Review summary

I want to indicate that after 30/45 minutes later your ship docked to the Port.I highly recommend you to meet ur guides or drivers , So, you might beat the crowds and hot weather in order to have a better experience during your Tours or travellings around the city.

Ports of call

Piraeus (Athens), Greece

5 out of 5
A very busy port. Easy to get through both getting of ship and boarding. If you don't want to wait long hours in the queue at the acropolis. I definitely recommend you to take a skip-the-line tour. Even if you think that the hop on and hop off buses tours are more beneficial due to their price, they will definitely not give you a special tour interest and information.We have booked private tour for my family. https://www.athens-walks.com/

Kusadasi (Ephesus), Turkey

5 out of 5
We used Iglesias Tour Turkey ( info@bestturkeytour.com )for a private tour. It was well worth it! Very reasonably priced. We saw Mary’s House, Ephesus, Basilica of St. John, and what’s left of the Temple of Artemis. We had a fabulous traditional Turkish meal that was farm to table for $10/person and went to a couple of stores. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. ( you can ask for Fatima )Best of all, we could spend as little or as much time in each place as we wanted (within our port time there). I would highly recommend private tours everywhere. They are comparably priced too Ship tours and they will get you back on time. They rely on it for their business to work.

Istanbul, Turkey

5 out of 5
Galataport sits where the Golden Horn, Sea of Marmara and Bosphorus meet on the European shore. It is reachable via ferry from the Asian side or the Golden Horn, the tramway, buses taxi or metro.We had traveled city own our own before the big bus tours and private group. So skip the line Easily . It was a big and busy city . Do not miss Hagia Sophia-Blue Mosque and Palaces!

Rhodes, Greece

4 out of 5
harbour is the main harbour on Rhodos island where there is a castle and many shops within the walking area as well as many restaurants to choose from. We booked private BEST OF RHODOS ISLAND TOUR from local agency again. whats app:+69 34596990 email: rhodes_privatetours@yahoo.com

Santorini, Greece

3 out of 5
Very busy and very messy! No clear sign board for directions! Santorini is easy to do on your own they built the cable car to save the donkeys from carrying people up a very steep hill for the donkeys sake either take the cable car or take a boat trip to Oia and a bus back to Fira then the cable car or walk back down to the harbour costs about $30 this year

Mykonos, Greece

5 out of 5
Beautiful port. It is and looks cleaner, beautiful views and better prices in souvenirs. Food and drinks is more less the same. We don't need a tour. The town is fully walkable. Be sure to see Little Venice and its windmills. It's a very cute area.

Volos, Greece
