Private Full-Day Shore Excursion from Izmir Private Ancient Ephesus - Virgin Mary Sightseeing

Enjoy a mostly panoramic tour with a few photo stops.

Arrive at the Upper Gate of Ephesus from where you can see the Odeon in the distance. Your guide will provide you with some information about the site from the outside.

Another quick photo stop on the road is at the statue of the Virgin Mary, en route to the Lower Gate of Ephesus where you can find souvenirs and facilities, as well as more information about Ephesus from the outside, while seeing the Great Theatre from this point.

Visit Isa Bey Mosque, one of the oldest and most impressive works of architectural art from the Anatolian Beylik’s.
