Who is it for?

- Congress and business guests
- Cruise passengers
Konak, Kemeraltı, the Agora and Kordon are close to one another, but during the day city traffic, walking distances and parking can slow the programme down. On this route, the car drops you at the entrance to the walking areas and collects you again at the exit.
Because opening hours of archaeological sites and museums can change, we recommend checking current information from official sources before visiting places such as the Agora.
