Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
Olá, gostaria de dizer que foi tudo muito bom, tivemos um maravilhoso guia explicou-nos tudo como deve ser é que ele é uma pessoa que conhece o lugar, o carro era muito bom a comida era muito boa, o que eu gostei mais foi a casa da Virgem Maria Éfeso, eu gostei muito da biblioteca de Celso e o Coliseu, posso dizer que foi sem pensar que foi a melhor tour privado que eu vi na minha vida
Visited as part of our Adriatic & Aegean cruise. Docked in Kusadasi and this provided a short driving tour of the area around the Ephesus site.
Buy one of the books that descibes the site as a helpful resource. The site accepts only Turkish Lira or credit card payments. There is a museum in the adjacent community where many of the original artifacts are housed. The site can become crowded during the peak tourist season and is open air so if it is hot, you’ll be out in the sun the whole time.
We would definitely recommend this private tour
The best of all the tours we did. The AC van, guide, driver, and lunch excellent.
highly recommend..
Sea un tour de medio dia o de dia completo creanme que realmente es una de las experiencias mas maravillos que puede vivir un ser humano, la historia, cultura,emocion y la sensacion que da el estar en ese lugar realmente es unica… la verdad yo les recomiendo un tour privado porque??? es mi segunda vez en turquia la primera fue con un grupo de 40 personas no fue malo pero a mi y mi mujer nos gustan las cosas un poco exlusivas por eso tomamos un tour privado y la verdad vimos las diferencias de negro a blanco es una atencion muy esmerada la que entrega tu guia conductor y la calidad de los coches que realmente a cada persona que conosco le recomiendo tomar un tour privado para visitar efeso….
We had a wonderful trip and would definitely recommend
