16 days in Izmir Itinerary

The birthplace of Homer, the ancient port city of Izmir boasts a colorful heritage that includes traces of Greek, Armenian, and Jewish cultures.

Your itinerary includes some good beach time at Pirlanta Beach and Fame Beach. Step out of the city life by going to Ladies Beach and Fishing Charters & Tours. Explore Izmir's surroundings by going to Kusadasi (Silver Sands Beach, Downtown Beach, &more), Magnesia Antik Kenti (in Germencik) and Karaburun (Boyabagi & Incirlikoy (Akvaryum) Plaji). There's much more to do: pause for some serene contemplation at Basilica of St. Jonh, see the interesting displays at KEY Museum, wander the streets of Kemeralti Market, and kick back and relax at Sevgi Beach.
