Went to Ancient Ephesus that day. Tour guide was not so good. Very crowed that day and could not hear the guide explaining things. No time for shopping!

Istanbul, Turkey

Shoping at the Grand Bazzar! What an experience! Wish we could have had more time to do shopping and visiting sites.

Pros: Only having to unpack once in 12 days and booking a room with a balcony

Cons: To many people on this large ship, would go for smaller next time
