Itinerary

Day 1

After meeting up with your guide in front of the Kusadasi port passenger terminal, you will begin your drive out to Ancient Ephesus, just under an hour away. Your first stop on this fascinating tour is at the House of the Virgin Mary, a Christian shrine in the vicinity of Ephesus. Some Christians and Muslims believe that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was taken to this stone house by Saint John following the crucifixion of Jesus. Roman Catholics believe that she lived there until her assumption into Heaven; other denominations of Christians recognize this spot as her burial place.

Now continue on to Ephesus, one of the most magnificent and best-preserved ancient sites in the world. Even those who usually find ruins boring will be captivated by this site. Ancient historians believed that Ephesus was founded by the Amazons, but now it is more commonly believed to have been the Hittite city of Apasa. With your guide, you will see the Odeion, where the advisory council held its meetings, the Market Basilica, Curetes Street, Bath, Celsus Library, whose facade has been carefully reconstructed from all original pieces, Marble Street, and the Great Theatre with a seating capacity of 25,000 people.
On your return trip to Kusadasi, enjoy the scenery or a shopping opportunity, if time permits.Optional;Add up Terrace Houses.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud

It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:

  • It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
  • If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
  • Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
