</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">Apr 12</th><td>	Thu</td><td>	Istanbul, Turkey	</td><td>Tour the the magnificent courtyards of Topkapi Palace, stroll among the treasures of the Blue Mosque with its unique six minarets, then view Dolmabahce Palace, the one-time residence of the sultans. Or you may cruise along the Bosphorus for a unique perspective of the city’s numerous seaside mansions, mosques and palaces.</td>
</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">Apr 13</th><td>	Fri</td><td>	Mykonos, Greece	</td><td>Today, this island is one of Greece’s most adored destinations due to its picture- postcard setting and growing nightlife. Mykonos is a superb example of Cycladic architecture, and by law even new buildings have to be built in the same style of whitewashed, organic, cube-like buildings. Be sure to plan a day trip to take in picturesque Little Venice, the unique Paraportiani church, and the archeological dig at Delos.</td>
</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">Apr 14</th><td>	Sat</td><td>	Ephesus (Kusadasi), Turkey	</td><td>Originally a minor port, Kusadasi now serves as the gateway to Ephesus, one of the ancient world’s largest and most important archaeological and religious sites. As you walk the white marbled pathway, note the grooves made by centuries of chariot wheels.  Sacred places nearby include the Basilica of St. John and the House of the Virgin Mary.</td>
</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">Apr 15</th><td>	Sun</td><td>	Santorini, Greece	</td><td>Visit Ancient Akrotiri, the archeological site of a town frozen in time by ash from an eruption 3,600 years ago. Also worth a day trip is the Volcano of Santorini Palea (old) Kameni and Nea (new) Kameni , two small islands of black lava positioned in the centre of the basin of Santorini.</td>
</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">Apr 16</th><td>	Mon</td><td>	Olympia (Katakolon), Greece	</td><td>Katakolon is gateway to ancient Olympia, the chief sanctuary of Zeus. After many centuries of competition which began as early as the eighth century BC, the panhellenic festival was created in 776 AD. Ancient competitions included boxing, wrestling, running, jumping, and the discus throw. It is still honored with the Olympics Games every four years. The ancient site of Olympia is also home to the Temple of Zeus, one of the Seven Wonders of the World.</td>
</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">Apr 17</th><td>	Tue</td><td>	Taormina (Sicily), Italy	</td><td>Naxos is gateway to the island of Sicily’s strategically significant northeastern region.

</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">Apr 18</th><td>	Wed</td><td>	Sorrento/Capri, Italy	</td><td>Sorrento is surely one of the world’s most beautiful towns, built on a coast with breathtaking views and landscapes. Overlooking the bay of Naples, the town is the key point on the Sorrentine Peninsula and is one of the most popular destinations of the entire Campania region. Make sure to plan a day trip to Capri, one of the most celebrated Italian islands, noted for its natural beauty.</td>

<th scope="row">Apr 19</th><td>	Thu</td><td>	Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy</td><td>Trastevere, or taking in the historical and architectural glory that is Rome, visitors are spoiled for choice in this truly Eternal City.

  <p>Embraced by rugged tropical mountains on one side and the beautiful Banderas Bay on the other, Puerto Vallarta is second only to Acapulco when it comes to the Mexican Riviera. White stucco houses are capped with red-tile roofs and surrounded by bougainvillea-lined cobblestone streets.  </p>
  <p>Nearby, sophisticated restaurants, luxury hotels, smart boutiques and lively nightclubs bear testament to the changes wrought on this quiet seaside city since the 1960s. Life here has never been quite the same since the filming of the movie "Night of the Iguana" and the worldwide publicity accorded the romance of its stars, Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor.

  <p>Then there is the excursion of boating five miles from shore to the Islas Coronado, where you can spot sea lions basking in the sun.
    
    All these features make Loreto an appealing destination on  Crystal Cruises. </p>
  <p>Loreto was founded in 1697 as the head of the Jesuit missions to California and for 130 years, served as the territory's capital. Stop in the original mission church and wander through the small museum next door and learn more about Baja's missionary history. </p></td>
