Priene, Miletus and Didyma: travel through history to Classic Antiquity visiting three of Turkey's incredible ancient sites on this day trip from Kusadasi.
Priene, Miletus & Didyma Day Trip
After hotel pickup in Kusadasi, the tour proceeds south through the Turkish province of Aydin, exploring the ancient city of Ionia.
The first stop is the Priene archaeological site, an Ionian town known for its strict street plan and proximity of public buildings. Visitors can see the main city square (agora), the theatre, and the bouleuterion, where the democratic council met.
The next stop is Miletus, recognized as one of the wealthiest Ancient Greek cities. Here, guests can view the theatre, temples, and public buildings associated with notable figures like Thales of Miletus.
Following Miletus, the tour continues to Didyma, where participants have free time for lunch. The visit includes the Temple of Apollo, a significant ancient temple known for its oracle.
After the tour of Didyma, there is a return journey to Kusadasi, with an expected arrival at the hotel nine and a half hours after departure.
