We recently returned from a Celebrity Beyond cruise that stopped in Kusadasi. I highly recommend the private tour guide, Levant Solmaz. I posted on our roll call to find 5 other couples to join us. We had a wonderful tour of the Ephesus ruins and Mary's house. He has other options for tours and lunch and can work with your group depending on how much time you have in port. Levant was very responsive in our communications before our trip and was waiting for us when we came off the ship. He had a driver and a brand new Mercedes van, that very comfortably sat the 12 of us. We paid him at the end of the tour. levent.slmz@gmail.com. https://leventsolmaz.com

I definitely recommend booking with ItalyTours.eu! We just returned from a 12 night Med cruise. I booked 2 tours with Italytours.eu - a tour to Mt Etna and Taormina and the Amalfi coast from the port of Naples. A few weeks before we sailed, Celebrity changed our port from Messina to Palermo. I contacted ItalyTours and they rescheduled us to Palermo. We then ended up missing the Palermo port due to weather. We exchanged emails and I was reimbursed promptly. At our Naples stop, Vinny was waiting for us at the gate. He was fun to be with and an excellent driver - which you definitely want driving the narrow road connecting the villages of Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. It was a full day, and time was made for a sea side lunch under vines of lemon trees. Compared to other offerings this tour was very reasonably priced. The van was comfortable, but not a new luxury vehicle, so if this is important to you, you may want to ask about it before booking.

Just seeing this now, thanks so much for posting the link to the pic! Now we know what to expect and I don’t think it will bother us. 😀

Looks like mixed reviews for this company that is recommended by *****. Has anyone done The Antiguan Experience?

Thanks everyone, we decided to go with 8206. Since the room numbers are different on the beyond it’s too hard to tell exactly what you would see on the 6th floor obstructed view cabins. I read one very critical review of the cabins in this location, but that probably means most didn’t think the jut out and the magic carpet movement was such a big deal.

Hi, Has anyone had an obstructed view cabin on the port side on deck 6 of Beyond? The other cabin I'm considering is 8206 (a similar view would be in 8226). The rooms on deck 8 say 15% obstructed by balconies that jut out. The Magic carpet also is in this area. How disruptive is that? Thanks for the help! The ship is so new and I'm not able to find any reviews of these rooms online yet.
