Instead of taking the ships tour we booked a private tour and it was a great day.
We booked a private tour of Ephesus from our cruise ship. The tour guide and that air conditioned van made a huge difference.
estoy aca para recomendar de todo corazon el tour privado que entrega esta empresa realmente es un privilegio tener todo un equipo a tu disposicion un buen guia que realmente sabe tu idioma un coche de lujo y el tour muy bien organizado… como dije es un tour que recomiendo de todo corazon.
My wife and I recently returned from a 10 day cruise. Based on ratings of this site, we decided to book a private tour of ephesus instead of opting for the cruise option. It was a great decision on our part. In booking the tour, all questions were answered promptly, and we were provided all the needed information. We met our guide at the dock. I would highly recommend.
Chegamos no Brasil, a verdade a Turquia foi um destino muito distante para nós, nesta viagem, visitamos a antiga cidade de Éfeso e a casa da Virgem Maria, para que nós não temos muito tempo, mas posso garantir-vos que vamos voltar e com toda a família Da próxima vez que ir a Éfeso, creio que vamos ter uma excursão de dia inteiro pra conhecer mais lugares que acho que com apenas uma vez que não é possível conhecer toda a cultura do lugar, nem compreender as coisas que foram feitas em Éfeso
Obrigado por tudo o que nos foi oferecido como uma agência de viagens e obrigado por nos dar um bom guia….
Small group which makes a difference when visiting a large places and even though small group appreciated the hearing pieces from the group leader.
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.
The group had a great time in Ephesus. In all, this was the most wonderful tour.
Our guide was very helpful. He adpted our tour to my hancicap and our centers of interest. We were able to see the maximum in the minimum time with expert comments.
We would not have enjoyed Turkey as much as we did if we had not taken this tour. The tour picked us up at the cruise terminal. We knew the sites we were going visit but our tour guide suggested the order to visit that would suit us best.
