una de las cosas que mas me gusto del tour privado fue que las van son realmente muy confortables y son de lujo ademas el guia que tuvimos fue muy bueno ya que hablaba espanol y se veia que conocia muy bien el lugar tenia mucho conocimiento de la historia se su pais que no nos quedo ninguna duda sobre lo que vimos… eso fue lo que corresponde a la comodidad y de el tour fue efeso y la casa de la virgen maria dentro de efeso estan las casas terrazas se ve que eran casas de lujo me gusto bastante, efeso es una antigua ciudad que la verdad me parece que esta en muy buen estado lo bueno es que siguen las excavciones espero que cuando vuelva a ir .. cosa que hare lo mas pronto posible es que vere mas cosas ya desenterradas de las ruinas…

We spent a good amount of time at ancient ephesus and house of terraces and I can tell you, a private tour is the way to go. There were many group tours that would crowd around their guide to get a glimpse of what he/she was pointing out. With a private tour, you are able to set the pace with your guide and skip what you aren’t that interested in. We also visited the House of the St Mary, Temple of Artemis. It was a full day that did not disappoint and well worth the expense.
a very enjoyable half day,would not hesitate to recommend this tour.
I booked a private tour for 8 people for a one day cruise stop in November, at the port of izmir my booking was done through email.
The tour of the Ancient City of Ephesus and the Terrace houses was incredible. A fabulous day! Thank you.
La capital de Jonia…La ciudad de Artemisa…la segunda ciudad mas importante del imperio romano…El mayor museo el aire libre del mundo…
A lo mejor me fui mil veces a Efeso, cada vez tengo la misma emocion , la misma preocupacion de explicar muy bien la ciudad de Efeso. Porque hay que explicar todo , sin olvidarse de ningun detalle de la ciudad…porque es una ”JOYA” , es un regalo de los romanos y otras civilizaciones a Turquia.Teniendo esta importancia historica hay que explicarla con todos sus detalles.
Es una ciudad greco-romana, una de las siete maravillas del mundo se encuentra aqui.Tiene templos dedicados a Domiciano y a Hadriano, fuentes monumentales, calles de marmol blanco, con capiteles jonicos , coritios y compuestos…Despues de caminar bastante y ver muchos monumentos por el camino al final llegan a ”La Biblioteca de Celso ” se quedan sorprendidos , por que justo en frente ustedes tienen la tercera biblioteca nas grande del mundo….ES la obra MAESTRA de Efeso…
Al final llegan al Gran Teatro de Efeso ,aqui no sirven las palabras y frases , hay que verlo, un teatro con una capacidad de 24.000 espectadores…
Este es Efeso, las palabras no sirven para explicar este viaje en ”la historia”… la magia de esta antigua ciudad hay que vivirla en persona se los recomiendo es maravilloso
The group had a great time in Ephesus. In all, this was the most wonderful tour.
We were very pleased with our tour to Ephesus and the Terrace Houses for sure, include this in your tour!! We were concerned because we requested it only about 5 days before we left for our cruise. They responded very quickly and we confirmed the reservation. We also appreciated that we were able to pay after the trip, so we did not have to worry about paying then no one showing up.
