    What To Expect

    House of Virgin Mary

    House of Mary is our first stop. The House of the Virgin Mary is located on Mount Koressos which is about 5 kilometers away from the ancient city of Ephesus, and 7 kilometers away from the modern-day town of Selçuk. The site is considered to be the place where the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus, spent her last years, and it has become a pilgrimage destination for Christians from around the world. For Christians, the House of the Virgin Mary holds immense religious importance as it symbolizes Mary’s role as the mother of Jesus Christ. Many believe that being in the presence of where Mary once lived brings them closer to the divine and strengthens their faith. Belived that drinking water from here brings you luck, love and wealth.

    Ancient City of Ephesus

    After our visit to House of Mary, we start to explore the Ephesus city. Ephesus is one of the largest and most impressive ancient cities in the world and is one of Türkiye’s most significant ancient cities. Its cultural and historical significance was highlighted in its addition to the UNESCO World Heritage Site list in 2015. The remains of the city lie just 80 km inland from the popular seaside city of İzmir and close to the charming towns of Selcuk and Sirince. Ephesus, one of the biggest and most important Roman cities, is still under excavation and study. Visitors to the site will be truly impressed by the grandeur of the ancient city. In Ephesus we will explore; Library of Celsus The Ancient Theater Basilica of St. John Aqueducts Agoras The Temple of the Sebastoi Temple of Hadrian The Odeon Temple of Artemis Terrace House

    Lake Bafa Nature Park

    After exploring the magnificant Ephesus we head to have a late lunch by the Lake Bafa. Situated in the beautiful Lake Bafa National Park, with the spectacular backdrop of Latmos mountain, Bafa is a haven of tranquillity. And if you are lucky, you might witness to one of the biggest mistery on the planet, One may find this hard to believe but the eels in Lake Bafa come from the Gulf of Saragossa in Mexico. Once the eels in Lake Bafa reach a certain maturity they start on their long journey which takes them up to the Menderes River through which they reach the Aegean Sea from where they reach the Mediterranean before crossing the Atlantic to reach Gulf of Saragossa in Mexico.
