What's great about Izmir cruises?
One of Turkey's biggest hubs, Izmir is your gateway to Ephesus, a 2,000-year-old Roman city. It was here that one of the 7 Ancient Wonders of the World once stood – the Temple of Artemis. In Izmir itself, you’ll find a smart seafront that’s lined with cafés and fish restaurants.
• The exhibitions at the Izmir Archaeological Museum showcase the ancient artefacts uncovered in the local area, and include everything from ceramics to precious stones.
• Sample the local tipple in one of Sirince’s restaurants. This pretty hillside town is famous for its wine production, which includes a range of homemade fruit wines.
• Ephesus is one of the world’s best-preserved classical cities. Must-sees here include the Celsus Library and the 24,000-seater Great Theatre.
