A visit to a local leather factory outlet offers a fascinating look into one of Turkey's most prestigious traditional industries, renowned for producing some of the highest-quality, "silk-soft" lambskin leather in the world. The experience typically begins with an upbeat, high-energy fashion show where professional models showcase the latest collections of jackets, vests, and coats to music. Following the runway, you’ll be invited into the showroom to feel the remarkable lightweight texture of the garments—including the famous reversible designs—and enjoy a glass of Turkish tea while browsing a vast selection of handmade jackets, handbags, and accessories.

A visit to a traditional Turkish Delight and Spice Market is a sensory-rich finale to your day. You’ll step into a vibrant world where the air is thick with the mingling aromas of freshly ground coffee, sweet rosewater, and pungent saffron.

What to Expect:
The "Lokum" Experience: You’ll be greeted with samples of authentic Turkish Delight (Lokum). Unlike the pre-packaged versions, these are often hand-rolled with premium ingredients like honey, pomegranate, barberries, and roasted pistachios.

A Spice Master's Library: Browse rows of colorful, conical mounds of spices. Keep an eye out for Pul Biber (Aleppo pepper), Sumac (a tangy purple berry powder), and specialized "Ottoman Blends" for meat and vegetables.

Beyond the Sweets: Many of these markets also serve as "natural pharmacies," offering local flower teas, herbal remedies, and high-quality Aegean olive oil products.

After the tour there will be a stop at Artemis Temple for a photo stop.

the Ephesus Ancient City offers a breathtaking descent through history, beginning at the Upper Gate and winding down the monumental Curetes Way. You’ll explore the political hub of the State Agora before reaching the architectural crown jewel: the Library of Celsus, whose towering facade remains one of the most iconic sights of the Roman world. The journey concludes at the massive Great Theater, which once echoed with the voices of 25,000 citizens, before you exit via the ancient Harbor Street, walking the same marble paths once trod by emperors and apostles alike.
