Aegean transfer journal
The Ege Transfer journal covers the practical side of travelling in the Aegean: how to get from Izmir Airport into the city, what happens to your transfer when a flight is delayed, how to plan an Ephesus day trip or a cruise shore day, travelling with children, and when each route slows down in summer. Every article is written from what we actually see on these roads.
