Fuimos en diciembre que supuestamente es uno de los meses de temporada baja debido al clima frío, y era bastante bloody frío con luz llovizna, pero porque estaba justo después de Navidad, el lugar estaba bastante lleno. No me puedo imaginar lo que es durante la temporada alta. Pero si tienes paciencia suficiente, es posible que puedes conseguir fotos de un lugar quieres simplemente por ti mismo.Si tienes paciencia, puede tomar un gran cuadro o dos de la hermosa Celsus Biblioteca dentro de esta antigua ciudad gratis, o casi gratis, de otros viajeros o turistas, pero tienes que ser paciente. Quizás esto es imposible durante la temporada de verano jaja …
Tras la Celsus Biblioteca, podrá caminar a lo largo de la calle de mármol y encontrará algún tipo de construcción/sitio de extracción a la derecha. parece prohibido entrar, obviamente, por razones de seguridad, pero he visto un par de turistas entrar a escondidas y tomar el camino bastante empinada esta estructura prohibida y estoy seguro la vista desde allí es bastante increíble. Si intenta valiente, que no oír desde aquí …
Fui con mis parientes aquí y, como algunos de ellos no son muy aficionados a la historia y están más interesados en los espectaculares paisajes naturales, Éfeso es algo interesante, pero no está tan bien como otras atracciones en Turquía para ellos. la verdad vale a cien porciento todo centavo pagado
Love it ! Ephesus is simply beautiful. We had no trouble understanding our guide. Lunch wasn’t fantastic but everything else is good!
The best of all the tours we did. The AC van, guide, driver, and lunch excellent.
Ephesus is one of the most interesting of all the Greek cities on the Asia Minor Peninsula. We had a great tour. Thanks
Ephesus – the city established in 10 BC is a must visit for anyone having an interest in history. What is amazing is the way one can almost walk through the streets of the city and imagine how the city was organised in those time by seeing the ruins on both sides.
The site is surprisingly easy to access from Selcuk (5 km) or Kusadasi (15 km)
Be sure to take ample sun protection and water on the tour since one cannot get anything in the middle of the ruins,

Ephesus was our favorite port of call. Our guide was extremely courteous, knowledgeable about everything from antiquities, to agriculture, and even funny the tour is much less expensive than the ship offerings and far superior in terms of attention.
The trip was very well organized and our guide was excellent. We didn’t have to wait in long lines even though the ephesus was crowded. Our guide was very knowlegable and the little mini-headsets made the tour most enjoyable.
Thank you very much to you and yesim.
We used this tour instead of booking a tour through the cruise company. We had a half day tour of the ruins of Ephesus and The Virgin Mary’s house. We were also taken to a carpet maker to see how carpets were made and lunch. The carpet demonstration was interesting however, I did feel uncomfortable not making a purchase.
