la paz y la tranquilidad de la casa de la virgen maria es un lugar que siempre esta bien temperado…. efeso es un lugar muy caluroso pero vale la pena visitarla es un mundo diferente dentro de la modernidad actual
cuando entre a efeso me acorde de todas las peliculas de gladiadores que vi 🙂 cuando entre al anfiteatro me acorde de eso y cuando vi la biblioteca me imagine todo con velas y la gente con los libros de esas epocas la verdad me gusto muchisimo el tour estuvo buenisimo todo costo su precio
EFESO ES UNA DE LAS COSAS MAS LÄ°NDAS QUE HE VÄ°STO EN MÄ° VÄ°DA ESTUVE EN OTROS PAÄ°SES PERO ESTAS RUÄ°NAS CREO QUE SON UNA DE LAS MEJORES CONSERVADAS QUE HE VÄ°STO LA VERDAD ME GUSTO MUCHÄ°SÄ°MO Y SÄ° ESO LO ACOMPANAMOS CON UN BUEN TOUR PRÄ°VADO Y UNA BUENA A TENCÄ°ON SE VUELVE LAS VACACÄ°ONES DE ENSUENOS
sin duda alguna tienen que contratar un tour privado de dia completo o medio dia esta todo muy bien programado la unica diferencia es el almuerzo y los tiempos de visita que la verdad en medio dia se ven casi las mismas cosas ya que las mas importantes son efeso y la casa de la virgen maria
yo tambien creo que es un tour privado genial yo contrate uno de dia completo y la verdad quede fascinada la casa de la virgen maria efeso y el templo de artemisa me gustaron muchisimo en efeso me senti como una expectadora mas de las luchas en el coliseo 🙂 todo perfecto 🙂
HAY MUCHOS LUGARES DONDE VÄ°SÄ°TAR PERO UNA DE LAS MAS HERMOSAS ES LA ANTÄ°GUA CÄ°UDAD PORTUARÄ°A DE EFESO Y TAMBÄ°EN NO HAY QUE OLVÄ°DAD LA MAJESTUOSA CASA DE LA VÄ°RGEN MARÄ°A SON UNA DE LOS DOS LUGARES QUE HAY QUE Ä°R SÄ°N FALTA SÄ° VAS A ESE PAÄ°S RECOMENDADO AL CÄ°EN….
el guia que nos toco creo que era uno de los mejores conocia todo perfectamente no nos dejo sin responder ninguna pregunta que le hicimos el tour de medio dia fue perfecto para nosotros ya que el crusero no nos dio mucho tiempo pero valio la pena ir y ver esas hermosas ruinas de efeso y la casa de la virgen maria
quede encantadisima con todo lo que vi fotografie casi todo el tour creo que llene la memo de diez y seis gb 🙂 vale la pena el dinero que se paga hasta el ultimo centavo el guia el coche con su chofer efeso y la casa de la virgen maria fueron perfectos creo que volvere… a todo esto dejo recomendada la agencia es muy buena y se preocupan por su comodides
me parecio todo genial efeso es un lugar que todos tienen que ire un lugar maravilloso
O tour de meio dia é o ideal para nós, não têm muito tempo para que o tipless cruzeiro foi curto de tempo, mas Éfeso e a casa da Virgem Maria é um dos locais mais importantes para ver e aquilo que vimos gostamos muito um dia estaremos de volta
