Absolutely brilliant tour to Ephesus - This private tour to Ephesus must be one of the best we've had thanks to Senem and the driver. We were collected right outside of Kudadasi cruise terminal then transported in a very conformable Mercedes people carrier to Mary mother of Jesus' house in the mountains near Ephesus. We were given the history of the house by Senem before arrival and some paper to write prayers upon. This is a very special place of tranquility despite the crowds, but early in the day is best to avoid the queues. Then to Ephesus where we were dropped off outside, got tickets in a short queue then Senem gave us a one on one guide to the history, archeology and architecture of the buildings in Ephesus. We exited at the lower gate and were collected directly outside and then did a visit to John the apostles basilica nearby. We enjoyed a typical Turkish meze lunch which was excellent, the food was delicious. We then returned to the port. Senem was an exceptional guide, she was both professional and friendly and made our visit to Ephesus so much more enjoyable. She never rushed us and shared great insight on the history of Ephesus. She remained patient and responsive to all the questions we had on the history of the sights. Absolutely brilliant tour, thank you for the memories we made.

Lively Epheseus tour with our guide Mr.Adam ! - Favourite part of the tour is Ephesus with our remarkable professional guide Mr.Adam ! He was fantastic , welcoming and a very nice gentlemen who guided us without any rush throughout the tour. We had a 10 days trip around Turkey and never could meet a single guide like him with good experience of engaging the group. I could say the tour is lively only bcas of Adam. Lucky we got him as our day guide.
