HMS Agamemnon c Armistice with Ottoman Empire signed on board 30 October 1918, Mudros Harbour. (Torpedo nets attached to oars ). Source: Library of Congress. HMS Agamemnon Memorial East Mudros Lemnos. This voyage commemorates the end of the First World War. Weeks before the Armistice with Germany the guns stopped on the largely forgotten fronts in the Balkans and Palestine, bringing the war with Bulgaria and the Otttoman Empire to an end. It was here that the survivors could start to think about a life without the War. Between eight and nine million servicemen died during the First World War but double that number, between eighteen and twenty million, were casualties. It was a huge public health disaster and the communities dealing with it were exhausted personally and materially by the effort of four years at war. In one sense the War did not end tidily, because a new struggle started, the struggle to make some sense of what had happened. This voyage in the Aegean remembers the survivors, particularly the doctors and nurses who returned to Australia and New Zealand where, as military historian Chris Pugsley put it, people did not have any real understanding of what they had been through. Nor could they tell them it was an age when gentlemen did not tell women of lice, fl ies and dysentery, and of men dying in agony... Our journey across the Aegean will give participants much to refl ect on, as many of those Anzacs had in the timeless setting of the Aegean, sailing amongst the islands where our civilization began.

3 Eptapyrgio Castle - Thessaloniki. Photo: Andrew Batchelor. Delos Crete Mykonos Pergamon beginning of the end of the First World War. The Electra Palace is the base for our exploration of Thessaloniki and the Macedonian or Salonika Front. Meet your fellow travellers tonight over dinner and hear of our plans for tomorrow. DAY 2: Thessaloniki the Salonika Front (B, L, D) For the people of Salonika, as the city was called in 1915, the First World War was a continuation of the the First and Second Balkan Wars (1912, 1913). Salonika had become part of Greece only in British and French troops arrived there in October 1915 to safe-guard the strategic port of Salonika and maintain a front line after the Serb Army was routed by Bulgarian troops. Australians and New Zealanders were part of the medical services on this Front. Today we travel by bus to the 1915 Front Line. A century ago there was no road; mules evacutaed the casualties to hospitals in and around Salonika. Accompanied by local historians and our own guides we look at the mountainous terrain the troops had to defend in this largely overlooked campaign. Our day will focus on Diorani, on Lake Dioran, now the border with Macedonia. We visit the nearby Dioran Monument and have a lunch stop at a local taverna. The guns stopped here after the Armistice of Salonika was signed with Bulgaria on 29 September The centenary will be commemorated in 2018 at the Dioran Memorial and in Skjope, the capital of Macedonia. OUR ITINERARY: DAY 1: Arrive Thessaloniki (D) Thessaloniki is the second city of Greece and has been a vibrant cultural and trade centre through two millienia, successively being part of the Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman Empires. A disastrous fire destroyed much of the historic lower town in 1917 and what we see today is a relatively modern city rebuilt with straight streets and a sweeping seaside corniche. It has a strategic position on the northern shores of the Thermaic Gulf with a spectacular mountain backdrop, a fitting place to start our journey to commemorate the DAY 3: Thessaloniki - Embark Panorama II (B, L, D) We start the day in Thessaloniki visiting the Mikra Commonwealth War Cemetery. Here we remember the New Zealand Hospital, the first Allied Hospital sent to Salonika and the Australian nurses who worked in Salonika s Military Hospitals caring for thousands of malaria casualties. Margaret Rogers from the Marquette and Gertrude Munro of Ballarat are buried here. We visit some of the historic sites in the city like the White Tower, Saint Dimitrios Church, the Archaeological Museum and the Lembet Road Cemetery. At Lembet Road as well as more Commonwealth graves there are the graves of hundreds of wildearth-travel.com

Photo: Andrew Batchelor. the Italian, Serb and French troops reminding us of the number of nations fighting in this Front. This afternoon we board our ship the Panorama II in the historic port of Thessaloniki. Take the opportunity to familiarise yourself with the vessel and settle into your home for the coming journey. Later this evening we will pass the site of the wreck of the torpedoed Marquette and salute the wreck with a wreath. DAY 4: Lemnos Mudros (B, L, D) Today we sail into this huge harbour captured in 1912 by the Greek Navy from the Turks. The Anzacs assembled and trained here for the April landings at Gallipoli. Mudros was the Navy s headquarters for shipping to and from the Gallipoli peninsula. British, French, Canadian and Australian military hospitals were sited around the shores of the harbour. With its submarine nets it was a a safe haven for the Allied Fleet throughout the War. Panorama II will anchor just as the naval vessels did a century ago. We will land from the ship s tenders, the way the injured arrived from the battles of Lone Pine and Chanuk Bair in Today we remember particularly the Third Australian General Hospital sited on what was then known as Turks Head. We will have a reception in the village of Portianos, visiting their cemetary before traveling past the modern airport to Mudros, the village on the eastern side of the harbour, still largely unchanged since After visiting the Mudros Cemetary we return to Panorama II to watch the famed sunset and reflect on the vista of the surrounding hills. This was the backdrop for the Armistice of Mudros signed on board HMS Agamemnon on 30 October 1918 ending the fighting with the Ottoman Turks. DAY 5: Lemnos Myrina (B, L, D) Overnight the Panorama II will reposition to be berthed in the port of Myrina, the largest town and administrative centre of Lemnos, known as Kastro in We spend the morning exploring the ancient history of Lemnos, visiting the amphitheatre of Hephaestia which dates from 1000 B.C. Later we visit the baths at Therma, these therapeutic springs have a history dating back to Homer s age; according to myth it was here that the god Ifestos was brought to heal his wounds after falling from Olympus. Thyrma was very popular too with the troops on Lemnos in There will also be time to explore the town of Myrina independently and for the energetic, there is the climb to the castle above the town. We plan to host a lunch aboard Panorama II for the people of Lemnos who made the ships visit to Mudros Harbour possible. DAY 6: Gallipoli, Turkey (B, L, D) This morning we begin the day early as Panorama II joins the line of ships to be piloted through the Dardanelles. Join our historians on deck as we sail past the islands of Gokeada and Bozca, now Turkish but as Imbros and Tenedos they played a large part in the Gallipoli Campaign. The monuments to the Battle for Gallipoli on Cape Helles at the mouth of the Dardanells are clearly visible. We then proceed to dock in the port city of Canakkale. Here our tour of the Gallipoli Peninsula starts with the ferry across the Dardanelles to the town of Ercebat. We have a full day of touring by bus planned for the peninsula, with a particular focus on what is now known as Anzac Cove - the beaches where the ANZAC casualties were evacuated. DAY 7: Pergamon, Turkey (B, L, D) This morning we are at sea sailing across the Aegean, passing the island of Lesbos as we make our way to the small scenic port of Dikili. It was near here that the Scottish author Compton Mackenzie landed after rowing across from Lesbos while on active service during the Gallipoli campaign. Today we venture inland to the ancient city of Pergamon, a strategic political and military centre through the ages. Pergamon is famed for its Acropolis which we will visit before making our way the short distance to the Sanctuary of Asclepius, info@wildearth-travel.com
5 Explore the alleyways of Mykonos. also known as the Asclepium. The most famous doctor of the Roman Empire and personal physician to Marcus Aurelius, Galen, worked here for many years. Patients would travel from around the Roman world to bathe in the waters of the sacred spring, seeking cures for their ailments. We delve into this ancient world, learning more from local experts and enjoying the remaining grand architecture of the Roman Empire. DAY 8: Delos & Mykonos (B, L, D) Lying at the heart of the Cyclades and the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis Delos was at the centre of the ancient Greek world and today is one of the most important mythological, historical and archaeological sites in Greece. We venture ashore this morning to marvel at the ancient Greek architecture and the sheer scale of the society that once called the island home. Together with local guides we explore the remains of what was an exceptionally vibrant society and learn about recent archaeological investigations and finds. This afternoon Panorama II sails the short distance across the Mykonos where there is free time to explore the beautiful village and surrounding scenery. DAY 9: Crete (B, L, D) We arrive this morning in Rethymnon on the island of Crete, from here we will explore the world renowned scenery of this spectacular island and learn more about its fascinating history. It has particular meaning for Australians and New Zealanders because of the Battle for Crete in May The Allied Commander on Crete was General Sir Bernard Fryberg, a New Zealand dentist who was awarded the DSO at Gallipoli for swimming ashore to light decoy fires. After Crete he went on to victory in North Africa before becoming Governor General of New Zealand in Panorama II sails for Athens this evening and we enjoy a Gala Farewell dinner with the Captain, Officers and guest speakers.
