Turkey and Greece Package 2027 from Brazil: 15-Day Route, Prices

You can do Turkey and Greece in a single trip, and 15 days is the length that works: Istanbul, Cappadocia and Ephesus on the Turkish side, then Athens and Santorini on the Greek side. Our Aegean Legends package, Turkey and Greece in 15 days from $4200 per person, already includes 14 nights in hotels with breakfast, domestic flights within Turkey, the leg from Turkey to Athens and the ferry to Santorini. The international flight from Brazil is up to you. The details of each stage are on the page for our Greece and Turkey tour 2027.

We are a licensed agency in Istanbul and run tours in the city every day. Adding Greece is the request we hear most often from Brazilians who have already decided to cross the Atlantic. Anyone who would rather stay in Turkey alone will find shorter routes among our Turkey tour packages.

At a glance

What does the Turkey and Greece package 2027 include?

The package takes care of the most tiresome part of combining two countries: the logistics between them. There are 14 nights in mid-range hotels from our selection, always confirmed by availability and with your approval, with breakfast every day. Within Turkey the long distances are covered by air rather than by lengthy coach rides.

The crossing from Turkey to Greece is included too. The package provides a flight or ferry from Turkey to Athens, and the mode of transport is agreed with you at booking, depending on the time of year. From Athens to Santorini the leg is by ferry, also included. All transfers between airport, port and hotel are covered, as are the guided tours and the entrance fees to the sites listed in the programme.

The international flight, lunches and dinners, tips for guides and drivers and personal expenses are not included. The balloon flight in Cappadocia is optional and paid separately.

What is the 15-day Turkey and Greece itinerary?

The route follows a logical line from north to south and east to west, with no doubling back. It starts in Istanbul, the city between Europe and Asia, with Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapı Palace and the Bosphorus.

From the city a domestic flight takes you to Cappadocia, in central Anatolia. This is the land of fairy chimneys, valleys of volcanic stone and churches carved into the rock. Many people book the sunrise balloon flight here, which is not included in the package but can be added.

The third stage is the Turkish Aegean coast, around Ephesus. The ancient city is one of the best preserved in the Mediterranean, with the Library of Celsus, the great theatre and its marble streets. From there the route crosses to Greece: Athens, with the Acropolis and the Parthenon, and finally Santorini, with its white houses clinging to the rim of the volcanic caldera.

If you want to understand how much time each Turkish city needs, our 10-day Turkey itinerary with costs shows the same Istanbul, Cappadocia and Ephesus sequence at a gentler pace.

How far apart are Turkey and Greece, and how do you get from one to the other?

Turkey and Greece are neighbours. Istanbul to Athens is about 550 km in a straight line, and several Greek islands sit just a few kilometres off the Turkish coast. In practice there are two ways across.

The quickest is by air. The flight between Istanbul and Athens takes about 1h15 to 1h30, which lets you leave one country in the morning and have lunch in the other. The other option is the ferries linking the Turkish Aegean coast with the nearby Greek islands: Kuşadası–Samos, Bodrum–Kos and Çeşme–Chios. These lines run mainly in season, so always check the timetables before planning the route on your own.

If you are still choosing between the two countries rather than thinking of combining them, our comparison Turkey or Greece for your holiday helps you weigh up beaches, culture, food and budget.

Do Brazilians need a visa for Turkey and Greece?

Not for tourism. Holders of a Brazilian passport can enter Turkey without a visa for stays of up to 90 days within any 180-day period, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Türkiye. Greece is part of the Schengen Area, and Brazilians can also enter without a visa for up to 90 days in 180.

The two counts are separate. Days in Turkey do not count towards the Schengen limit, and days in Greece do not count towards the Turkish one.

The point to watch is ETIAS, the electronic travel authorisation the European Union will require from visa-exempt travellers, Brazilians included. It is not yet in force. Its launch is now expected in 2027, with an expected fee of 20 euros. Before you travel, check the status on the official European Union ETIAS website, because the date has already moved more than once.

Turkey and Greece or Turkey only: which package should you choose?

With 15 days, the choice is between two countries with less time in each or a single country seen at a calmer pace. The combined package costs from $4200 per person. For the same number of days, our Best of Turkey 15-day package, from $3980, stays entirely in Turkey and adds Pamukkale and the Antalya coast, with lunch on tour days. Those with less holiday can look at the Grand Turkey 10-day package, from $2800, with Istanbul, Cappadocia, Ephesus and Pamukkale.

If it is your first time in Europe and the Mediterranean and Greece has been on your list for years, the combined trip makes sense, because the flight from Brazil is already paid for. If you want Turkish beaches, more days in Cappadocia or a less hurried pace, stay in Turkey only. Anyone thinking of pairing Turkey with another destination can also read our 12-day Turkey and Egypt itinerary.

Then there is the question of how to travel. A package such as Aegean Legends delivers hotels, flights, transfers and tours already tied together, at a fixed price in dollars. The alternative is to plan the trip yourself and hire a private guide only on some days, in Istanbul for example. That gives more freedom, but you handle domestic flights, ferries and timetables yourself. For families and groups of friends, our article on a group trip to Turkey from Argentina shows how the numbers change when several people travel together, and the logic holds for anyone leaving from Brazil.

What this means for your trip

Start with the flight. Turkish Airlines flies direct from Guarulhos, in São Paulo, to Istanbul, in about 12 to 13 hours. Check the current schedules when you buy, because they change with the season. Travellers from Rio usually connect in São Paulo or another city. The international flight is not included in the package, but we can fit the start of the trip around whatever date you manage to get.

Next, choose the month. April to June and September to October are the best times: good temperatures for walking around Ephesus and the Acropolis, and the sea already pleasant in Santorini. In July and August Santorini is crowded and more expensive.

Finally, payment. Prices are in dollars, as on our website, and Brazilians usually pay by card. If Greece does not fit the budget right now, our Turkey tour packages start with much shorter routes, and Greece can wait for next time.
