Ephesus, one of the greatest cities of the ancient world, is the heart of this tour. With your guide you walk its marble streets, see the grand façade of the Library of Celsus and the Great Theatre where St Paul is said to have preached.
Next you drive up to the House of the Virgin Mary on Mount Koressos, a peaceful place in the forest held sacred by Christians and Muslims alike. The day ends at the remains of the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
