Involves minimal physical effort and is typically associated with leisurely activities. Activities are low-intensity or last less than a few hours each day.
Though not the capital of modern Turkey (that title belongs to Anakara), Istanbul was the heart of first the Byzantine and then the Ottoman empire (when it was known as Constantinople), and it remains not only the most populous city in the country, but also one of the greatest cities in the world. Embark the Tere Moana, and enjoy time to settle into your stateroom before the ship sets sail this evening.
Day 2: Nessebur, Bulgaria
Located on a slender peninsula and offering one of the finest golden-sand beaches on the Black Sea, this ancient sea resort gracefully blends past and present. Admire a mix of architectural styles that span the centuries and earned the city designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Or simply enjoy the mild weather and sunny hospitality of the local people.
Day 3: Constanta, Romania
The site where Jason and the Argonauts landed after finding the Golden Fleece, according to legend, Constanta boasts 2,500 years of history but today is best known as a glamorous seaside resort. Enjoy its many ancient ruins, museums, casino, and beaches, as well as shopping and open-air restaurants.
Day 4: Odessa, Ukraine
A major seaport set on terraced hillsides on the Black Sea, Odessa has long been a major artistic, intellectual, and cultural center, and a freewheeling city with a multicultural ambiance. The Potemkin Stairs, an inviting walkway leading to the city from the sea, are a symbol of the city.
Day 5: Yalta, Ukraine
A fashionable resort since 1800, renowned for the healing properties of its climate, Yalta was the favored vacation retreat of the Romanov royal family and also the site where Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin charted the future of Europe in 1945. While here, you might visit the Chekhov House-Museum, where the famous playwright wrote his classic play The Cherry Orchard, or stroll the Nab Lenina, a palm-lined, pedestrian-only, seaside promenade.
Day 6: Sinop, Turkey
One of the oldest cities in Anatolia, Sinop boasts a history dating to the Early Bronze Age. See artifacts from its storied past at the Sinop Museum, one of the oldest active museums in Turkey, or in the Alaaddin Mosque and Alaiye Madrasah. Or perhaps you’ll view the ruins of its ancient castle and visit the Sinop Fortress Prison, once a state prison, located inside the fortress.
Day 7: At Sea
Today, you have a full day to take advantage of the luxurious amenities available aboard the Tere Moana. Attend a lecture, demonstration, or other activity arranged for you by your crew. Enjoy a massage at the spa. Pick up a souvenir at La Boutique. Take a dip in the pool. Or simply relax in a deck chair with a book from our onboard reading gallery.
Day 8: Disembark in Istanbul, Turkey
Your Mediterranean idyll ends where it began, in exotic Istanbul. Enjoy breakfast aboard before disembarking for your return flight home.

This was my first experience with Adventure Life - and I couldn't have been more pleased with the trip. The guides and local staff in both Buenos Aires and Uruguay were terrific - extremely helpful and accommodating. I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff in Buenos Aires in person (I left my bags with them for the afternoon).

A wonderful 9 day tour of beautiful Costa Rica taking in breath taking scenery including the active Arenal Volcano to the stunning beaches of Manuel Antonio.
Adventure Life made a fantastic itinerary for us(we were a group of 4) Would highly reccomend them for getting it right!
Lovely hotels with breakfast included, bespoke trips in mostly private transfers, zip-lining and white water rafting adventures! This really was an amazing trip & one we will cherish forever!

We book a tour to Peru with them in May. Viewing from their website we didn’t realize that they are private tour company but after quoting the price, it seems reasonable for a private tour, let’s see how’s their service after our tour. The process of booking went smoothly except the payment part which need a bit of work. Need to improve better payment method and options.
