Inside the basilica, you will observe the 4th century grave that is believed to keep the remains of the saint. Then you will take a ride to Ephesus, an ancient city famous for its early Christian roots.

Then, you will have the opportunity to explore the Great Theater and Library of Celsus with your guide, and uncover one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Temple of Artemis, as well as other well maintained ancient temples.
