Description

Place Turkey center stage as you uncover its many dazzling facets, from Ephesus’ nearly intact Roman ruins to Bodrum’s imposing Knights Hospitaller fortress, and relish pauses in the distinctive, shimmering islands of Santorini, Crete and Cyprus.

Climb up the magnificent Acropolis and stand in awe of the Parthenon, the beautiful temples and the view over Athens stretched out before you. See city highlights including the new and old Olympic stadiums. Journey to Cape Sounion and the temple of Poseidon overlooking the sea, or visit ancient Corinth and the narrow Corinth Canal cut through miles of solid rock.

Visit the beautiful whitewashed hilltop towns of Oia and Fira and their breathtaking views of the caldera below. See the stunning artifacts in Fira's museum, including recent finds from the excavation of Akrotiri, thought by many to be the legendary city of Atlantis, or visit a winery. Stroll through the winding streets with fantastic views around every corner.

Visit the great Minoan ruins of the Palace of Knossos, famous as the home of the labyrinth where the Minotaur roamed, and the archaeological museum that houses many superb artifacts from the complex. Explore the stunning, mountain-fringed Lassithi plateau with its orchards, 7,000 windmills and ancient villages.

A playground for yachters, tourists and jet setters, modern Bodrum stands on the site of the ancient city of Halicarnassus. You can still see the foundations of the mausoleum, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, which was destroyed by earthquakes. The Knights of St. John used its stones to build Bodrum Castle, fascinating not only as a medieval monument but also for the Museum of Underwater Archaeology within its walls, which includes a display of the oldest known shipwreck.

Discover this delightful ancient town and its many treasures, from the superb artifacts in the museum to Ottoman mansions, Byzantine churches and mosques, Hadrian's Gate, and the ancient Roman harbor now restored and alive with cafés and pleasure boats. Or head for the magnificent ruins of Perge and Aspendos and imagine the history of these cities, from Alexander to St. Paul and from the Romans to the Arabs. Stand in awe of the huge Roman theater and the crumbling aqueduct.

Limassol is the jumping off point to explore the ancient riches of Cyprus. See ruins, majestic mountains and scenery, stunning beaches, and vast groves of lemons, oranges and olives. Visit Lemesos Castle, where Richard the Lionheart married Berengaria of Navarre, and its fascinating museum. Or stroll through ancient Curium and admire its stunning mosaics, theater, basilica and panoramic views over the sea. Venture inland to Nicosia and its wonders like the Cathedral of St. John, the Venetian fortifications, a restored old town and mosque, and the Cyprus Museum.

Turkey's most notable beach resort, Marmaris has a chic and tony 'Riviera' feel to it. An elegant, palm-lined promenade weaves its way around the shoreline, while the marina plays host to a flotilla of gleaming white yachts. Ancient and natural history are served up in Dalyan or discover a Turkish tradition with a visit to a hammam or Turkish bath.

Meander through the ruins of ancient Ephesus and marvel at the famed Library of Celsus, the huge amphitheater, the marble roads with their chariot marks, the amazing mosaic sidewalks and the superb, rarely opened Terrace Houses. Or journey to three monumental cities of antiquity - Priene, Miletus and Didyma - renowned for their majestic temples and impressive, beautifully preserved stadiums.

Delight in this breezy Aegean gem, a beach-blessed island also known for producing some of Turkey’s best wines. You’ll notice the ambiance gracefully blends Greek and Turkish sensibilities, evident in the clusters of whitewashed buildings from which the occasional minaret bursts forth. Browse enticing souvenirs crafted by local artisans, perhaps picking up a jar of the island’s delicious tomato marmalade. Beside the cozy harbor, you’ll discover the town’s imposing 15th-century castle, which is among the country’s best preserved. From the crenellated ramparts, look across the crystalline sea and picture Achilles’ arrival to this very spot during the legendary Trojan War.

Indulge your eyes and senses in this magnificent city astride two continents. Visit beautiful Topkapi Palace, the awesome Hagia Sophia and the impressive Blue Mosque. Cruise the Bosphorus to see the city and its surroundings from another perspective. Visit one of the many museums or stroll through the spice market and the famous Grand Bazaar.

The aesthetic recalls a traditional equestrian estate — warm and inviting with an atmosphere of effortless, timeless luxury. It is the perfect place to curl up with a best-selling novel, peruse a guidebook on your next destination or simply indulge in a nap in one of the plush, oversized chairs.

On every voyage, a Guest Speaker will share unique insights into the cultures and people of the regions visited, along with fascinating stories and themes related to the destinations. On select sailings, a second Guest Speaker will provide an additional program of enriching presentations and workshops. Also take advantage of complimentary seminars hosted by the Aquamar Spa + Vitality Center on a range of relevant and timely health, nutrition and wellness topics to reinvigorate your routines and lifestyle. Check your daily onboard newsletter, Currents, for a schedule of talks, presentations and seminars.

From chic Martinis to the laid-back poolside Waves Bar, there's a perfect enclave on board Vista for every mood. Visit the elegant Grand Lounge for a pre-dinner cocktail, catch a headline act in the Lounge or watch the sun set in Horizons accompanied by a glass of wine and lively music. New and innovative cocktail experiences await at Martinis, Founders Bar and beyond. As you explore the world, these bars and lounges are the place to unwind, gather together, laugh and take in one-of-a-kind shows and musical performances.

Martinis
The lounge known as Martinis is far more than a place to sip a signature cocktail — although its namesake libation alone is reason enough to spend some time here. In fact, Martinis is refreshing its namesake cocktail with fresh new spirits selection, Mermaid gin and vodka. The bar is a glamorous destination that welcomes you to a warm, inviting setting amidst walls of shimmering glass under a canopy of crystal. You’ll also be able to choose from a tantalizing new collection of drinks called Hollywood Martinis, in addition to the already popular selection shaken tableside. The Hollywood collection includes a variety of drinks inspired by the Old Hollywood, such as Bardot Martini, The Corleone Martini, Sir Connery Martini, Blue Eyes Sinatra and Monroe Martini. Simply gather with friends in your favorite alcove and let the memories be made.



Founders Bar
A brand new experience on Vista focused entirely on the art of the cocktail, Founders Bar is the place to gather to enjoy its unique selection of bourbons and ryes in addition to enjoying the tableside preparation of cocktails and spirits. The bar will likely become an Instagram favorite for serving readymade Negronis straight from the barrel and awesome “Flavor Blaster Gun” cocktails that are topped off with vapor filled bubbles with aromatic flavors.



Grand Lounge
Vista’s provocative Grand Lounge plays with shape and form to create visual elements that are striking even as they are understated. The color palette is an ode to metals and minerals with shades of bronze, onyx and alabaster lending both balance and interest. The resulting space evokes exclusivity — the feel of a luxurious private club — inviting guests to relax and enjoy an aperitif before dinner or a nightcap before retiring as they relive the day’s adventures with fellow explorers.



Vista Lounge
Our entertainment architects have engineered a space with the best possible acoustics and visual lines to provide a home worthy of the engaging talent that you will witness in the Vista Lounge. During the daytime, experts in their fields — from diplomats to chefs to historians — enlighten you with enrichment programs that provide insight into the regions you are exploring. After the sun sets, the Vista Lounge presents a new line-up of entertainment to enthrall the audience, including sophisticated cabarets, world-class musicians, dynamic vocalists and exclusive headliners.



Horizons
The most distinctive feature of aptly named Horizons is the lounge’s dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows, offering 180 degrees of stunning vistas that are the ship’s namesake. This space celebrates the journey by providing a unique perspective on the alluring destinations that await ashore and the seas that carry you to what lies ahead. To ensure that you can fully appreciate these sweeping panoramas, Horizons is appointed with comfortable furnishings in soothing tones that create a sense of home, even as the view assures you that you are far from it.



Waves Bar
Located in a shaded area just steps from the swimming pool, Waves Bar offers a wide variety of libations to enhance your poolside experience. Revel in the perfect afternoon on deck with your favorite cocktail, glass of wine or chilled beer. Come happy hour, signature cocktails and frosty beverages create a delightfully carefree segue to the lively evening ahead as the sun sets.

Deck 6

An extensive team of performers, producers and technicians has been involved in bringing our newest production shows to life and offering entertainment from a new perspective.

Sophisticated and exciting, Into the Night will leave audiences awestruck as it combines dance with design, exuding a powerful feeling only a live stage show can offer.

Headliners takes guests on a VIP concert journey showcasing a stunning cast performing some of the most recognizable songs in the world.

For a missing U.S. national and all serious felonies (homicide, suspicious death, kidnapping, assault with serious bodily injury, sexual assaults as defined by federal laws, firing or tampering with the vessel, or theft of money or property in excess of $10,000) the incident must be reported to the FBI by telephone as soon as possible, to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security electronically, and to the U.S. Coast Guard in writing. These requirements apply to incidents that occur on board in U.S. territorial waters, or on the high seas or in foreign waters if the assailant or victim is a U.S. national.

The FBI can assert criminal jurisdiction in all of these circumstances. Each of the nations visited, as well as the vessel’s nation of registry, may also assert jurisdiction and/or impose additional reporting requirements. Oceania Cruises reserves the right to report any/all criminal allegations to any national, state or local law enforcement agency in addition to those mentioned.

For missing persons or felonies arising at any time during the voyage you may independently contact the FBI or U.S. Coast Guard. For incidents within state or foreign waters or ports you may, in addition, contact local law enforcement authorities. Contact information for these entities and the National Sexual Assault Hotline is listed on the following page, along with the locations of U.S. Embassies and Consulates in the ports visited.
