Itinerary

  • Ephesus Museum

    Ephesus is an important place in Christian history as it is recognized as the final residence of Mother Mary. During the second half of the first century Christians were heavily persecuted under the Roman rule. According to tradition after the crucifixion of Jesus, St John did bring Mother Mary to Ephesus with him to hide escape persecution. They did spend their last years in Ephesus which was a very prosperous trading city

  • Meryemana (The Virgin Mary's House)

    The House of the Virgin Mary is located 6 kms (3.7mi) from Ephesus and surrounded by pine and olive trees. It is made of stone and looks very small and humble. Outside the house is a "wishing wall" which pilgrims have used by tying their personal intentions on paper or fabric. A water source is also located nearby, believed to have miraculous powers of healing. The shrine was visited by several popes.

Great Full Tour of Ephesus!

Published on Mar, 2023

We had a great tour. We were the only people to book so we had a private tour. Our guide Mehmet used the opportunity to show us everything and in great detail. It would not have been possible with a larger group. When I asked about going to the St John Basilica he said it wasn’t on the itinerary (despite that it is clearly listed in the tour title). He said it wasn’t a problem to go there and we needed to pay to go inside. The Isa Bey mosque is closed for renovation so we only saw it at a distance from the St John Basilica. On the tour we had to stop by a leather factory and then at a pottery shop. The day would have been perfect without the mandatory sales pitches by the shop staff.

Published on Oct, 2017

A Fantastic Day out to various sites, which included Ephesus Ancient City, Temple of Artemis, St John Basilica and the Isa Bey Mosque.
The tour was one of the best we have ever been on, our Guide Adam picked us up with the driver at 8.30 am at our Hotel, due to the low season and Turkey sadly being so quiet we were the only couple on the Tour, but this was to our advantage. It meant we had a private guide, which was brilliant.
The tour itself was so thorough and Adam was so knowledgeable. He covered everything, going over all the history of Ephesus and allowed us time to take pictures and spend time looking on our own.

The sites in this tour are well chosen, they cover a lot of sites in one day and there is the right amount of time allowed at each stop.

We got back to the hotel around 4.30pm, which was a nice time to relax and freshen up before dinner.

The food was a buffet lunch which was served at a nice hotel restaurant, this was a nice mix of Turkish food.

I would thoroughly recommend this tour company,this tour and the guide himself is brilliant.

10 out of 10 from us, we will definately be telling everyone we know to use Funny Tourism
