Day 2: Antalya – Ephesus – Izmir

Today revolves around Ephesus – Turkey’s largest archaeological area. During the 1st century AD, Ephesus was the second-largest city in the world after Rome, boasting a population of over 250,000 citizens. You’ll learn all about it on a tour before heading to Izmir. Cross the Taurus Mountains and drive through the fertile valley to reach the largest archaeological site in the country, Ephesus. There, you will explore the theatre, the marble street, the Library of Celsus, Hadrian's Temple, and many other historic structures. Overnight in Izmir.


Day 3: Izmir – Pergamon – Troy – Canakkale

After a tasty breakfast, we will visit two more UNSECO-stamped ancient cities – Pergamon and Troy. In Pergamon once stood the famous altar of Zeus. On the Acropolis Hill, you will see the steep theatre, the ruins of the library and the partially rebuilt temple of Trajan. Next, drive on to Troy along the charming coastal landscape. The afternoon is dedicated to Troy and Homer. Discovered by Heinrich Schliemann, it is considered the most famous of the ancient sites in Turkey. Dinner and overnight stay in Canakkale.

Day 4: Canakkale – Istanbul

Today, you will leave the ancient world behind, as you travel by car and ferry to the cosmopolitan Turkish city of Istanbul. After crossing the legendary Dardanelles by car ferry, you will reach your new destination: Istanbul the cosmopolitan city on 2 continents. You will visit one of Istanbul's greatest sights, the Topkapi Palace, which was the seat of the Ottoman sultans for 400 years. The individual parts of the palace are today a museum. Among other things costume, porcelain and weapons collections. In the early evening, you will have free time to stroll through the "Grand Bazaar", one of the oldest and biggest covered markets in the world made up of 61 streets and over 4,000 shops. Overnight in Istanbul.


Day 5: Istanbul

Today after breakfast enjoy a full-day city tour through the lively metropolis, which was once called Byzantium. First stop at the Hippodrome, the ancient horse racecourse. This ancient arena in Sultanahmet Square was mainly used for chariot races. It was the centre of everyday life for men in the Byzantine period. You will then visit the "Blue Mosque" – named after the blue tiles that decorate its interior. Built in the early 1600s, it’s the only mosque in Istanbul with six minaret towers. At the end, we visit the UNESCO-listed Hagia Sophia. This renowned building began as a church approximately 1,500 years ago, later transitioned into a mosque, and eventually became a museum. The afternoon is free at your leisure. Overnight in Istanbul.
