Gyakori kérdések
What are Priene, Miletus and Didyma?
Three ancient Ionian cities south of Kuşadası. Priene is a terraced Hellenistic town on a mountainside, Miletus was a great port city with a huge theatre, and Didyma held the Temple of Apollo — one of the largest temples of the ancient world, home to an oracle second only to Delphi.
Is this tour better than the Ephesus tour?
It is different rather than better: Ephesus is grander and better preserved, while these three sites are far quieter — you often walk through them with only a handful of other visitors. Most travellers do Ephesus first and this tour as a second history day.
How much walking does the tour involve?
A moderate amount at each site, spread across the day. Priene involves the most uneven ground as it sits on a hillside terrace; comfortable shoes, a hat and water are recommended.
Is lunch included on the Priene, Miletus and Didyma tour?
Yes — lunch by the sea is included, along with transfers and a licensed guide. Entrance fees to the three sites are paid separately.
