5 - 6 Hours Mini Group (Max 10 pax) Excursion to Ephesus -Entrances are included

Melis was a wonderful tour guide. Ephesus was fascinating. It was great and we would highly recommend it.

We had absolutely wonderful and interesting tour in Ephesus Turkey. Excavation site was lifetime experience and unforgettable

The guide was very professional and knowledgeable, he took the time to point out and explained clearly all landmarks in detail.

Great tour with Melih, who was an entertaining tour guide and very knowledgeable about Ephesus and its history. Transport was spotless and all completed in a timely fashion.

Our transportation and tour guide were very professional. They were waiting for us at the port as planned and the tour through Ephesus was excellent with the guide giving us lots of interesting local and historical information. It included a tour of the Terrace Houses and we were very glad to be able to see these amazing archeological finds. These are a definite "must see" if you go to Ephesus. At the end of the tour, the guide offered our group the option of seeing a local pottery and carpet making demonstration. At both stops there was encouragement to buy the local products. In particular, the carpet salespeople were quite high pressure. In retrospect, we think the tour would have been better without these final stops. That is why I rated our experience a "4" instead of a "5".

The trip was excellent. Ty met us at the port and we travelled in a top notch Sprinter van with driver to Ephesus where Ty guided us through the old city. It is muich more than any of the on line photos indicate. We visited Mary's house and a Turkish carpet cooperative and learned a lot about how they are made wilth no pressure to buy. Was well worth the money spent.

Our tour guide was excellent, knowledge and professional. . She was smart to get us to the Virgin Mary's House before the crowd got there, it saved a lot of time waiting in line. Her knowledge of the Ephesus site was also excellent.We were VERY happy with her service

We were very lucky that there were only 4 of us in this the Small Group Tour which meant our tour was very personalised and it was quick and easy to move through the various stops of the House of the Virgin Mary, Ephesus and the Temple of Artemis. Organisation of the tour online was easy with no hidden costs except a small extra charge for being picked up at the port and we got plenty of e-mail reminders. We were met at the Port Gate by a representative and directed directly to our guide.The tour was on time and met us at the dock where our ship was berthed with a sign with our names on. It was considerably less expensive and much more detailed than the excursion offered by our cruise line. Our guide, Melih was outstanding and spoke English extremely well. He gave us so much information about the places we visited, gave us plenty of time at the popular spots and showed us where to stand to get the best photos. We had been to Ephesus before many years ago but learned so much more this time with him as our guide and enjoyed it so much more too. We started the tour at the House of Mary and then moved on to Ephesus where we walked down the site and the tour ticket included the entrance to all of the site including the Terrace Houses which not all tours do. Melih guided us through these as well and they really should not be missed. Our excellent driver picked us up at the bottom of the site and we then went to the Temple of Artemis, of which only one pillar remains. Melih explained how it had looked with a picture and overlay which did help give a sense of the importance of the site. We were then asked if we would like to go to a carpet making workshop, a ceramic factory, a jewellery store or a leather factory. We went to a ceramic store and saw pots being made and painted. The pots were beautiful and we would have bought some had our luggage allowance not already been exceeded but our host was very charming and not at all pushy. Considering that this was almost a private tour for the 4 of us, all the fees were included and we had excellent transport in a van to the sites we considered this tour was excellent value for money.

Our guide met us at the port as was promised. He was extremely polite and spoke great English. His knowledge of anything and everything about Ephesus was unbelievable. This was our first Viator tour and it was by far the best.

Fantastic overview of the Kusadasi area and Ephesus. Our guide Inan was friendly, globally minded, flexible and extremely knowledgeable of local history to put Ephesus in context. Well worth the investment, highly recommended.
