Gulet cruise Turkey and Greece

The ancient town, dating back to the 12th century BC, was called "Halicarnassus" and in the 5th century BC, it gave birth to Herodotus, the father of history. The Mausoleum of Mausolus (350 BC), considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World, once stood here. The amphitheater dates back to classical times, with a capacity of 13,000 seats, and is still in use. The fortress, once called the "Castle of St. Peter," was built by the Knights of Rhodes in medieval times using material taken from the mausoleum. Dinner on board and overnight. (D)
