MUST DO

Micah_E, Oct 2024
This was hands down one of the coolest excursions I’ve ever experienced in all my travels. The tour was an incredible immersion into Turkish culture, and the sheer amount of delicious food provided was amazing. We visited several villages, each with phenomenal restaurants serving authentic Turkish cuisine, giving us a true taste of the local culture. At the end of the tour, we even had the option to visit a leather factory outlet. It’s worth noting that the prices there were significantly higher compared to the shops near the cruise port, even though the quality seemed similar. We were joined by another couple from our ship whom we had never met before, and it was a great opportunity to connect and share this wonderful experience with them. They seemed to enjoy it just as much as we did. Our tour guide was absolutely fantastic. He was the best I’ve ever had. He provided just the right amount of information without it ever feeling overwhelming. His insights and friendly approach made the tour even more enjoyable. This experience has definitely made me want to return to Turkey, and I would happily do this tour again. It was an unforgettable day, and I highly recommend it!

Delicious, amazing

Our tour guide Bilal was amazing! He was friendly and brought us to 3 amazing restaurants as well as a carpet making school and a village. He provided information on food and culture while eating and traveling to the various locations. The travel van was nice and not too far but it was a great experience outside of the touristy cruise port. The food was absolutely delicious!!

The food was excellent. Bilal, the guide, was even better.

We had an extra day in Kusadasi and wanted to explore non-historical sites. This tour was perfect for us. We enjoyed the knowledge that Bilal shared with us as he took us to terrific restaurants. The breakfast layout was so good, I could have stayed there all day. But no, we then went to Sirince for some Turkish tea and a walk around the quaint village. The food didn't end, nor did the tour. We ended up in Selcuk for our final lunch and baklava. We thoroughly enjoyed our conversations with Bilal. Highly recommend this adventure! Don't forget to ask for Bilal.
