Half-Day Ephesus Tour Tour for Cruise Passenger

Based on your tour pick-up time, meet your guide and embark on a journey to Ancient Ephesus, an archaeological treasure and the best-preserved classical city in the Eastern Mediterranean. In the 1st century AD, Ephesus was the second-largest city in the world, after Rome, with a population of over 250,000. Ephesus is so well-preserved that walking through its ancient streets among stunning monuments like the third-largest library of the ancient world and the largest Roman theatre in Asia feels like stepping back in time. Next, visit the Temple of Artemis (Artemision), one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. This temple, dedicated to the goddess Artemis, was a major pilgrimage site in antiquity. It featured 127 Ionic columns, each 19 meters high, and is also considered the earliest bank of the ancient world. At the end of the tour, we will drive you back to the departure point.
