Priene - Miletos - Didyma Tour by Khalid

Your tour will take you to three unique cities along the coast of Ionia. Priene was one of the most active ports of the lonian Federation and is the oldest example of geometric city planning. In ancient times, Miletos was considered one of the greatest and wealthiest cities, and this is the city which provided its alphabet to the rest of the classical world. Miletos was a great port and the hometown of several philosophers and sages. Didyma's Temple of Apollo with its well-known oracles was one of the most sacred places of antiquity. Although looted and burnt many times, the original impressions remain. Not far from the site you come upon the beautiful beach of Altinkum. Your lunch will be along the tour route. Return to Izmir in the evening.
