Upon arrival at Kusadasi Cruise Port, our professional tour guide will greet you upon your name sign.
A 20-minute drive awaits as we journey to Ephesus, an essential city within the 12 Ionian League cities. Its strategic location as a port facilitated extensive maritime activities and trade routes to Asia Minor.
Upon arrival, embark on a guided tour of Ephesus, exploring its historical significance as a key departure point for trade routes into the region. Marvel at the grandeur of the Baths of Scholastica and the Library of Celsus, two of the most remarkable architectural marvels in the ancient city.
Admire the imposing Temple of Hadrian and the majestic Grand Theater, both of which stand out among the numerous attractions in Ephesus.
Next, explore the charming Terrace Houses, situated on the slopes of Pion Mountain. Here, you'll find six luxurious residences arranged on three distinct terraces, each adorned with exquisite wall frescoes and intricate floor mosaics, reflecting the wealth of the Ephesian elite.
The visit concludes with a fascinating stop at the House of Virgin Mary, located in the Aladag Mountains, approximately five miles from Ephesus. This site offers insights into Mary's visit to Ephesus in 431 AD and the subsequent transformation of the area into a pilgrimage destination in 1892.
Your tour concludes with a brief stop at the nearby Artemission Temple, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Following this, we proceed back to your designated pickup point.
