Explore ancient Ephesus, a UNESCO site, and its surrounding areas on this full-day excursion that begins in Priene, known for its magnificent 2,750-year-old Temple of Athena. Continuing to Ephesus, you'll pass through the three-arched Magnesian Gate and begin a slow, downhill walk through the ruins of the Roman provincial capital. Your knowledgeable guide will lead you along the marbled streets past highlights such as the beautifully preserved Temple of Hadrian, the Trajan Fountain, the Odeon Theater, the beautiful Celsus Library and the Great Theater, once used for gladiator games. Up the hill stands the Terrace Houses, a complex of seven homes dating back 2,000 years. Their well-preserved frescoes and beautiful courtyards present a remarkable testimony to life of the wealthiest Ephesians. A buffet lunch at a luxury hotel follows and back in Kusadasi, you'll take in a Turkish carpet-weaving demonstration and browse the colorful markets and bazaars for souvenirs.
