Explore the entire ancient city of Ephesus — Library of Celsus, Great Theatre, Curetes Street — in a fully private, expert-led tour with your own licensed guide and Mercedes van, guaranteed back at port on time.
What to expect
Your guide meets you dockside at Kusadasi Port and whisks you to Ephesus in a private air-conditioned van. Walking the marble-paved Curetes Street with no crowds around you, the scale of this 250,000-person Roman metropolis becomes visceral. Highlights include the soaring two-storey Library of Celsus facade, the 25,000-seat Great Theatre where St Paul preached, and the sacred Gate of Hercules. Your guide weaves mythology, early Christianity, and Roman imperial politics into every column and frieze.
