What you can expect

Scope out the ruins and seaside streets of Priene, discuss the works of notable philosophers in Miletos, and dive into Greek mythology at the temple in Didyma. Embark from Istanbul on an overnight bus bound for the rich archaeological treasures scattered along Turkey's west coast.

Leave Istanbul at night as you settle into a comfortable seat and catch a few winks during your ride to Kusadasi. When you arrive, head to Priene and listen as your guide rattles off commentary about this inland site, which was once perched at the edge of the Mediterranean. Check out ruins from the 4th century, including the Temple of Athena and Altar of Zeus, and then continue on to Miletus, where the Pre-Socratic philosopher Thales once resided.

Chat about his teachings as you meander between crumbling columns and weather-worn marble stairs, grab lunch at a locally loved restaurant, and then wrap up your day hearing about Didyma's oracle at the Temple of Apollo. After riding back to Kusadasi, hop aboard another night bus and return to Istanbul under a starry Turkish sky.
