Duration

8 hours

Overview

This experience is a private tour from Kusadasi port and hotels in Kusadasi. You’ll explore the Kusadasi’s cultural, biblical and historical sights on this tour. If walls could talk, the ruins of Ephesus would have some stories to tell. Back in the 1st century BC, this city was one of powerhouses of the Mediterranean. Drive to the Virgin Mary Monument to get a snapshot of the world famous Ephesus that glimmers in the distance. Next, carry on to the House of Virgin Mary. Historians believe Mary spent her last days in the area around this place of pilgrimage. You’ll head to the village of Sirince. It’s a peaceful little place that hugs the hillside and is famous for its homemade wines and Gözleme – griddle bread with various fillings. Visit Temple of Artemis. This ancient religious house is counted as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. These days, it pales in comparison to the emblem of Ephesus – Library of Celcus, which was once one of the grandest libraries of antiquity.
