Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
Excellent…the other couple on our tour did not show so we had the guide to ourselves and this of clourse meant more time exploring the area of Ephesus. I have been to the ephesus four time previously and I saw more this time than on any other previous occasion.
Thank you very much – we had a great time!
This was one of the best and most economical tours of our cruise and we certainly recommend that anyone visiting kusadasi consider this tour.
The best of all the tours we did. The AC van, guide, driver, and lunch excellent.
Very interesting and informative trip. The tour guide was very friendly, fun and knowledgeable in the history of ephesus. Highly recommend this!
