From Kusadasi: Small Group Ephesus Day Tour
- Your tour will begin as you are picked up from your accommodation between 8:30 AM and 9:00 AM.
- From there, your first stop will be to the House of Virgin Mary, which is speculated to be the place where Mary spent her final days. The site was officially declared a shrine of the Roman Catholic Church in 1986 and has since become a popular place of pilgrimage.
- Your tour will then proceed to Ephesus. Ephesus is an exceptional testimony to the cultural traditions of the Hellenistic, Roman Imperial, and early Christian periods. It is an important site for Christianity, one of the seven Churches of Revelation.
- Over two hours, you will explore the city by walking on the marble streets accompanied by an English-speaking tour guide.
- You will see Odeon, State Agora, Prytaneion, Memmius Monument, Domitian Temple, Hercules Gate, Curetes Street, Hadrian Temple, and Latrines throughout your tour.
- Following the Terrace Houses, you will carry on with some exploration of the Celsus Library, Marble Road, Commercial Agora, Great Theather, and Arcadian.
- Following lunch, you will carry on a visit to the Temple of Artemis, one of the "Seven Wonders of Antiquity".
- Finally, you will visit Sirince, an old village situated on the hills of Selcuk, 7 kilometres from Ephesus. The village is popular for beautiful traditional houses and fruit-flavoured wine production, and you will have free time there for some wine tasting if you wish.
- Your tour will later conclude at around 4:30 PM, at which point you will be transferred back to your hotel.
