“The tour guide met us as we got off the ship. She was friendly but seemed more focused on rushing us through the sites (not our request) to get us back on time in 4 hours with 2 hours to space before our cruise left port. That being said, the unscheduled visit to the sales-pitched carpet factory as the first stop, was unnecessary and wasted valuable time of 45 mins. Some spots like St. Johns basilica were therefore not possible. The drive to the sites were picturesque and I wanted to take that in but the guide kept wanting us to see maps of turkey and get a history lesson.…”
