The tour of Ephesus was amazing. A must-visit place if you visit Turkey. I would highly recommend this tour company to anyone who is travelling to Turkey and to Ephesus. fantastic!
It could not have been a better choice for us. There were no surprises we had a great time.
I arranged a tour before going on a Mediterrian cruise. We did an amazing tour of Ephesus and Sirence village with the lovely and incredibly knowledgeable guide. Thank you for a memorable and informative day!
Thanks so much for the great day
we had a great time at ephesus. lovely day 🙂
Excellent. Not the cheapest of tours, but if you really want to see ephesus ancient city ,this is the way to do it. Everything was perfect. the pick-up, the tour, the lunch, and most of all.the guide.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time. Thanks
It is really worth seeing. Restroom facilities at the entry are limited and very crowded. There are also restrooms near the exit and they are not crowded.
Our turkish guide, koksal, is a native of ephesus who speaks English and japanese he was outgoing, friendly, interested in his guests, and extremely knowledgeable of the history of ephesus. excellent
The Virgin Mary’s home was interesting, but the tour of Ephesus was fascinating and very memorable. Fortunately our tour contact suggested we also visit the Terrace Homes, another great experience. Our guides were personable and gave us great insight into that period of time. We had a lunch of Turkish favorite dishes in a beautiful outdoor setting.
