A halal-friendly Mediterranean fairytale starting from Galataport to the white streets of Mykonos, olive trees of Crete, and the blue of Bodrum, which you can embark on with your family with peace of mind.
Aroya Cruise's Mediterranean adventure begins at Galataport, one of the most modern ports in the world. Before boarding the ship, you can watch the unique view of the Bosphorus and perform your travel prayer in the historical mosques of Karaköy (Kılıç Ali Pasha or Nusretiye). As the meeting point of East and West, Istanbul is the most meaningful start of this cultural trip. Bidding farewell to the city accompanied by the silhouette of minarets as the ship departs will leave deep traces in your soul.
The route extends to the pearls of the Aegean, the Greek islands. Although Mykonos is generally known for its nightlife, taking photos in the white streets (Chora) of the island and watching the windmills is a great daytime activity for Aroya guests. Crete (Chania/Souda) is a peaceful stop for families with its Venetian architecture and nature full of olive trees. In Rhodes, where the Ottoman heritage still lives, you can visit the Suleiman the Magnificent Mosque and taste the island's halal seafood. After your time in these ports, Aroya Cruise invites you to its 100% halal restaurants and comfortable environment on board.
One of the most beautiful stops of the journey is our own coasts. Bodrum and Marmaris welcome you with their unique nature where green meets blue. You can visit Bodrum Castle or take a boat tour in the bays of Marmaris covered with pine forests. These stops are places that feel 'like home' where you can shop without language problems, worship comfortably in mosques, and find familiar tastes. Approaching these ports from the sea with Aroya Cruise offers a fascinating perspective unlike seeing them from land.
Aroya Cruise's Mediterranean route departing from Istanbul transforms Greek Islands and Turkish coasts into a safe exploration for conservative families with its halal concept.
This route is not just about seeing new cities, but also experiencing 'Arabian' hospitality in the cool waters of the Aegean. On this journey extending from the history of Istanbul to the nature of Crete, you will explore world wonders with your family without missing prayer times or worrying about halal food. With Aroya Cruise, the Mediterranean is now a route 'of ours' for you too. Stay tuned to HalalWorld.com for early booking and family discounts.
