I booked a private tour for 8 people for a one day cruise stop in November, at the port of izmir my booking was done through email.
The tour of the Ancient City of Ephesus and the Terrace houses was incredible. A fabulous day! Thank you.
We had a Mercedes van and were very comfortable. I highly recommend this tour…
Regards to Yesim and many thanks for a super day.
It was a great day with so much to see in such a beautiful, clean city!
Our guide was a great guide full of historical knowledge as well as answering questions about the land and people.
I especially liked the little village Sirence that we visited. The people were so friendly and the village gave us the opportunity to purchase gifts to take home that were handmade.
una de las cosas que mas me gusto del tour privado fue que las van son realmente muy confortables y son de lujo ademas el guia que tuvimos fue muy bueno ya que hablaba espanol y se veia que conocia muy bien el lugar tenia mucho conocimiento de la historia se su pais que no nos quedo ninguna duda sobre lo que vimos… eso fue lo que corresponde a la comodidad y de el tour fue efeso y la casa de la virgen maria dentro de efeso estan las casas terrazas se ve que eran casas de lujo me gusto bastante, efeso es una antigua ciudad que la verdad me parece que esta en muy buen estado lo bueno es que siguen las excavciones espero que cuando vuelva a ir .. cosa que hare lo mas pronto posible es que vere mas cosas ya desenterradas de las ruinas…

nos recomendaron private tour en nuestro viaje, con mi esposa hemos hecho varios viajes atravez del mundo pero la diferencia la vivimos con ese tour ya que nos entrego todo tipo de comodidaes el auto privado aire acondicionado en eso dias de calor:) y un guia maravilloso, la verdad la recomiendo a ojos cerrados fue uno de los mejores tour que vivi con mi mujer…
Turkey Ephesus is an amazing must see destination!. I was glad I went with a guide as she knew a wealth of information that couldn’t be found just by walking around by ourselves. Thanks
Terrific tour, you will enjoy Epheus-Turkey so much more if you go on this tour.
la verdad creo que lo mejor que he hecho a sido tomar este tour privado de dia completo por efeso aparte vimos la casa de la virgen maria la basilica de san juan el templo de artemisa y tambien comimos muy pero muy bien la comida realmente es maravillosa creo que habre subido un par de kilos mientras estaba en turquia 🙂 el guia que nos recibio al salir del crusero era muy bueno y divertido se llamaba ALÄ° se ve que es una buena persona y tambien bastante conocida en todos los lugares que entramos lo conocian y lo saludaban bien cordialmente el tiempo que pasamos con el fue muy grato,, no puedo dejar pasar tambien que es muy profesional cada lugar de efeso casa esquina de la casa de la virgen maria o de el templo de artemisa fue todo muy bien explicado tan bien que no sentimos la necesidad de preguntar algo recomiendo sin duda alguna a mi guia y a la agencia…
