Rhodes, Greece

Very cute little port town, we didnt make it out of old town, we'd like to see more next time but time was short. Once again, eat off the beaten path, prices are high on the main strip.

Naples, Italy

Naples is a dirty gross city. Trash everywhere. Dont spend time there, go to pompeii and Herculeaum. Try to go to the amalfi coast, we didnt have time but heard it's beautiful. Wouldve like to see capri too but once again didnt have time.

Kusadasi (Ephesus), Turkey

very cute city, ephesus was suprisingly cool. Shopping can be overwhelming with the push people but it could be fun as well but I'd wait if you're going to istanbul, better quality and options but maybe not better prices? eat off the beaten path, tourist areas prices are higher

Piraeus (Athens), Greece

city is dirty and poluted. Sites were ok but it's hard when 3000 people only want to see the same thing. Also the weather made it miserable but that's not anyones fault. Dont bother with a taxi at the port, they're rude and aggressive, just get a "hop on, hop off" tour bus

Istanbul, Turkey

Couldve been better hallf the sites were closed one day and the other half closed the other day but no one told us about this so we didnt plan accordingly and missed some stuff. plan to spend at least half a day or more at the grand bazaar. Maybe take in a turkish bath, awkward at first but its an experience.
