Great tour, excellent guide, fantastic would highly recommend
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.
Great guides. Great information! Don’t take the cruise line tours they are so expensive!
It could not have been a better choice for us. There were no surprises we had a great time.
el costo realmente es economico si tomamos en cuenta que es medio dia o dia completo lo que se ve aprende en efeso no tiene valor la cultura y placer no se compran se viven
We all had a great time, plenty to see and do. What a wonderful day, thank you so much.
La visita a Efeso, è una tra le più straordinarie che si possa fare in Turchia.
La sua splendida architettura era dedicata alla dea Artemide, il suo grande tempio, era considerato come una delle Sette Meraviglie del Mondo Antico. Efeso è di grande interesse per i cristiani dato che c’è la casa della Vergine Maria, si ritiene che la Vergine Maria venne a Efeso per sfuggire alla persecuzione cristiana e vivere gli ultimi giorni della sua vita. La casa dove si pensa abbia vissuto si trova in cima a una montagna e può essere visitata liberamente.
Abbiamo ammirato il teatro , il ginnasio, i bagni, l’agorà e la biblioteca di Celso, che custodiva 12.000 rotoli nelle nicchie delle pareti. La biblioteca, recentemente restaurata, è stata costruita in onore di Celso Gaio.
Ultima delle meraviglie che abbiamo visitato durante il nostro tour della Turchia, Efeso ci è particolarmente piaciuta, inoltre è uno dei più grandi e meglio conservati siti dell’antichità.
Meta di tantissimi turisti che con le navi da crociera approdano ad Izmir tutto belissimo ritornare cuesti anni si dio lo voli
