This is a private tour with a personal tour guide from/to Bodrum Port. Visit Ancient Ephesus and the Temple of Artemis. We GUARANTEE your timely return to the Port.
Based on the arranged pick-up time for your private tour, meet your guide and set off to explore the ancient city of Ephesus, a remarkable archaeological site and one of the most well-preserved classical cities in the Eastern Mediterranean. During the 1st century AD, Ephesus was the second-largest city in the world, after Rome, with a population exceeding 250,000. Positioned at the heart of the known world, it served as a vital link between East and West. Its vast harbor made it a significant hub for trade in antiquity. Ephesus was not only a prosperous commercial center but also a city of great allure, where historical figures like Mark Antony and Cleopatra chose to spend their honeymoon. The city also boasts one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World—the Temple of Artemis.
Ephesus is so well-preserved that strolling through its ancient streets, surrounded by awe-inspiring structures like the third-largest library of the ancient era and the grandest Roman theater in Asia, feels like stepping back in time.
Following this, you’ll visit the Temple of Artemis, also known as the Artemision, another of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Dedicated to the goddess Artemis, this magnificent sanctuary was renowned in antiquity and drew countless pilgrims to Ephesus. The temple featured 127 Ionic columns, each standing 19 meters tall, and is also regarded as one of the earliest banking institutions of ancient times. At the end of the tour, you’ll be driven back to your starting point.
