cons: expensive internet charges
