What To Expect

Kusadasi (Pass By)

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE! ⚠️⛔ Group tours may sound convenient, but they often mean sacrificing your freedom. You’re forced to follow a rigid schedule, rush through places you might not care about, and wait for others — all while paying entry fees upfront for sites you may not even want to visit. Why spend your valuable holiday time and money this way?✅ With our private tours, your day is truly yours! You decide where to go, how long to stay, and what to see. Entry fees aren’t included in advance, so you only pay for the places that genuinely interest you. Each morning, we discuss your preferences and shape the tour around you.✳️ Imagine the difference: Instead of being herded along with strangers, you explore at your own pace. Instead of paying for places you don’t care about, every stop is somewhere you actually want to see.Don’t settle for a one-size-fits-all tour. Choose a private experience tailored just for you and your family — and make your trip unforgettable!

Ancient City of Ephesus

Upon arrival at Ephesus, we embark on our exploration of this meticulously preserved ancient city. Originally founded in the 10th century BC by Attic and Ionian Greek settlers on the former Arzawan capital site, Ephesus thrived as a prominent city-state along the Ionian coast, approximately 3 kilometers southwest of modern-day Selçuk in İzmir Province, Turkey. During the Classical Greek period, it held significant status as one of the twelve cities belonging to the Ionian League. In 129 BC, Ephesus fell under the dominion of the Roman Republic, marking a pivotal era in its history.

The Temple of Artemis

The Temple of Artemis, also called the Artemision or Temple of Diana, was an ancient Greek temple honoring a local version of the goddess Artemis (equivalent to the Roman goddess Diana). Situated in Ephesus, it underwent complete reconstruction twice: first following a destructive flood, and later, three centuries after, due to an arson attack. In its ultimate incarnation, it achieved renown as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. By the year 401 AD, the temple had suffered ruin or destruction. Today, only foundational remnants and fragments of the last temple remain at the site.
