Day 1 · Turkey

Kusadasi (Ephesus)

Embarkation

Depart 18:00

Kusadasi exists on cruise itineraries for one reason, and it is Ephesus, twenty minutes inland: a Roman city preserved well enough to walk down its main street past the library facade. The town itself is a shopping call. If you only book one excursion in the eastern Mediterranean, book this one.
