una de las cosas que mas me gusto del tour privado fue que las van son realmente muy confortables y son de lujo ademas el guia que tuvimos fue muy bueno ya que hablaba espanol y se veia que conocia muy bien el lugar tenia mucho conocimiento de la historia se su pais que no nos quedo ninguna duda sobre lo que vimos… eso fue lo que corresponde a la comodidad y de el tour fue efeso y la casa de la virgen maria dentro de efeso estan las casas terrazas se ve que eran casas de lujo me gusto bastante, efeso es una antigua ciudad que la verdad me parece que esta en muy buen estado lo bueno es que siguen las excavciones espero que cuando vuelva a ir .. cosa que hare lo mas pronto posible es que vere mas cosas ya desenterradas de las ruinas…

The scenery was breathtaking, enjoyed every minute of it. The Microlight was very comfortable and the scenic flight was great value for money and great friendly and experienced pilot.
Driver was very friendly and knowledgable
The van was comfortable, the driver was careful and always timely with pick ups. It was a wonderful experience.
We booked a private tour of Ephesus from our cruise ship. The tour guide and that air conditioned van made a huge difference.
Highly recommend for his expertise and a positive can do attitude. The shops are generally too small to allow a wheelchair inside, but some goods are displayed outside.
Gunes was an excellent guide. We had a lovely day lunch was very good, and the group really enjoyed themselves. Highly recommended and I hope you get Gunes!
I don’t think I could have made a better choice. Booking in advance was painless and all questions and emails were answered promptly.
Interesting but the works have not been finished yet so not much to see. Your guide will tell you more info on them though
we had a great time at ephesus. lovely day 🙂
