This 4-day guided tour visits Kusadasi (3 nights). Prices start from $1,080 per person, based on two travelers sharing. Operated by One Nation Travel, a TÜRSAB-licensed (No. A-6073) local tour operator founded in Istanbul in 2008.
Itinerary Overview:
Explore western Turkey on a 4-day cultural route that begins with pickup from your European-side Istanbul hotel and a domestic flight to Izmir, then continues with guided road touring from a three-night base in Kuşadası. The itinerary suits travelers who want to connect western Turkey’s major classical sites without arranging flights, transfers, site entries, guiding, and hotels separately. In Ephesus, you walk ancient marble streets and visit key monuments from the Greek, Roman, and Ottoman periods.
The route then reaches Pergamon for its Acropolis and Asclepion before continuing inland to Pamukkale’s white mineral terraces and the Roman city of Hierapolis. On the final day, your guide follows the Ionian coast through Priene, Miletus, and Didyma, where temples, theaters, and Byzantine remains show how Greek, Roman, and later Byzantine communities shaped the region. Breakfasts, selected lunches, licensed English-speaking guiding, included site entries, local transfers, and return flights to Istanbul keep the journey focused on archaeology rather than planning.
