Itinerary

Itinerary:

You will be met at the port by a Cruising Excursions representative who guide you to your air-conditioned transportation ready to commence your tour.

After meeting with your private guide, you will have a 20-minute drive to Ephesus area. We will start visiting one of the main highlights in Turkey, Ephesus, one of the 12 cities of Ionian League (an ancient Greek district on the western coast of Asia Minor) As a port city it was a major departure point for trade routes into Asia Minor.

We will continue the walk through history along marble streets lined with wonderful public buildings, among them the Baths of Scholastica, the Library of Celsus which was built in the beginning of the 2nd century A.D. by Gaius Julius Aquila to be a memorial to his father Gaius Julius Celsus Polemanus, the proconsul of Province of Asia. The Temple of Hadrian and The Grand Theatre are two of the most impressive buildings in Ephesus. The Grand theatre was built in 3rd century B.C and it was later expanded to 24.000 spectators by the Romans in the 1st century A.D.

There is plenty of souvenir stands and also restrooms at the end of Ephesus.

After visiting Ephesus, we will visit Artemis Temple where this used to be one of the seven wonders of the ancient world before it was destroyed in a fire. After the Temple, we will drive up to the pretty old Turkish-Orthodox village Sirince, located on the top of a mountain, where anyone will enjoy the impressive wine yards’ and peach trees. The village has synthesis of Turk-Greek culture, where we visit mosque and Orthodox Church. All the narrow streets of the village belong to the women, selling handcrafts of all kinds, olive oil. Another attraction of Sirince is its fruity wine, try its taste in small cafés.

Drive back to Kusadasi town centre and port.
