Izmir City Tour Programme Your full-day Izmir city tour begins with pickup from your cruise terminal, hotel or airport. The day starts at Konak Square, home to the elegant Izmir Clock Tower, a timeless symbol of the city standing proudly since 1901. You then visit the Historical Elevator (Tarihi Asansör), a remarkable structure built in 1907 to connect two parts of the city separated by steep cliffs, offering sweeping views over the bay. The route continues through Kızlarağası Han, an 18th-century Ottoman caravanserai surrounded by stone arches and traditional shops. After free time for lunch around Konak Square (with guide recommendations), the afternoon explores Kemeraltı Market, one of the oldest continuously active open-air markets in the world, and ends at the Agora Open Air Museum with its ancient Roman columns, arches and pathways. You are then dropped off at your original pickup point.

It was important for us to have a guide who spoke Russian, and Ender was wonderful. He explained every detail at Dolmabahce Palace. The Princes Islands day trip was a beautiful break from the busy city.
Our guide Ender was incredibly knowledgeable about Turkish history. The hot-air balloon ride at sunrise in Cappadocia was the highlight of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized — from airport pick-up to the last d...
Ender was our Italian-speaking guide and we felt like family. He took us to local spots tourists never see. The hotel choice in Sultanahmet was perfect for walking everywhere.
