    If you arrive in Ephesus via cruise, definitely skip any excursions offered by your cruise line and book a private tour with Ephesus Tours. Not only is it much cheaper, it’s more comfortable, private, and you can go at your own pace.

    My family and I took a deluxe half day tour just last week. Our guide was excellent friendly knowledgeable and very funny and very comfortable Mercedes that felt more like a limo than a van.

    We visited the Ephesus ruins first fantastic. The terrace houses wa great I highly recommend, especially if you’re interested in art.

    We then visited the house of the virgin mary. It’s actually a church built on the foundations of the house, not the actual house itself. Maybe the experience would be more inspiring or impressive to someone religious, but to me the actual site was pretty ho-hum. But the views during the drive there are spectacular, and that alone makes the trip worthwhile.

    But overall, everything was great. We had a wonderful time in Ephesus Turkey and would definitely recommend this tour!

    逛完整个以弗所费时2小时,但是绝对值得。经由导游的解说,才知道土耳其人用的蓝色玻璃眼珠的来源。走在大理石大道上,两旁的纪念碑,伟人雕像,及一家一家的店面,可以感受当时的商业的发达。从那座雄伟的Celcus图书馆,就可想象当时的文化水准很高。哦,还有雕了大力士的石柱也不能错过。

    Impressive and extensive ruins that you actually walk through and can touch, Not like ruins in Rome that are fenced or roped off to keep you from touching anything. An offered side tour within Ephesus are the Terrace Houses which are enclosed in a large shelter and which you walk through or over on scaffolding and the House of Virgin Mary was great.

    We spent a good amount of time at ancient ephesus and house of terraces and I can tell you, a private tour is the way to go. There were many group tours that would crowd around their guide to get a glimpse of what he/she was pointing out. With a private tour, you are able to set the pace with your guide and skip what you aren’t that interested in. We also visited the House of the St Mary, Temple of Artemis. It was a full day that did not disappoint and well worth the expense.

    My wife and I recently returned from a 10 day cruise. Based on ratings of this site, we decided to book a private tour of ephesus instead of opting for the cruise option. It was a great decision on our part. In booking the tour, all questions were answered promptly, and we were provided all the needed information. We met our guide at the dock. I would highly recommend.

ephesus tours

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.
