We cannot recommend this tour enough. The transportation was top of the line and our guide and driver were outstanding. We thought it was an excellent value as well.
Outstanding, our guide was great.
Local goods include handmade felt products, wines, and olive oils to name only the most popular.
The streets, shops, cafe's and restaurants are basic and serve simple, tasty local food with fresh herbs and flavours.
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!
After visiting the House of Mary, we drove to the historic ruins at the city of Ephesus. We saw all the things on our wish list, plus things we did even know about. We left the ruins and went to a carpet factory and saw firsthand how the carpets are hand tied. Then we had lunch, in a lovely garden setting, featuring traditional Turkish dishes, delicious a private tour is so much better and less expensive than any group tour the cruise ships offer.
This tour was booked as from a cruise ship arrival for 10 people. I must say we realy enjoyed we had a great time.
We had a wonderful time and everything was a great.
This tour was less than the cruise tour. we had a fab..time. thx
We enjoyed the whole trip and would do it again. Thanks
Ephesus foi uma das 12 cidades de Jonia (antiga região grega na costa oeste da Ásia Menor). Na antiguidade foi uma grande cidade (a segunda maior do Império Romano, por muitos anos), porto de partida para o comércio na região e conhecida por seus santuários sagrados. Foi uma das Sete Igrejas da Ásia citadas no livro do Apocalipse. O Evangelho de São João pode ter sido escrito na cidade, onde o cristianismo mais se difundiu. As escavações no local tiveram início em 1863 e, de lá para cá, têm revelado muitas construções antigas, incluindo templos, casas, edifícios públicos, igrejas e um magnífico teatro.
O atendimento dos funcionários é muito bom, especialmente na loja de suvenires – todos falam inglês fluente e são bastante atenciosos.
Os ônibus de turismo nos deixam próximos da entrada principal. Explorar Ephesus significa estar disposto a uma caminhada de pelo menos 2 horas, ruas abaixo. À medida em que descemos, mais surpresas temos, pois o melhor, está no final do passeio.
Vale a pena conhecer! Caminhar pela rua principal, ver as ruínas do Templo de Adriano, o grande Anfiteatro, a Biblioteca de Celso e outras construções que ainda estão sendo reveladas, é surpreendente! As escavações estão revelando, lentamente, como era a vida nesta cidade.
A visita é indescritível. Para quem gosta de História, é imperdível. eu goste de tudo voltaremos o mais rapido posible em esse ano… obrigado agencia obrigado guia fico tudo bem…
