Great private tour in Izmir City. Historical and Grand Bazaar - Our guide was great! We had a private 3 hour tour with a guide and a driver and both were amazing. We are grateful we did not go alone. Our guide started at the Grand Bazaar, when he got us samples of a breakfast treat, pomegranate juice, Turkish coffee and more (which we paid for). It was very large and very overwhelming. I would never do it alone! The Bazaar sells everything; clothing, wedding dresses, food, spices, fruit and nuts, plants, fresh seafood, vacuums, suitcases, and LOTS of gold and silver jewelry and more !! We also went to a mosque, and more. Our guide explained everything in detail and was funny as well. We enjoyed the tour. Great way to see Izmir City! But next time we would skip the bazaar and focus on more historical sites. We will try and get the same guide!
