This tour is specially designed for cruise ship passengers and includes visits to the ancient city of Ephesus, the Temple of Artemis and the village of Sirince.

Our tour begins with a visit to Ephesus, one of the best-preserved Roman cities. This historic site is mentioned in the New Testament and is where St Paul preached. In Ephesus, you can visit the Terrace Houses, which once belonged to the city's wealthiest families. These luxurious homes feature impressive mosaics, frescoes, and an early central heating system. Please note that there is an additional charge for admission to the Terrace Houses.

After exploring Ephesus, we visit the site of the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Here you will see the remains of what was once a magnificent structure.

We continue to Sirince, a charming village famous for its green landscapes, historic stone houses and local wines. Originally a Greek settlement, the village offers narrow stone streets, flower-decorated houses and a peaceful atmosphere. You can taste the famous fruit wines and buy handmade souvenirs.

Later we will enjoy a delicious meal at a selected restaurant and have free time to explore the local shops.

At the end of the tour we return to Kusadasi Cruise Harbour.
