Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
We had a wonderful time and thank you so much for everything.
If you arrive in Ephesus via cruise, definitely skip any excursions offered by your cruise line and book a private tour with Ephesus Tours. Not only is it much cheaper, it’s more comfortable, private, and you can go at your own pace.
My family and I took a deluxe half day tour just last week. Our guide was excellent friendly knowledgeable and very funny and very comfortable Mercedes that felt more like a limo than a van.
We visited the Ephesus ruins first fantastic. The terrace houses wa great I highly recommend, especially if you’re interested in art.
We then visited the house of the virgin mary. It’s actually a church built on the foundations of the house, not the actual house itself. Maybe the experience would be more inspiring or impressive to someone religious, but to me the actual site was pretty ho-hum. But the views during the drive there are spectacular, and that alone makes the trip worthwhile.
But overall, everything was great. We had a wonderful time in Ephesus Turkey and would definitely recommend this tour!
We spent the day in Ephesus with our guide Irem. She was excellent! She went with us in to the sites and explained what we were seeing. Turkey is absolutely beautiful and a place I would love to visit again. We toured the ruins in Ephesus, the House of the Virgin Mary, and the church of St. John. We could have done without the carpet shop and leather factory, but overall the day was perfect. Our lunch was very good and was included in the price of the tour. I would definitely recommend this for those of you with a one day stop in Turkey on a cruise ship.
What an absolutely fantastic day it was my 38 th birthday and I couldn’t have spent it in any better way! Our guide Selcuk was very knowledgeable and entertaining, lunch was delicious and Ephesus magical especially the Terrace Houses and House of Virgin Mary. Could have stayed forever.:) All in all a very well organised private tour.
