Visit the ruined city of ancient Ephesus, founded by the Hittites.
See the glorious Celsus Library façade, restored and reconstructed in the 1970s, the Great Theatre, and the Temple of Hadrian.
Don’t miss the Terrace Houses -- a newly excavated section of Ephesus -- located opposite Hadrian’s Temple. The wealthy and important people of Ephesus lived in these houses, which are finely decorated with mosaics and frescoes, giving a true impression of the ancient lifestyle.
Back in Kusadasi, disembark the motorcoach for shopping and an optional carpet demonstration or return directly to the ship.
