Only local ferries from Tr for some Greek islands. And then Greek ferries for mainland. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Might be hard to figure it out then. I did find a route from Greece to Rhodes but nothing from rhodes to Turkey
Not sure if there is a schedule on net for those routes. I will try tomorrow, to find something 4 u. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Our company will soon intruduce a new Taxi service from Rhodes to Marmaris. Starting date is March 30, 2011 have a look here and here
There are ferries from Turkey to Lesvos, Chios and Rhodes. Search for it. For example : http://www.lesvos.co.uk/turkey.htm
When do you want to travel? Usually the schedule is "on the air" around May. You can make a phonecal and ask. You can also check here : http://www.miniotis.gr/default.asp and here : http://www.feribot.net/feribot/?lang=en
Here's a map that I found, might give you some info as to where to look. http://ferries-turkey.com/images/pics-maps/route-maps/800/ferry-network-800.png Main site with schedules is here: http://ferries-turkey.com/ferry-routes/domestic-greece/greece-domestic-main-en.html Seems the difficulty is that ferries from Turkey to the islands are local Turkish ferries and their info isn't set up to combine with Greek ferries. Planning a trip there in July myself.
Might be helpful, if you specify from where to where (cities or islands). I've used a small ferry from Lesvos GR to Dikili TR. This site: www.ferrylines.com at least used to have some nice info.
2001 I travelled from Turkey to Greece with minivan. Of course my information is old, but should give a rough idea what routes to look for. We couldn't find any other routes then. I had to take 4 different ferries to get there: Bodrum-Kos (ca 1 hour) Kos-Rhodes (few hours) Rhodes-Crete (6-8hours) Crete-Athens (one night) Marmaris-Rhodes line does exist too, but only 1 ferry in a week or 2. Those routes I used were serviced at least daily. It still took almost a week to complete - 1 trip a day. But on the other hand it gave us an opportunity to visit all those islands. If you're in a hurry, Greece and Turkey have a common border too, it should be possible to travel from Athens to Istanbul in 1-2 (long) days (ca 1000km).
Did you check that website? According to them, there seem to be frequent ferry services from Piraeus (Athens) to for example the Greek island of Chios, from where it´d be a short boat ride to Cesme, Turkey (west from Izmir), or going the other way should be equally doable. Haven´t done that route myself, though.
Johnny: Pecha72 gave you this useful link http://www.ferrylines.com/ Here you can find all ferry routes from Greek mainland to island, and from Greek island to Turkey mainland. I'm planning a ride to Turkey to, and I've looked for a directly rout from Greek to Turkey... but it doesn't exist at the moment.
