We had a very nice lunch there as part of the tour a super experience I highly recommend this tour
les dejo un pequeno dato que espero les sirva de algo; las personas que viajan a otros paises y a turquia creen que un tour privado es mucho mas caro e incluso el doble mas caro que lo normal pero les informo que eso es un error un tour privado es mucho mas barato… yo coji este tour privado de dia completo y creanme que me salio mucho menos de lo que cuesta viajar con 50 personas…. disfruten de este tour vale la pena
We did a private half day tour of Ephesus, We really enjoyed Ephesus and the terrace houses. Thanks
We had a wonderful time on our tour of Ephesus and House of Virgin Mary. Our guide, Yesim, was so nice and a very knowledgeable tour guide. There were only 7 of us on the tour and we really had a nice time meeting the other people on our tour.
We went to Kirazli Village after a day of touring Ephesus. We had lunch at the very top of the hill at a restaurant where they cooked on open fired overlooking the hillside view. I loved the food and ambiance of the restaurant and the town. The people were lovely.
Kirazli is a rural village in a lovely setting in hills above Kusadasi. Its a charming place in my opinion the privatetour was the best part this because of the beautiful nature with extraordinary view along the hillside, with fruittreas in blooming. But you cant be afraid of hights.. the road is very narrow 🙂 Definitely worth a visit.
Thank you very much – we had a great time!
The van was comfortable, the driver was careful and always timely with pick ups. It was a wonderful experience.
The tour began at approximately 8:30 and we were told it would be approximately 5 hours. We did not arrive back to port until after 2:30, so it made for a very long day.
