プライベートツアー：ラオディケアとAphrodisiasクアダシからの日帰り旅行

Includes two of the most important sites in Western Turkey. Together, the sites give an excellent impression of Roman and Greek civilisations, especially the times of the early Christian church. The Laodician creed predates the more familiar Nicean creed. Excellently organised private tour with a very knowledge guide Ibrahim who was very clued up about the early church Two caveats. There is a lot of driving, generally on good roads. Neither site has much shade

Can’t understand why both these locations are not on Turkeys must see list for tourist! The architecture and preservation is outstanding and some structures are competing with Romes many monuments! The transportation from Kuşadası was good even had usb ports to charge you devices up and air conditioning too! The driver Ramazan knew his roads and how to get to destinations asap Irem was best guide you could ever want spoke great English and knew her facts even happy to take your photo as well! Can’t understand why this recommend trip by me is not in top 5 tours to see and do in Turkey! The place was sadly almost deserted it deserves respect for its amazing monuments that are still standing and it needs to be preserved for future tours and generations! There’s plenty of signs around or can do audio tours yourself if you have a car or located nearby! I only discovered it by googling historical sites in Turkey saw photos and knew wanted to go but many popular trip agency’s don’t list it but I found one with Fez travel as a solo traveller I was so appreciative to be there! Wanted to add more pics but a taste of what can see and there’s more!

We have just returned from a wonderful day trip to Aphrodisias. Our tour guide was Emre, he is very knowledgeable and speaks perfect English. We had never been to this site before. We ate at a local restaurant and the food (included in price) was excellent. We were collected from our sitesi at 08.30 and we were back home at 17.00 We would definitely recommend this site for a trip. Paul and Mary Ireland.

<p>Aphrodisias in the best most amazing site I visited in Turkey, even better than Ephesus. It was quite spread out and had a nice theater, bath, several temples, a Sebastian, and the only oval stadium I saw in Turkey. It was a school for artists, and the statues, friezes on the Sebastian, masques on the theater and other art were beautiful. Much of it was housed in a nice museum on site. I don't know why more people don't visit Aphrodisias -- it was one of the highlights of my trip in Turkey. Laodicea was an important banking center that is undergoing extensive restoration. it was breathtaking to look across a wide valley to see the white terraces of Pammukale spilling down the mountain and see the remains of an extensive water system that brought water from Pammukale/Hieropolis across the valley to Laodicea. The lunch stop couldn't have been better, and it was a fabulous tour.</p>

<p>Thoughts:<br/> a you'll learn more from 1hrs research on the internet than from the guide<br/> b why run the trip on a monday when the museum is closed... one of the finest collections of ancient sculpture/statuary anywhere and you cant get in to see it! very annoying<br/> That said the sites were brilliant and more than made up for a and b above, coupled with nice people on the trip and a good lunch.
