5.00It was perfect. We (4 adults) were picked up on time at the terminal and immediately made our way to Ephesus, away from the tourist crowds. Our tour guide Volkan presented the history to us in good German and brought the ancient stones to life. We also had a great time in the wine village of Sirince and enjoyed good food. We would book the excursion just like this again. We were four in a stylish van in top condition and had a fantastic day. šš

5.00Our guide was really excellent: he made us immerse ourselves in the past by accompanying us through the ancient streets of Ephesus, once a splendid Greek then Roman city. The tour ended in the picturesque village of Sirince, perched among olive trees. We particularly appreciated the fact that he spoke Italian, which is not obvious in Turkey, and that he involved us with many interesting anecdotes. If you visit Turkey, we definitely recommend you choose this Tour.
