Transport
Wir sind sehr zufrieden mit dem Trip. Unser Guide war einmalig, hat uns viel Wissen vermittelt. Alle Fragen beantwortet. Sehr sehr freundlich auch unser Fahrer war sehr zuvorkommend. Wir hatten uns Ephesus nicht so groß vorgestellt und eigentlich ist es auch noch größer,da nur 20% der Anlage frei gelegt ist. Es war einzigartig, auch die gesamte Betreuung. Ein riesiges Angebot an kulinarischer Versorgung. die lange Fahrzeit wurde aber mit kleinen Pausen unterbrochen.
The ancient world comes to life during this excursion to Ephesus. The classical Greek city of Ephesus was the location of one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World – the Temple of Artemis. Gökhan, one of our expert local guides, says, "It's easy to imagine you're walking in the footsteps of the toga-clad crowds that chattered in the streets 2,000 years ago – the archaeological site of Ephesus is so well-preserved, you'll feel like you stepped back in time."
You'll travel into sun-soaked hills and olive groves to discover one of the most extensive and complete archaeological sites in the world. On arrival at Ephesus, you'll wander down marble-paved streets, gaze at mosaics in ancient Roman houses and admire epoch-defining buildings such as the Library of Celsus, the Temple of Hadrian and the Grand Theatre. Your guide will explain the historical context and point out the most interesting features. You'll also walk through the museum here, too, which is filled with digital exhibits that're designed to help reimagine what Ephesus looked like back during its golden years. After this, it's time for a buffet lunch at a nearby restaurant – the perfect chance to refuel before the next stop.
You'll round things off with a visit to a ceramics factory to see how Turkish pottery is made. Marvel at the precision of the master potter – working only by eye – as he decorates and paints traditional pieces. It's one of the best places to snap up some authentic souvenirs and support local livelihoods.
