Great experience on the Ephesus tour

5.00Very enlightening experience with our tour guide Medi and our very careful driver, Mehmet. The ruins of Ephesus were so amazing to see and strolling down the streets was a lifetime experience. Te temple of Atticus even though only one pillar is still standing was still worth the trip. We did go see a weaving farm and got to see the beautiful carpets. The one she chose do not have any high pressure sales so we were thankful for that. Medi was very knowledgeable and gave us a great overview of the Greek, Roman and Turkish history. I might add that the weather in January was perfect and no crowds so we almost had the site to ourselves. Would highly recommend this tour and if you have time take the All Day tour.
