J. Paul Getty Museum
Los Angeles, California
My Rating
My Review
The Paul Getty Museum is superb - inside and out. A hightlight for us was the special Van Gogh exhibition which we very much enjoyed. The tour is something a bit different to do for people who would like to see more than Disneyland and Universal Studios when visiting LA.

Ephesus was extremely interesting and we were pleased to see that excavation and recovery of the ancient buildings is an on-going process. This is a 'must do' for people visiting Turkey.

Izmir, Turkey
My Rating
My Review
Well worth the 2 hours drive each way. Pamukkale is a truly amazing natural wonder - even better than we had expected. Hierapolis - an ancient precinct which was fascinating but unfortunately not much of it remaining to this day.
