What To Expect

Ancient City of Ephesus

Your guide will pick you up from your hotel or from your cruise ship. You will start your tour with a 60-minute drive to Ephesus with a visit to the most important buildings. Ephesus is an ancient city in Turkey’s Central Aegean region, near modern-day Selçuk. Its excavated remains reflect centuries of history, from classical Greece to the Roman Empire – when it was the Mediterranean’s main commercial center – to the spread of Christianity. Paved streets wind past squares, baths and monumental ruins. The Temple of Hadrian was built before 138 A.D. for Emperor Hadrian’s visit.
