Private Tour
Day 1 (Private Ephesus Tour, lunch included)
We will pick you up from your hotel at approximately 05:00am, and transfer you to either Istanbul Airport or Sabiha Gokcen Airport. You will then take a flight to Izmir Airport. Upon your arrival, our driver will be waiting for you at the airport and will drive you to our office.
After a brief refreshment in our office, we will begin our journey to the House of Virgin Mary. The House of Virgin Mary was discovered by Sister Anne Catherine Emmerich, a German nun, in 1812. Through her vivid visions, Sister Emmerich described her dreamlike visits to Jerusalem, where she witnessed St. John and the Virgin Mary traveling from Jerusalem to Ephesus. She recalled seeing a rectangular-shaped stone house, built by St. John for the Virgin Mary.
After visiting this significant pilgrimage site, we will drive for about 10 minutes to the Ancient City of Ephesus, one of the largest archaeological sites in the world. Our tour will include the Odeon, The Fountain of Trajan, the baths of Scholastica, as well as the Temples of Hadrian and Domitian, and the magnificent Library of Celsius. We will also visit The Grand Theatre, where Saint Paul once preached. This theatre, the largest in ancient times, had a seating capacity of 24,000. Our walk through the Ephesus ruins will take approximately 2.5 hours, followed by a lunch.
After lunch, we will proceed to visit The Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Our final destination will be Sirince Village, just a 15-minute drive away. This village remained a Greek Orthodox Village until the 1924 exchange agreement between the Republic of Turkey and Greece. According to this exchange, Greeks living in Turkey were swapped with Turks living in Greece. The tour will conclude around 4:30pm, after which we will return you to your hotel. Overnight accommodation will be in Selcuk.
Day 2 (Private Pamukkale Tour – Flight to Istanbul, breakfast and lunch included)
After having breakfast at your hotel in the morning, we will meet you at the hotel around 08:00am and drive you to Hierapolis Ancient City, a journey of approximately 2.5 hours. Once there, we will explore the largest Necropolis (cemetery) in Turkey, The Domitian and Byzantium Gates, the Main Street, and the theatre, which has a seating capacity of 20,000. After visiting the theatre, you will have some free time to swim in the Cleopatra Pool, should you wish. Please note that an additional 10 Euro entrance fee is required for access to the pool. Upon finishing the walk through the ruins of Hierapolis, we will reach the famous Travertine terraces.
The travertine pools are unique natural formations created by thermal springs rich in calcium bicarbonate, chalk, and limestone. These travertines cascade down the hills, creating a stunning effect that closely resembles a frozen waterfall. The tour will conclude around 4:00pm, after which we will drive you to Denizli Airport for your flight back to Istanbul. Upon arrival, our driver will meet you at the airport and take you back to your hotel in the Old City area. Overnight accommodation will be in Sultanahmet.
