The price of our private tour was much less than the tours provided by our ship, The Norwegian Jade. It was a great tour.
This tour was booked as from a cruise ship arrival for 10 people. I must say we realy enjoyed we had a great time.
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.

Thank you Yesim for an incredible time. Your knowledge is most impressive. For anyone who reads this and is planning a trip to Turkey, you can not go wrong with using this company. We were never rushed or pressured into buying anything and even got to see a fashion show. This is something I never thought I would enjoy but it was pretty cool. When going to Ephesus do not miss out on the Terrace Houses they are most impressive and unbelievable. They are the homes of the very rich of the day with indoor hot and cold water, heated homes, indoor bathrooms and even a sauna with heated floors. The rug making tour was very cool, the lunch was awsome and got back to the ship with plenty of time to spare. Thanks
AMAZING!! Our tour guide was filled with so much knowledge and experience – he taught us so much, and we really enjoyed our time with him. If you have a short time in ephesus- this is the only way to go!
The Virgin Mary’s home was interesting, but the tour of Ephesus was fascinating and very memorable. Fortunately our tour contact suggested we also visit the Terrace Homes, another great experience. Our guides were personable and gave us great insight into that period of time. We had a lunch of Turkish favorite dishes in a beautiful outdoor setting.
qué lugar era impresionante y caminar por el sendero de los antiguos, era realmente una gran sensación 🙂 todo maravilloso que bueno que contrate este tour privado aun que sea de medio dia creo que me lo distribuyeron bastante bien 🙂
We had a great time and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this tour.
