What you can expect

Explore the crumbling remains and weather-worn marble arcades of early Christian sites as you uncover the 7 Churches of Revelation with an expert guide. See the temples of Ephesus, learn about about the healing practices of ancient Greeks and Romans, and see where the Virgin Mary spent her last days.

Day 1
Catch an early morning flight from Istanbul to Izmir, on Turkey's west coast. When you arrive, hop in a comfortable shuttle and head straight for the ancient city of Ephesus, where the Temple of Artemis and age-old churches beckon visitors to step back in time. Follow your guide to the mountain home where Mary is believed to have lived out her final hours, and take the afternoon to scope out the churches in Laodciea and Pamukkale before you turn in for the night.

Day 2
Start your day with a filling breakfast before you take the day to see the churches in Hierapolis, Philadelphia, Sardis, and Thyatira. In between archaeological sites important to Christianity, learn about the lifestyles of Greeks and Romans as you snap photos of the remains of their magnificent bath houses, temples, theatres, and libraries. In the evening, grab dinner at your hotel in Pergamom and rest up for your final day.

Day 3
Wake up and visit the Asclepium in Pergamom to find out how sick Greeks and Romans were treated for spiritual and physical ailments using methods like healing spring waters, prayer, and dream therapy. Afterwards, make your return to the airport to catch your flight back to Istanbul, stopping off at the Izmir's oldest church on the way if time allows.
