An interesting place. Study the map in advance. There are a lot of interesting things from history and the present. There are "small" cute monuments)). If you need to go shopping, go a little to the left from the port (5-10 minutes) and find the 6th minibus stop on the map. For 20 lira per person and about 20-25 minutes of a leisurely drive, you will get to the Migros shopping center (you can see from the road and there is a stop there) and opposite there are quite decent shopping pavilions with goods of various brands (prices are approximately Moscow October 2024)). The main thing is not to leave the big market ahead of time (we haven't been there, I can't add anything). Ask the locals for the bus stop number 6, there is no stopping point there (say the word "port")))) and they will show you))) 👌
During the cruise, there was a stop in Kusadasi. It's nice to walk along the coast. The port is clean, cozy, and beautiful. There are a lot of shops with goods for every taste and purse.
A very beautiful view of the city and the port from the ship. The port itself is small, there are many restaurants with almost exorbitant prices, more expensive than in Istanbul in Galatoport. Several small shopping malls, such as the bazaar and the grand bazaar. A small old fortress. It is worth stopping and going ashore.

A great port, a very well-developed passenger infrastructure - there is everything for every taste. A good dutik with real prices, without mega-discounts.
There are a lot of different shops and catering facilities on the station forecourt.
An excellent port, a small cozy town hosting cruise liners.... Cool! The city of Ephesus with all its sights is 20 minutes by car! A great opportunity to get acquainted with world history!
A very friendly Turkish resort town. The city itself is not rich in historical objects, but the ancient city of Ephesus is a 30-minute drive away, where you must definitely visit.

A pleasant place for walking. Even in the midday heat, there is a place to hide in the shade and admire the huge liners and surf
A beautiful city and port. Beautiful views, delicious food. I liked shopping too. I recommend climbing the mountain. The distance is approximately 900 meters to the peak. A great view opens.
A beautiful port. Huge liners enter it. There is a market near it, but the local Turks do not like it when you price and do not buy anything. Therefore, sometimes you do not want to approach the tents.
The port is very busy in the summer months, it has expert staff, the long queues melt quickly. The interior has sufficient equipment and spaciousness, you reach the target quickly with the guidance signs

Unfortunately, it is not suitable for boarding tourists with luggage . There is no place to wait for boarding a marine liner. The port was the starting point of the cruise.The crowd. Plus, there is a free toilet)))
A good port, there are many shops (although the price is more expensive than in Europe), a good dutifry and prices for some goods are lower than in other dutiks. There are a lot of intrusive sellers and taxi drivers in the port.
A place where enterprising Turks sell carpets, clothes and all sorts of souvenirs at exorbitant prices. Before the arrival of the cruise ship, a sign is posted that today and only for passengers of this cruise operator there is a 40% discount. Tomorrow they will be transferred to another one).
Not the best and most convenient terminal to be honest
An abundance of shops, especially jewelry, very rich jewelry for fabulous money, basically everyone goes on an excursion to the Andromeda temple, and so this is a port with a market of things
In general, Kusadasi left a very pleasant impression. The city itself is beautiful, there are wonderful places, bars, restaurants, service. Yes, and the attitude towards us was very friendly.
The port is surrounded on all three sides by endless rows of shops with souvenirs and consumer goods. It is absolutely impossible to pass by and not buy some nonsense.
A fairly large seaport that accepts ocean cruise liners with several thousand passengers on board. After the arrival of the next "city on the water": the human sea splashes out into the port shops, fish restaurants and the local market. It is better to avoid such places even during mooring, because prices instantly skyrocket, since the contingent on these ships is quite rich, and the Turks are an enterprising people) But in general, the place is quite interesting. If you watch from the side...
It has undergone major changes in 2019. There are many cozy cafes and restaurants with a wide price range. Shops with fake branded goods , but of excellent quality (bags , clothes, watches, jewelry and jewelry). Spoiler: the prices are sooo high, everything is the same when leaving the port will cost much cheaper (do not forget to bargain). The territory of the port is gentrified, there are many flowers , a giant chair on which you can take pictures. Security guards with a metal detector and a bag scanner at the entrance . This place is worth a visit, cafes and restaurants offer wonderful views of the mountain with colored houses, the statue of Ataturk and the inscription Kusadasi in the style of the Hollywood inscription.
