If you are a history buff and an avid traveller, you cannot afford to miss out on Turkey. The

place has an incredible romance about it- the splendid monuments strewn across the country

speak of a rich cultural history, the fabulous coastlines and landscapes, a warm, friendly

people whose traditions and lifestyles speak of myriad influences (the fantastic range of

cuisines is just one such example!) , the busy ,bustling, colourful, streets and bazaars-are

what Turkey is all about.

Amongst the innumerable places worth visiting in Turkey, Ephesus perhaps tops the list. The

place is a UNESCO heritage site and just about 15% of the ancient city of Ephesus has been

unearthed till date. Archaeologists from all over the world are busy trying to unearth the rest

of this incredible and wealthy port city of the ancient Greek and Roman empires. But just

this 15% is enough to give you a glimpse of an incredible era of wealth, power, learning, and

beauty. An Ephesus Turkey tour is a must if you are planning to visit Turkey for a vacation.

There is a lot to see in Ephesus. When you walk the streets of Ephesus you will be following

in the footsteps of Emperors, philosophers, queens and powerful religious figures. It is

believed that Mother Mary spent her last days in Ephesus, St. John the apostle preached here,

Alexander the great strode down its marbled streets, the haughty and powerful Cleopatra held

court here, Mark Anthony besotted with love for Cleopatra sat in the gardens with her by his

side, and the great philosopher Heraclitus pondered on the ways of life in this city. The list is

endless and one can go on and on…but one will never be able to do justice to this place by

mere descriptions- it needs to be experienced first-hand!

Access to Ephesus is relatively simple. Ephesus Turkey tour agencies usually make

extremely comfortable and efficient arrangements to have you picked, from and to, the

nearest Airport, port, hotel. There are no arrangements for stay near the sites itself in order to

preserve the place and eliminate disturbances which will be harmful to the structures.

The tour operators provide tour itineraries which suit your time and budget limitations. There

are full day and half day trips which are well planned and cover quite a bit of all there is to

see. But even a half day or a full day trip should be selected according to your area of

interest. You may choose from sightseeing options like Biblical, archaeological, terrace

homes, etc. In case you can manage the time, then a customized tour can be worked out with

the guidance of experienced tour agencies to fit in all the sites you want to visit according to

the number of days orhours, available with you.

Since Ephesus is such a popular tourist destination, the packages and offers from the array of

tour operators are competitive-in terms of prices, arrangements, tour guides, comfort level

and so on. But it is a good idea to check out websites thoroughly, read some reviews or get

word of mouth recommendations, before selecting a tour service agency.

The wonderful heritage monuments, the ease of access, and the extremely good travel

agencies are just some of the reasons why you should be visiting Ephesus. But if you visit

once, we guarantee you will find a lot more reasons to keep coming back!
