Tour Highlights:

Ephesus: Ephesus, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the most well-preserved ancient cities in the world. Once a bustling Greek district, it is home to impressive ruins including the majestic theatre and the well-known Library of Celsus. The city’s ancient streets, theatre, and baths provide an overview of the daily life of its former inhabitants, making it a must-see destination for history lovers.

Temple of Artemis: The Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, was once a grand structure dedicated to the goddess Artemis. Although mostly in ruins today, the site still impresses visitors with the remnants of its massive columns and the history it represents.

The House of Virgin Mary: The House of Virgin Mary is a pilgrimage site located on Mount Koressos (a few kilometres away from Ephesus). This site is believed to be the place where Mary, the mother of Jesus, spent her final years after the crucifixion. The house has been a pilgrimage destination for Christians and is recognized by both the Catholic and Orthodox churches. The simple stone house is surrounded by serene gardens, offering a peaceful atmosphere for reflection and prayer.
