Once you arrive there, the guide will provide a complete overview of the site, and explain the key characteristics of the ruins. In fact, Didyma projects the area’s long history, even before the formation of the Ionian Confederacy. After spending some time exploring the site, the bus will start driving you back to Kusadasi. This full day excursion finishes in the afternoon, with a drop off at your hotel. When you arrive back, expect to be full of nice images, and great memories from this experience.
