1 Award-winning, expert-led SAILAWAY CRUISES 2018/19 WITH TWO NEW SAILAWAY CRUISES WINNER UK CRUISERS CHOICE 2017 Voyages to Antiquity Aegean Odyssey Best Small Ship: Shore Excursions SAILAWAYS SHORTER DURATION, LOWER- PRICED VTA CRUISES OUR BIGGEST EVER SAILAWAY SELECTION TASTER SAILAWAYS FROM JUST 995pp TWO NEW CRUISES INCLUDING OUR FIRST EVER WINTER SAILAWAY

2 WHAT ARE SAILAWAY CRUISES? cruises make the perfect introduction to the multi award-winning, culturally enriching Voyages to Antiquity experience. Shorter in duration and lower in price than the full holidays, they are ideal if time or budget is limited. There are two types of : 1. CRUISES WHICH DO NOT INCLUDE PRE- AND POST-CRUISE HOTEL STAYS (unless flight times demand) you simply fly out to your destination and sail away! Eliminating the hotel stays and overland tour elements can make a significant difference to the price, particularly for solo travellers as hotel single supplements tend to be much higher than cruise. 2. CRUISE SECTORS packaged with flights and appropriate hotel stays. The brand-new 22-day Ancient Wonders & Lands of Legend, for example, is a shorter version of one of our full winter 2018/19 cruises. For even greater choice, these s may feature options to extend your holiday in this case, a five-night overland tour of India s iconic Golden Triangle. s still include everything that set Voyages to Antiquity holidays apart the lecture programme from internationallyrenowned guest speakers, expertly-planned shore excursions in almost every port of call, international flights and transfers abroad, full board cruise accommodation, wine with dinner on board and gratuities for cabin and restaurant staff on board. And you still get to enjoy all the facilities of the 350-passenger Aegean Odyssey, from the choice of dining venues and comfortable lounges to the relaxing spa centre and well-stocked library. With prices from just 995, it all adds up to exceptional value for money. This biggest ever s selection invites appreciation of the ancient wonders of Greece, Egypt and Jordan, the artistic treasures of Italy, the colourful cultures of Span and India, and the fine wines of France and Portugal. In addition to undoubted icons of world travel such as Venice, Pisa, Rome, Luxor and Petra, discover lesser-known gems such as Trieste, Butrint, Lecce, Urbino, Muscat and Salalah. Voyages to Antiquity officially the Best Small Ships Cruise Line Here at Voyages to Antiquity, we were proud and delighted to be recognised as the Best Small Ships Cruise Line at the British Travel Awards in November 2017, especially so because these Oscars of the travel industry are 100% customer-voted. This prestigious award is a true endorsement of both the many benefits of small-ship cruising and the enjoyment of holidaying aboard the 350-passenger Aegean Odyssey, a classic cruise ship small enough to sail rivers and put in at the most characterful ports, yet large enough to offer a superb range of amenities. 2

Aegean Odyssey also makes her maiden visit to the attractive and enthralling tug-of-war city of Trieste, which has changed hands many times in its 2,000-year history.
