Would love for anyone who can help me figure this out. I have tried but can't seem to identify it.

Booked a mystery trip. Here are the details I know:

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Historic ruins
  • Bustling plazas
  • Unforgettable sites

Get ready for an exciting trip to a stunning destination that perfectly mixes fascinating history with contemporary cool.

We've carefully matched you with a gorgeous coastal city with a significant history. Boasting an abundance of awe-inspiring UNESCO sites, this place should be on everyone's bucket list. You'll get to know the city best by walking its cobbled lanes, you're sure to stumble upon many mesmerizing views along the way!

In contrast to its rich history, the city also has a distinctly modern buzz. As you wander its streets, keep an eye out for bursts of art and creativity around most corners. Between its youthful energy and deep historical roots, there's something for everyone in this special place!

And come prepared to eat! We're not exaggerating when we say this country is a culinary superpower. The traditional cuisine is fresh, flavorful and tasty. We've already picked out some amazing places for you to try!

Archeologist's dream, island-hopping boat trip visiting three gorgeous islands, UNESCO world heritage site where you'll journey through history, guided trip to the remnants of a temple shrouded in mystery, day trip to a picturesque coastal town and it's* *impressive archeological site. After a day of discovery, you'll have the option to cool off with a swim in the ocean!

Why even bother booking a mystery trip and then asking the internet where you're going?! Is the surprise not the whole point?

Edited

Part of the fun is speculating, surely ?

Naples (with bells on)

It's my favourite city but not for everyone. Ticks your boxes, though, if you include Pompeii.

That would have been my guess

Which ocean I you supposed to swim in in Greece? I can't think of any European country that meets all the requirements.

Seas are features of oceans. If you swim in a sea you are swimming in the ocean
