WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1.
Unique Ephesus Tours will meet you.
2.
Ephesus: The ancient city of Ephesus is home to many well-preserved ruins, including the Roman-era streets, public buildings, and private houses. Visitors can explore the city and imagine what life was like in the Roman Empire. Some of the highlights of Ephesus include the Library of Celsus, the Great Theater, the Temple of Artemis, and the Terrace Houses. Ephesus’s most spectacular site has to be the façade of the Library of Celsus. Constructed between 110 and 135AD, the library originally had three floors, but an earthquake destroyed the building in the 10th century. Other sites include the Theater, Basilica of St. John, the Cave of the Seven Sleepers, Church of Mary, House of the Virgin, the Isabey Mosque, the Prytaneion, the synagogue and the Temple of Hadrian. All the sites are in varying states of disrepair. Unfortunately, all that remains of the Temple of Artemis, rumoured to have been four times as large as the Parthenon, is one column standing in a marshy basin.
3.
The Temple of Artemis: Ephesus was home to one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Temple of Artemis. Although the temple no longer exists, the foundation and some columns remain, providing an idea of the scale and grandeur of the original temple.
4.
Built and extended between the 14th and 18th centuries, picturesque Kusadasi Castle sits on Pigeon Island (Guvercin Adasa), an islet connected to Kusadasi via a causeway. Originally constructed as a military base, the fortress is composed of outer walls that enclose its gardens and an inner castle with a tiny museum.
5.
A cluster of ancient 2-story homes spread across three tiers, the Ephesus Terrace Houses reveal how wealthy Romans lived during the city’s glory days. Glass floors let you admire geometric mosaics and still-colorful frescoes gleaming on the walls—it’s a small wonder some compare the site to Pompeii.
6.
The House of Virgin Mary: is a Christian pilgrimage site in Turkey, it is believed to be the last home of the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus Christ, who is said to have lived there until her Assumption. It is considered one of the most holy places in the world by Catholics.

I would certainly recommend him to anyone.
Ephesus, although hot, was fascinating, and Kaya made it come to life. Well worth a visit

We loved the tour with Ozy in Kusadasi! From the easy pick up and his attention to our comfort, we really enjoyed the visit to Ephesus, an amazing lunch at the weaving school and an entertaining visit to the leather factory. Ozy was very knowledgeable about the ruins at Ephesus, and did a great job showing us the best things to see and places with good photo opportunities. We also visited the House of Mary and Ozy had some great stories, as well as recommended placing a wish on the wishing wall. I would highly recommend this tour with Ozy and Unique Ephesus Tours.

Outstanding. Accommodated all of our requests, paced for our mixed group of young and old in high temperatures. Kaya was our guide and was excellent. Friendly, knowledgeable, funny, and not at all pushy on agenda. He reached out to coordinate meeting at the port, and the can was great. He found places for us to sit, cool off, etc. Great experience!

This tour was fantastic. It was a genuinely unforgettable day, but I'm not sure how to convince myself that the reports I read are accurate. First of all, with sights like the Temple of Artemis, the Terrace Houses, the House of Mary, and the ruins of Ephesus, how could one possibly go wrong? The most remarkable aspect was guide ali , our amiable, informed, and captivating guide. Especially as Christians, we gained a lot of knowledge! It could not have gone or been planned more perfectly in terms of logistics.
