Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
Done a half day trip to ephesus, it really is amazing, and steeped in history. They are still uncovering ruins to this day. It gives you a real insight into time gone by.
We were travelling on a cruise ship with 3 couples and booked a private tour our tour guide seemed to get us to each place before the big crowds arrived thanks.
This tour was booked as from a cruise ship arrival for 10 people. I must say we realy enjoyed we had a great time.
Regards to Yesim and many thanks for a super day.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time. Thanks
Terrace Houses was great,
fui a turquia dos veces y las dos fueron muy distintas la primera vez tome un tour de dia completo con esta misma agencia fue maravilloso pero dejenme decirles que esta segunda vez tuvimos que tomar uno de solo medio dia ya que fuimos con un crucero y dejenme decirles que la verdad no fue una gran diferencia ya que sea dia completo o medio dia la atencion el la misma los coches son iguales y los guias tambien tengan la seguridad que volvere por una tercera…
esperame turquia, efesoooo
the ruins of the ancient city of ephesus are a mustsee for people visiting turkey they are difficult to get to so it’s best to go by private tour.
Those with air sick, please prepare yourself before going on this Microlight tour !
We all love a old little beautiful village, ephesus and virgin marys house was absolutely fabulous.
