In 2024, the Astoria Grande liner, which goes to Turkey and Egypt, will expand the program. It will include visits to the Turkish resorts of the southern coast - Izmir, Bodrum, Antalya and Marmaris. This will allow you to combine a visa-free vacation on a liner with a beach vacation.
- Next year's schedule includes a new two-week cruise scheduled for October. This time is considered a real velvet season in Turkey and attracts tourists from all over the world. Marmaris is known for its mild climate and is one of the best youth corners of the coast, Antalya needs no introduction, it has long been dearly loved by Russian tourists, Bodrum is rightfully considered the most premium resort in the country, as for Izmir — it is the third largest metropolis in Turkey, whose rich heritage is reflected in its architecture, - the report says the company's sales agent.
In each new port along the Astoria Grande route, passengers will be offered a variety of excursions with a Russian-speaking guide. On board the liner itself, cards of Russian and international payment systems are accepted for payment.
