Ancient City of Ephesus
After greeting, we will have 20 mins. Drive to Ephesus area. Ephesus (Rev. 2:1-7), major port city on the Aegean, was the commercial, political, and religious center of all of Asia Minor. After a lunatic completely burned the Temple of Diana (Artemis) on the night, that Alexander the Great was born in 356 B.C. The Ephesians worked for 120 years to complete a magnificent reconstructed temple, one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world. The city became part of the Roman Empire in the second century B.C. As a Roman capital of Asia Minor, Ephesus boasted a population approaching 250,000 people. The Apostle Paul’s first visit to Ephesus was brief—during his second missionary tour (Acts 18:19-21). His second visit lasted about three years—during his third missionary tour (Acts 19:1 to 20:31). Luke’s account of the worship of Diana appears in Acts 19:34-35. The Great Theatre (stadium) mentioned in Acts 19:29-31 could seat 25,000 people. Walk the marble-paved street with grooves made by chariot wheels. See the Fountain of Trojan, the Library of Celsus and the Great Theatre.Visit the Chapel of the Virgin Mary (Double Church), where the Third Ancient Council convened.

It is important that the travelers should be advised that it is difficult for those who have mobility issue. Long walk (1 to 1/5 hours walk) on uneven paths.

We had a wonderful time visiting Mama Mary's house, the ancient city of Ephesus, the Basilica of St. John and the Temple of Artemis. Our tour guide, Mr. Tezz, is very knowledgeable and explained to us the history of the place and even took some photos of us. He also made sure that we were able to board the cruise ship on time.

What an amazing day! Ephesus is amazing. We highly recommend doing a private tour with Tunc. He is fantastic. His knowledge made the day extra special.

This tour was incredible from start to finish! Selenay’s knowledge of Biblical history was outstanding! The tour was seamless from beginning to end. We were able to find Selenay with ease at the port. She was very polite and was able to answer any question that we had. The transportation was high quality. My husband and I would highly recommend!
