We are going in June on the Seaborn Odessy. Has anyone else decided to go from Istanbul to Venice? We are second time Seaborn cruisers and really love it!

Wish it was me, we did it last year and it was fabulous. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

We did Venice to Istanbul - fantastic!

Istanbul to Venice was wonderful. Be sure to spend a few days in Istanbul with a guide.

doing that itinerary in May. Did it the other direction in 08. Loved it.

See if there's a roll call for your cruise in the roll call board to find others traveling with you. If not start one.

Thanks all for your comments. We just returned from a Seaborn from Barcelona to Athens and Loved it! I am anxious for someone else on the June cruise to connect.

Just wonderful. If not too late, I recommend a stay for a bit at either end (two or three nights should be sufficient). And how fortunate you will be that the summer crowds are gone.

This is also a cruise we are looking at for 2015 (Istanbul - Venice). We are just trying to get an understanding of the average cost (...if there is a such a thing) for day trips / excursions in the various ports on this cruise. I can find details of the options available on the cruise line website, but not the cost. Please don't take too much time on a day-by-day run down - for example what price for a 3 to 4 hour walking tour. Are we looking at $100 a day .. $500 a day ... or somewhere in between ?? Any advice will be most appreciated.

Of course the price depends on the supplier, certainly on their location, but we've found that most SB walking tours of 3-4 hours come in just under $100 per person.
