Excursión de 5 horas para grupos pequeños a Éfeso desde Kusadasi

Lo mejor de este tour fue la guia, quien es conocedora a profundidad de todo lo relaionado a Efeso.. Realmente lo disfrutamos, visitamos lugares historicos grandiosos con tiempo suficiente para hacer todos los recorridos y hasta comprar algunos souvenirs...

Nuestro transporte y guía turístico fueron muy profesionales. Nos estaban esperando en el puerto según lo planeado y el recorrido por Éfeso fue excelente, ya que el guía nos dio mucha información local e histórica interesante. Incluyó un recorrido por las Casas de la Terraza y nos alegramos mucho de poder ver estos sorprendentes hallazgos arqueológicos. Estos son una "visita obligada" si vas a Éfeso. Al final del recorrido, el guía ofreció a nuestro grupo la opción de ver una demostración de cerámica y alfombras locales. En ambas paradas hubo estímulo para comprar los productos locales. En particular, los vendedores de alfombras tenían bastante presión. En retrospectiva, creemos que la gira hubiera sido mejor sin estas paradas finales. Es por eso que califiqué nuestra experiencia con un "4" en lugar de un "5".

El viaje fue excelente. Ty nos recibió en el puerto y viajamos en una furgoneta Sprinter de primer nivel con conductor a Éfeso, donde Ty nos guió por la ciudad vieja. Es mucho más de lo que indican las fotos en línea. Visitamos la casa de Mary y una cooperativa de alfombras turcas y aprendimos mucho sobre cómo se hacen sin presión para comprar. Valió la pena el dinero gastado.

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 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.

Informative and caring guide. Told us so many stories about the place that we would never had found out without him, as very few signs on site.

The shore excursion was great value for money. Our tour guide studied in Melbourne and his command of English was excellent. His commentary made the Ephesus ruins come to life and we also really enjoyed his commentary on Turkey and the various ethnic groups that call Turkey home. We even enjoyed visiting two shops selling high end leather jackets and hand made carpets.
