The group had a great time in Ephesus. In all, this was the most wonderful tour.
que mejor que viajar solos en un tour privado las cosas se hacen segun el gusto de uno…
This is an unusual museum set in beautiful gardens. We have no interest in trains but found the display quite fascinating. Amongst other international locomotives, it was a treat for us Brits to see Robert Stephenson engines. Also to be able to walk through Kemal Attaturk's private train which appeared to be in original condition.
Thank you very much for your recommendation.
A great way to see Ephesus on a budget. Highly recommended.
We had a half day tour of the ruins of Ephesus. We had a great time. Thanks
