Our guide was truly a blessing! She was knowledgeable and easy to understand. The vehicle we used was beautiful and very comfortable.
逛完整个以弗所费时2小时,但是绝对值得。经由导游的解说,才知道土耳其人用的蓝色玻璃眼珠的来源。走在大理石大道上,两旁的纪念碑,伟人雕像,及一家一家的店面,可以感受当时的商业的发达。从那座雄伟的Celcus图书馆,就可想象当时的文化水准很高。哦,还有雕了大力士的石柱也不能错过。
Our guide was prompt, polite, knowledgeable and honest, and we had a very careful chauffeur as well. We would certainly recommend the young gentleman, Selcuk Senkan, as a guide if you are in Ephesus Turkey.
Thank you very much to you and yesim.
This was an attraction I almost passed on, but my flight attendant recommended it. I am so glad I went! The tour of the ruins was quite spectacular and extensive, with a re-enactment of the gladiators at the end of the tour. The ruins were up-close, not roped off, and you could actually touch them!!! I was especially enamored with the library ruins.
well worth the money!!!
I would recommend a private guided tour even though there are signs with explanations all along the way.
well worth the money!!!
