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.
Found our guide outside the port (amongst a dozen others) with him holding a sign with our names. We had a very knowledgeable English speaking guide + a driver in a spacious air conditioned minivan. Very interesting archeological site.
Highly recommend for his expertise and a positive can do attitude. The shops are generally too small to allow a wheelchair inside, but some goods are displayed outside.
The tour was incredible and a highlight of our trip. I would highly recommend this tour company as they were very professional and the price was very reasonable.
It was a great day with so much to see in such a beautiful city
Not just the history of what we were visiting, but the history of many topics!
a very enjoyable half day,would not hesitate to recommend this tour.
Em primeiro lugar, gostaria de dizer que foi o melhor passeio da minha vida eu conheci a cidade antiga de Éfeso a casa da Virgem Maria, a terraço casas de Éfeso a rua do agora o coliseu de Éfeso e também conheci uma pessoa maravilhosa que foi o meu guia em português. O que eu gostei mais foi a antiga cidade de Éfeso a verdade é muito impressionante, imagino como essas pessoas que viviam naquele tempo acho que havia muito mais sábio que agora e muito mais respeitável respectoral tour a verdade não há muito a dizer, pois foi sem dúvida muito bem preparado tudo. O carro de luxo da atenção que a profecionalismo condutor-guia bem preparado e bem informado sobre o local das refeições típicas meu deus foi tudo maravilhoso recomendo 100 % o tour privado de dia inteiro e meio dia só são menos coisas, mas a atenção é realmente o mesmo que de primeira qualidade
Ephesus was a great place to visit whe have a wonderful day.
Great guides. Great information! Don’t take the cruise line tours they are so expensive!
