Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
Our guide sat and chatted with us the entire way to Ephesus about Turkish history, lifestyle, and some chitchat. At Ephesus she gave as a solid, amazing tour.
This tour was booked as from a cruise ship arrival for 10 people. I must say we realy enjoyed we had a great time.
Instead of taking the ships tour we booked a private tour and it was a great day.
It is really worth seeing. Restroom facilities at the entry are limited and very crowded. There are also restrooms near the exit and they are not crowded.
our ephesus tour was one of the highlights
The van was comfortable, the driver was careful and always timely with pick ups. It was a wonderful experience.
Thanks so much for the great day
The price of our private tour was much less than the tours provided by our ship, The Norwegian Jade. It was a great tour.
I arranged a tour before going on a Mediterrian cruise. We did an amazing tour of Ephesus and Sirence village with the lovely and incredibly knowledgeable guide. Thank you for a memorable and informative day!
Regards to Yesim and many thanks for a super day.
