Tarent is the capital city of the Italian province of the same name. The city's position is unique: the old town was built on an island between two natural water basins, separated from the open sea. A swing bridge that spans the shipping canal opened in 1481connects the old town with the new town. The entrance to the canal is overlooked by the castle, which also dates from this time and which is today used by the Marines; it is probably also the most popular postcard image of the city. But the main reason to visit Tarent is to visit the Archaeological Museum in the new town. It holds the famous golden treasures of Tarent, a unique collection of precious antique jewels.

The charming little town of Nauplion, once the capital city of Greece, is perfect for tours of the surrounding area, such as the ancient Mycenae and the famous theatre of Epidaurus. A stroll through the beautiful old town with its lovingly restored houses is also fascinating. A visit to the Palamidi fort above the rooftops of the old town is well worth it for the wonderful panorama view of the Argolis.

Argostoli is the capital of Kefalonia, the largest of the Ionian islands. Sights include: the ruins of the Venetian castle "Agios Georgios", the 17th century monastery "Agios Andreas" with interesting frescoes and the remnants of the ancient city of Krani, which was the island's capital in the Mycenean age. The main attraction of the islands are, however, the "Sea Mills", which are not far from the town. They are driven by sea-water surging along a channel cut through the rock and then disappearing into hidden underground passages. For many years where the water went was a mystery until scientists finally discovered that the water flows through caves below the island before re-emerging on the east coast of the island.

This Turkish port town was built on the ruins of the ancient Greek city of Halikarnassos. Archaeological finds are evidence of a history going back 5,000 years. The multi-cultural city was home to various civilisations and was repeatedly conquered. Bodrum was annexed to the Ottoman Empire in 1523 A.D., following the victory of Sultan Süleyman the Magnificent over Rhodes. Sights include: the amphitheatre, St. Peter's castle (built in 1495 by the Knights Hospitallers) and the Museum for Underwater Archaeology. The Mausoleum, which holds the tomb of King Mausolus, who died in 353 B.C., is considered to be one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Alexander the Great also reached as far as Bodrum. The historian Arianus reported the prolonged battles at Myndos Gate.
