Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
So we were three friends who came to Turkey for vacation and education at the same time. Majoring in world History by the way. We have decided to see and explore Ephesus and because we had our own group of friends and knew exactly why we were travelling there we all decided to do a private tour. We were interested in no shopping but gain as much historical information as possible. We needed a great and interesting guide. I have to really be honest, We all had a blast during this tour. As a history student, I can recommend this tour to almost anybody.
Regards to Yesim and many thanks for a super day.
Ephesus was our favorite port of call. Our guide was extremely courteous, knowledgeable about everything from antiquities, to agriculture, and even funny the tour is much less expensive than the ship offerings and far superior in terms of attention.
we had a great time at ephesus. lovely day 🙂
This is good value for money, we were picked up and dropped off to the port. Our mistake was only taking the half day tour. Ephesus only needs a minimum 4 hour.
Amazing experience with excellent tour guide. One of the favourite private tours of our ephesus trip!
Now I wish ? have book the fullday ephesus tours since it will give you more in dept but again, this company offers top services.
A great way to see Ephesus on a budget. Highly recommended.
We chose a private guided tour rather than a ship excursion and “I Would Definitely Recommend”
