Can I do my own trips from Cesme and go to Turkey ruins on our own?

[NBJ]

I don't want to do the ship excursions particularly, so is it safe to go to Ephesus on our own.

 

Also how safe is it to go the Turkey ruins on our own.

 

Thanks

Safe from what ? if you are referring to terrorist attacks in Turkey these are well away from Cesme and when it comes to terrorism there is absolutley no safety in numbers especially when those numbers consist of UK tourists !

We went to Cesme a couple of weeks ago. A lovely little port. 15 minutes easy walk into the town where there is a small castle. Worth going in as it's only 8 TL entry fee. Lots of steps but the views are really good. You can walk along the seafront where there are restaurants and a tiny beach at the end, or walk through the town where there are cafes and shops. The locals kept asking how many people on the ship, they looked desperate for trade.
