Here, you'll explore the ancient foundations of the city and take in its strategic importance throughout history.
We then proceed to the Agora of Smyrna, a well-preserved remnant of the Roman period, where you can walk among the ruins of one of the most important ancient commercial and political centers of the region.
Our walking tour continues through Kemeraltı Bazaar, one of Turkey’s largest and oldest open-air marketplaces. As we stroll through its lively lanes, we’ll pass by the Old Synagogue Street, fresh fish and vegetable markets, and arrive at Hisaronu Mosque, one of the city's significant Ottoman landmarks.
After a short break, we will visit Kızlarağası Hanı, an 18th-century Ottoman caravanserai, where you can browse unique local handicrafts, carpets, jewelry, and souvenirs.
Next, we’ll take a short walk to Konak Square to admire the iconic Izmir Clock Tower, the city's most recognizable symbol. You'll also enjoy free time to explore the seafront promenade nearby.
