• Ancient City of Ephesus - Upon arrival at Izmir International Cruise Port, the Operator will meet you and drive to Selçuk to explore Ephesus. This city attracts millions annually due to its historical and spiritual significance. Once a prominent Roman city and bustling trade center, Ephesus was home to the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It was also a key site for Christianity, with St. Paul preaching at the Great Theater and St. John believed to have spent his final years here. Ephesus is mentioned in the Book of Revelation as one of the Seven Churches of Asia. Visitors will explore the Celsus Library, Great Theater, Temple of Hadrian, Fountain of Trajan, Hercules Gate, Domitian Temple, and more. Experience the rich history and stunning sights that make Ephesus one of Turkey’s most extraordinary ancient cities.
• Ephesus Terrace Houses - These Terrace Houses, once the homes of wealthy Ephesians, offer insight into daily life in ancient Ephesus.

The museum brings Ephesus to life with 3D projections, interactive storytelling, and digital reconstructions, offering a sensory and educational experience that complements the exploration of Ephesus’ ruins.
• Virgin Mary’s House - Overlooking Ephesus from Bulbul Mountain, Virgin Mary’s House is a modest stone dwelling discovered by Lazarist priests following the visions of German nun Katherine Emerick. It is now a pilgrimage site for both Muslims and Christians. Visitors can pray in the chapel or find tranquility in the peaceful garden, making it a deeply spiritual experience.
• The Temple of Artemis - The tour concludes at the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, dedicated to Artemis, the goddess of fertility and hunting.
