Passports & Visas

So, you've decided to visit Greece and you need to know if you need a Visa and/or a Passport. Here is a list of links and information we've gathered for you, which will put you on the right track.

European Union

If you are a European Union citizen you do not need a Visa or a Passport in order to visit Greece. However you should always have your national ID card with you, in case you need to prove your identity to the local authorities. Driver's license, credit cards, tax cards etc are not accepted as proof of identity. If your country of origin is the U.K., Bulgaria, Ireland, Croatia, Cyprus or Romania, then showing your national ID card or passport is mandatory.

Rest Of The World

If you are a citizen of any country outside the E.U. then you definitely need a Passport. As for any Visa requirements, please go to the following link to check the Visa status of your country for traveling to Greece.

If you have booked our cruise offering then you probably already know you will be visiting Kusadasi, in order to go to Ephesus, which is in Turkey. Going to Kusadasi on a cruise ship does not require a Visa. However, you do need to have your passport with you, which will be held by the cruise ship's personnel for the duration of your visit to Turkey. If you do not have your passport with you then you will be asked to pay a small fee, which depends on your country of origin (20$ for U.S. citizens)
