Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
We just wanted to let you know we had a wonderful time… It was a pleasure dealing with you and again, thank you so much for an amazing tour.
These are the most spectacular ruins that we saw when visiting Turkey. If you visit the country and have limited time, these are the ruins that you should visit. There is a lot to see at these ruins and you should allow several hours. We thought that the entrance was awesome, however there were much better sights as we walked through the place.
We were going to Kusadasi for vacation, and I told my wife I wanted to skydive, possibly a once in a lifetime opportunity. My wife, after seeing the safe and proffessional operation, decided to do her first tandem skydive. She loved it. I would like to thank the team for an experience I will never forget, throughout my skydiving career.
WE HAD A GREAT 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.
a wonderful guide and a driver
Visited as part of our Adriatic & Aegean cruise. Docked in Kusadasi and this provided a short driving tour of the area around the Ephesus site.
Buy one of the books that descibes the site as a helpful resource. The site accepts only Turkish Lira or credit card payments. There is a museum in the adjacent community where many of the original artifacts are housed. The site can become crowded during the peak tourist season and is open air so if it is hot, you’ll be out in the sun the whole time.
It was a great day with so much to see in such a beautiful city
Our guide was truly a blessing! She was knowledgeable and easy to understand. The vehicle we used was beautiful and very comfortable.
Even just outside the peak tourist season, Sirince was very busy on a Friday evening. Lots of kitschy souvenirs, but the locally made fruit wines were pleasant. The air was cooler than down below in Selcuk and this made for a very enjoyable evening.
