Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
The Terrace Houses are amazing. Our guide gave us a very nice little gift bag with some very thoughtful souvenirs(this never happened with our cruise tours) and brochures of other destinations in Turkey that look wonderful too. Thank you
Done a day trip to ephesus, it really is amazing, and steeped in history. They are still uncovering ruins to this day. It gives you a real insight into time gone by.
Emrah was fantastic. We had a wonderful trip and his commentary to and from Ephesus was fantastic.
This was the perfect tour to see all of Ephesus in a limited amount of time.
We had a brilliant day. Our guides were more than helpful and Ephesus and the Mary house was beautiful. I personally enjoyed most seeing the little village Sirince.The transport was well arranged and arrived in perfect time. The guides’ considerations were all for our benefit and I cannot speak too highly of their input to our enjoyment of the day. I could not recommend this trip too highly to anyone else considering it, it was most enjoyable but please do consider the full day rather than the halfday ephesus tour as you would miss out on so much.
We all had a great time, plenty to see and do. What a wonderful day, thank you so much.
when we visited kusadasi turkey our guide yesim was marvelous and very knowledgeable. she spoke flawless english. we even had a few minutes of shopping. we would whole-heartedly recommend this company and this guide in particular.
Excellent way to see the city without being in a big crowd, you call the shots on what you see and how long you stay. Great way to get your bearings around the ephesus city and the guide was very informative. Very comfortable air conditioned vehicle.
The scenery was breathtaking, enjoyed every minute of it. The Microlight was very comfortable and the scenic flight was great value for money and great friendly and experienced pilot.
Exceptional tour with Turkey and Ephesus Vision. Great and well informed guide with small group of 5. Delightful lunch at restaurant. Dropped back the port of kusadasi fabulous day.
