Day 1
Only eighteen nautical miles and a matter of minutes separate Samos from a completely new world, the world of the East. We offer you a unique one day excursion to Kusadasi, the cosmopolitan town in Turkey with its famous bazaar. During your visit to Kusadasi you can join one of the optional trips to Ancient Ephesus, Izmir, or the traditional village of Sirince.
Kusadasi, which in the Turkish language means “?Island of the birds”?, takes its name from the small island found at the entrance to the port. It is one of the most visited towns in Turkey.
It impresses with the first class tourist facilities which by no means hide the strong eastern atmosphere which exists in every corner of the tour. During recent years there has been great development and now thousands of rooms are available in large tourist centre and the port is visited daily by a multitude of cruise ships and smaller boats.
Kusadasi is famous for its Market. A wide variety of leather goods, carpets, gold and alabaster jewelry, Arabian works of art, cotton goods and of course Turkish sweets and dried nuts are the main items to be found there. There are hundreds of small shops for every taste, and every pocket. Always remember to bargain for everything, it is expected. The large Bazaar is also impressive.
In the shops in Kusadasi you can pay for your shopping in Euros as well as other currencies. Credit cards are also accepted. Most of the shop keepers speak a little Greek and English so you should not have any problems while shopping.
Don’?t miss the opportunity to taste the exotic sweets and food of the area. There are many restaurants ready to satisfy even the most demanding visitors.
