Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
It was a great day with so much to see in such a beautiful, clean city!
Our guide was a great guide full of historical knowledge as well as answering questions about the land and people.
I especially liked the little village Sirence that we visited. The people were so friendly and the village gave us the opportunity to purchase gifts to take home that were handmade.
I would highly recommend great experience to anyone, and I am pleased to say that I had a great time
We would definitely recommend this private tour
Our tour guide was right on time picking us up directly at the port. My husband and I were part of a total party of 8, perfect for us to enjoy Ephesus without a bus load of people. This is definitely the way to see Ephesus.
Visited as part of our Adriatic & Aegean cruise. Docked in Kusadasi and this provided a short driving tour of the area around the Ephesus site.
Buy one of the books that descibes the site as a helpful resource. The site accepts only Turkish Lira or credit card payments. There is a museum in the adjacent community where many of the original artifacts are housed. The site can become crowded during the peak tourist season and is open air so if it is hot, you’ll be out in the sun the whole time.
Thank you very much to you and yesim.
Definitely worth the money to get the private tour.
A very nice place to spend a few hours.Lots of trains to see and a very nice restaurant.
Yesim was interesting, informative and a wonderful guide. Our entire family enjoyed the day. Yesim made adjustments for our daughter’s unexpected injury and wheelchair. We could not have seen ephesus on our own because of logistics and in hindsight we are glad we booked the day trip. Our three teenagers had fun and we were glad to hear Yesim explanations.
Thank you very much for the Mystery Tours
