Overview
Walk with me through time as we explore the legendary city of Ephesus, one of the most important archaeological sites in the world. On this private tour, you’ll discover the grandeur of the ancient Roman Empire and feel the spiritual peace of sacred Christian landmarks. We’ll stroll down marble streets once walked by emperors and apostles. You’ll stand in the Great Theater where 25,000 once gathered, admire the artistry of the Baths of Varius, and gaze up at the remains of the Temple of Artemis, once a Wonder of the Ancient World. At the House of the Virgin Mary, experience the calm and reverence of a site believed to be her final home. Along the way, I’ll share the hidden stories, legends, and details that bring these ruins to life. With private transport, skip-the-line access, and a traditional Turkish lunch, this all-inclusive journey is perfect for travelers passionate about history, archaeology, and meaningful experiences in one unforgettable day.
