todo magnifico fue impresionante el paseo por efeso y la casa de la virgen maria donde se dice que vivio sus ultimos dias es un lugar bastante espiritual me gusto les doy un diez por la gran lavor que hicieron con nosotros en tan poco tiempo consiguieron que vieramos mucho…..
We were very pleased with our tour to Ephesus and the Terrace Houses for sure, include this in your tour!! We were concerned because we requested it only about 5 days before we left for our cruise. They responded very quickly and we confirmed the reservation. We also appreciated that we were able to pay after the trip, so we did not have to worry about paying then no one showing up.
A private tour is so much better and less expensive than any group tour the cruise ships offer.
WE HAD A GREAT TIME. THANKS
What is amazing is the way one can almost walk through the streets of the city and imagine how the city was organised in those time by seeing the ruins on both sides.
