During our tour, we will visit the places below;

• Ephesus Ancient City: One of the best well-kept Greco-Roman ancient cities in the world, also listed by UNESCO. Ephesus was an ancient Greek city on the west coast of Asia Minor, known for its well-preserved ruins of a Roman-era theater known that St. John and St. Paul preached to the Ephesians, library, and temples. A major trading center in its time. A must-see for history enthusiasts.
• Wine Tasting: you’ll be transported to the heart of Turkey’s burgeoning wine culture. This enchanting journey is an exploration of the elegance and flavors of local wines that have been crafted with passion and precision. Kusadasi’s vineyards and wineries have embraced both traditional and modern winemaking techniques, resulting in a delightful array of wines that reflect the region’s unique terroir and character.
• Local Art Gallery: in the end, we will visit a cooperative where you can delve into the realm of Turkish handcrafted treasures, including ranch-style rugs, kilims, and the renowned local leather artisans. Here, you’ll not only gain invaluable insights, but you’ll witness the exceptional skill and unwavering dedication of the village women who have woven these artistic gems for millennia.
