Very little is known of these people, in fact the name “Minoan” was given them by the archaeologist who rediscovered the site. Upon seeing the various bull frescoes, it was claimed that this was the legendary city of King Minos, home of the Minotaur and its labyrinth. South of Knossos, at the foot of Juchtas Mountain (the mountain range resembles the face of a sleeping man, thus called “Sleeping Zeus”), is the village of Archanes, well known since the Minoan period for its vineyards.

The different peoples who settled here left an important cultural imprint, whose influence still remains in the character of the city's people. This peninsula, right on the Andalusian Atlantic coast, has been able to preserve an important historical legacy - the result of its commercial importance - together with excellent beaches and an exquisite regional cuisine. The Costa de la Luz, divided between the provinces of Huelva and Cádiz, also offers a multitude of destinations combining culture and leisure. And, for nature lovers, there is nothing better than touring the Doñana National Park, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Jerez de la Frontera, well known for its wines, its horses and its flamenco, preserves a historic center that has been declared a historic artistic site. One of the noblest towns in Cádiz brings together the splendor of aristocratic palaces with the popular flavour of typically Andalusian houses. Features that are shown off every year at the celebration of the Horse Fair, declared of International Tourist Interest. This enormous offer of culture is enriched with the aromas of a regional cuisine in which the Denomination of Origin of Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Manzanilla-Sanlúcar de Barrameda is outstanding. A visit to one of the city's wine cellars will help travellers to get a deeper understanding of its winemaking tradition. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"s-64442da7-e7d6-40dd-bf64-f61dd41f4157\" class=\"shg-c \"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-wrapper\" data-multi=\"\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-heading\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-header\"\u003e \u003ch4 class=\"shogun-accordion-title\"\u003e Day 5: Seville – Málaga (B) \u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-icon shogun-icon-plus\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-body\"\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"s-54349bac-f1c6-4b74-b2b1-8418b0b72908\" class=\"shg-c \"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shg-rich-text shg-theme-text-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrive to the beach and Costa del Sol, crossing “the white tows” route and Ronda!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e19 inland towns and villages, each with its own history, although they all share common features: Alcalá del Valle, Algar, Algodonales, Arcos de la Frontera, Benaocaz, Bornos, El Bosque, El Gastor, Espera, Grazalema, Olvera, Prado del Rey, Puerto Serrano, Setenil de las Bodegas, Torre Alháquime, Ubrique, Villaluenga del Rosario, Villamartín and Zahara de la Sierra. The first thing that will strike you is how they look: everything is whitewashed, the streets and squares, walls and ceilings, churches, houses and mansions… The towns look like splashes of white paint scattered over the landscape, dominated by the rocky peaks of Sierra de Grazalema Nature Reserve, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe bright, intense light of Andalusia will accompany you on this journey among olive groves and forests of pine, holm oak, cork oak and Spanish fir, a native tree of these highlands.

It was an important cultural centre for many centuries, under the Moors and the Christians too, and nowadays it boasts a broad cultural and leisure programme.

Women head to this market to buy all they need (handicrafts etc.). Visit the enchanting Wadi Bani Khalid. Drive past the village with its endless date plantations to reach the magnificent wadi. The pools are cool, deep and absolutely stunning. Feel free to plunge in and experience the crystal-clear waters. At 3.00pm, arrival at the entrance of Wahiba sands. Meet the “camp representative” and take the “escort service” to the camp. The longitudinal dunes stretch 200km long and 100km wide until the Arabian Sea and have been home to the Bedouin for 7.000 years.

Despite some interesting old architecture, including a fort and watchtowers, this small town, Al Kamil is more commonly known as an important junction with Al Ashkharah Road and the Muscat–Sur Highway, punctuated by local-style cafes. It is something of a rarity in Oman, however, for being one of the few towns in the country surrounded by trees. Arrival at the coastal city of Sur. Visit the dhow factory to see the construction of traditional wooden boats, that vary in design and size. Thereafter take a photo opportunity at Ayjah lighthouse. Proceed to the visit of the Ras AI Jinz Turtle Reserve, world renowned for the nesting of the endangered green turtle, Chelonia mydas. Probably the most important nesting concentration in the Indian Ocean.

Famed for its old traditional villages surrounded by lush plantations of date and banana. Photo opportunity at Wadi Shab. Fresh water cascading from top of the mountains meets the briny sea water on its banks, creating an environmental diversity unique to this wadi and making it stand on a pedestal of its own when compared with the other wadis (valleys) in the Sultanate. Stop at Bimmah Sinkhole, a deep natural depression filled with water. The locals say that a meteor fell on this spot resulting in the natural depression and forming a small lake. At 6.00pm drop off your rental car at the hotel.

This hill town is encircled by 13th century walls and contains many stunning examples of both Gothic and Romanesque architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"s-4a5ba38a-7ecb-43c8-b41c-292a367fb707\" class=\"shg-c \"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-wrapper\" data-multi=\"\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-heading\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-header\"\u003e \u003ch4 class=\"shogun-accordion-title\"\u003e Day 6: The Orcia Valley \u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-icon shogun-icon-plus\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-body\"\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"s-c2202a75-d771-45df-bd83-e8c2e5888ab9\" class=\"shg-c \"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shg-rich-text shg-theme-text-content\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eToday begins with a guided tour of the historic wine cellars of Montepulciano, including a tasting of the Vino Nobile di Montepulciano.

Sites here including Pienza, the Chapel of Vitaleta, San Quirico d'Orcia, and Bagno Vignoni have been the setting for scenes in movies such as The Gladiator and The English Patient. Just outside San Quirico d'Orcia there is a remarkable stand of cypress trees that is the most photographed place in Tuscany.

It is worth getting to La Badia a Passignano, an abbey where Galileo Galilei taught, surrounded by an intense cultivation of vines and olive trees.

Japan is home of course to the famous shinkansen ‘bullet trains’ which can travel over 300 kilometres per hour (186 miles per hour) and you may travel on some of these. For all these reasons trains are used to cover longer distances in Japan. Your Itinerary includes a Japan Rail Pass, which will be provided to you at tour commencement and which you will use to board inter-city trains. As tourist numbers are increasing rapidly, the Central Japan Railway Company has implemented the advanced oversized baggage reservation to ensure the security, safety and convenience of all passengers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSightseeing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll sightseeing tours require a moderate amount of walking around historical \/ cultural sites.

For all these reasons trains are used to cover longer distances in Japan.

Japan is home of course to the famous shinkansen ‘bullet trains’ which can travel over 300 kilometres per hour (186 miles per hour) and you may travel on some of these. For all these reasons trains are used to cover longer distances in Japan. Your Small Group Journey includes a Japan Rail Pass, which will be provided to you at tour commencement and which you will use to board inter-city trains. As tourist numbers are increasing rapidly, the Central Japan Railway Company has implemented the advanced oversized baggage reservation to ensure the security, safety and convenience of all passengers.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSightseeing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll sightseeing tours require a moderate amount of walking around historical \/ cultural sites.

Class hotels offer the facilities you need to feel at home, even when you're away from it. In some provincial areas, facilities may be more limited. Where possible, hotels are chosen for local history, style, and charm, and always for location.\u003cbr\u003eDouble rooms can be requested however on occasions this may not be possible and a twin room will be provided.  \u003cbr\u003eHotel room sizes in Japan (especially single rooms) are relatively small by international standards.\u003cbr\u003eSome tours include a stay at a traditional 'ryokan' inn. In this style of accommodation, you will sleep on a futon mattress on a tatami mat floor, however you will still have basic private bathroom facilities.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDress Code\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is no strict dress code for visiting Japanese temples and shrines however modest\/conservative clothing (to show respect at a place of worship) is recommended.

It is strongly recommended that you travel with luggage with wheels and a handle for your comfort.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLuggage courier services are used because most Japanese trains (with the exceptions of the Narita Airport Express servicing Tokyo's Narita Airport, and the Haruka Express servicing Kansai Airport) do not have luggage compartments. Your day-by-day itinerary will note when your main piece of luggage is couriered to an advance destination. Please make sure to bring a smaller luggage bag for over-nighting on nights when you will be separate from your main piece of luggage.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRail\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRail travel is a significant feature of Japan Independent Tours. Japan has one of the most efficient and comfortable rail systems in the world. Trains run on time, almost all the time, and attendant service standards are immaculate. Japan is home of course to the famous shinkansen ‘bullet trains’ which can travel over 300 kilometres per hour (186 miles per hour) and you may travel on some of these. For all these reasons trains are used to cover longer distances in Japan. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSightseeing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll sightseeing tours require a moderate amount of walking around historical \/ cultural sites.

Having been ruled at various times by Ptolemies and Hellenistic dynasties who also ruled Egypt, followed by the Romans, Byzantines, a Venetian Dukes (granted Paros as part of a fiefdom by the Crusaders), and the Ottoman Turks, it was not until 1832 following the Greek War of Independence that Paros became part of the Kingdom of Greece.

Delphi is approximately two and a half hours from Athens. You will follow the national road north through the plains of Beotia and pass outside the town of Thebes. As you close in to your destination, the mountain of Parnassos towers over you. The site is at the foot of the mountain; the Pan-Hellenic sanctuary of Delphi, and it is here that you will start your walk. Passing by the Castalia Spring you will visit the archaeological site and view the monument of the Argive Kings, the treasury of the Athenians, the Athenian Stoa, the Polygonal Wall, the monument of Platea and the Temple of Apollo. The site is very large and there is a lot to see including the famous oracle where in ancient times people believed they would learn what their future held. Take in the views from the site, they are incredible – the setting is so impressive that in ancient times it was considered the navel of the world. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfter you walk around the site you will visit the museum.

Japan is home of course to the famous shinkansen ‘bullet trains’ which can travel over 300 kilometres per hour (186 miles per hour) and you may travel on some of these. For all these reasons trains are used to cover longer distances in Japan. Your Small Group Journey includes a Japan Rail Pass, which will be provided to you at tour commencement and which you will use to board inter-city trains.

Having been ruled at various times by Ptolemies and Hellenistic dynasties who also ruled Egypt, followed by the Romans, Byzantines, a Venetian Dukes (granted Paros as part of a fiefdom by the Crusaders), and the Ottoman Turks, it was not until 1832 following the Greek War of Independence that Paros became part of the Kingdom of Greece.

Having been ruled at various times by Ptolemies and Hellenistic dynasties who also ruled Egypt, followed by the Romans, Byzantines, a Venetian Dukes (granted Paros as part of a fiefdom by the Crusaders), and the Ottoman Turks, it was not until 1832 following the Greek War of Independence that Paros became part of the Kingdom of Greece.
