Experience some of the stunning destinations associated with Homer’s legendary stories with British Airways Holiday’s collection of luxury properties across Greece and Turkeyto experience some of the destinations that are associated with Homer’s legendary stories
Unless you’ve been living under (or, in the event of a Cyclops, IN) a rock, Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey film is a hot topic this summer. Following the film’s recent July release, British Airways Holidays has seen a surge in interest in Greece and Turkey, with both destinations connected to Homer’s epic. Turkey and Greece have seen a 21% and 16% rise in searches, respectively (over the last 40 days vs this period last year).
If you’re keen to live out your own adventure (no island wars or witches required) then Halkidiki, Santorini, Kalamata and Fethiye all offer readers the chance to experience some of the destinations that are associated with Homer’s legendary stories.
