    This is a great introduction to all of Turkey's important historic buildings and attractions and an excellent way to 'explore' if you are in Istanbul and don't have enough days for an adventure out of the city.

    Very accurate models of each building. If you took a close photo of any model, you won't be able to till the difference between it and it's real building.

    Located by the side of the golden horn, good place to go if you have kids bored with all historic sites. There is a go cart track and models of historic sites in turkey – all set up in a kid friendly format. Audio guides are excellent!

The big tip is to try and go completely private. Many of the large tour companies offer private tour and they are going to charge a significant amount of money for the tour guide. However, many locations offer self-guided tours and therefore you have the ability to supply your own tour guide. Easily Book your guided private Ephesus tours, to see all the treasures of Ephesus Turkey. It's often said that Turkey has more ancient cities and classical ruins than does Greece. Well, it's true, and the Aegean coast holds a great number of sites, including Ephesus, the grandest and best-preserved of them all.
