Mythology Buff Dad

Your father has read everything Joseph Campbell ever put on paper and named his schnauzer Zeus. Here's his chance to see where it all happened. Elixir Tour's Battlefields and Temples tour will take dad on a ten-day journey through Turkey, starting in Istanbul and then journeying to the battlefields at Gallipoli and Troy. By night, he'll enjoy an amazing seafood dinner and a restful night's sleep at the foot of Mount Ida. From there it's onto Assos and the Temple of Athena, where Aristotle enlightened his pupils. He'll spend the last three nights of the adventure in Kusadis in a five-star hotel located on the peninsula. From home base at the aptly named Hotel Kismet, he'll day trip out to the Oracle of Apollo, the House of the Virgin Mary and explore some of Turkey's most amazing archaeological sites. Individually tailored private tour for two, with driver, guide and executive car with business-class flight from London start at approximately $7,200 per person.
