Creator's Key Takeaways
We are again getting off on sort of high alert getting everything nice and safe zip pockets and again being aware of pickpockets and being aware of all the hard sell and everything that's going to be going on.
We got it down to 90 which I don't know still is a good deal or not but uh I just want to get going sort of things.
Must say I'm not exactly blown away. Not compared to Athens and Rome and places.
That has got to be right up there. Probably joint f with the Bahamas. Beautiful water, temperature amazing, views amazing.

Full Cruise Stop Day in Kusadasi, Turkey 🇹🇷 – What’s It REALLY Like? | Celebrity Ascent Cruise Vlog Join me and Laura as we step off the Celebrity X Ascent in Kusadasi, Turkey for a full day of exploring, haggling, and soaking up the Aegean sun! 🌞 We start our day at the Kusadasi harbour with a Starbucks coffee before diving straight into our first challenge – negotiating with a taxi driver. In Turkey, you MUST agree a price before getting in! After some friendly haggling, we scored a great deal with a local driver who showed us: ☑️ A Turkish Rug Factory – seeing traditional craftsmanship in action ☑️ A Stone Jewellery Store – showcasing local gems and designs ☑️ A Turkish Delight & Baklava shop – free tastings included! Next stop: Ephesus – an ancient site full of history… but was it worth the hype? You’ll have to watch and see! Back at the Kusadasi port, we explored the bustling streets packed with fake designer goods. Some stalls had decent fakes, others “premium” fakes, but without haggling, you risk paying way too much. It was intense! To escape the chaos, we headed to Jade Beach Club – a hidden gem with crystal-clear water, comfy sunbeds, and total peace. 🏖 This was honestly some of the nicest sea water I’ve ever swum in. Our day took a twist when, back onboard, I realised I had made a huge cruise itinerary mistake – turns out the cruise didn’t end in Barcelona where it started… 😬 Whether you’re planning a Kusadasi shore excursion, visiting Ephesus, or just curious about Celebrity Cruises, this vlog has it all: real experiences, travel tips, and a few surprises along the way! #Kusadasi #TurkeyTravel #CelebrityAscent #CelebrityCruises #CruiseVlog #KusadasiPort #Ephesus #TurkishDelight #Baklava #BeachDay #JadeBeachClub #TravelVlog #CruiseLife #MediterraneanCruise #AegeanSea
