5.00My wife and I had the pleasure of Bryan leading our tour of Ephesus, the Virgin Mary’s House and Şirince. We also tasted fruit wines, visited a Turkish Rug making facility and a very interesting jewelry store where the owner made the jewelry Brad Pitt and others wore for the movie Troy. He was without a doubt the best tour guide we have ever had. He is very knowledgeable, intelligent, and passionate about the history of these sites and liberally shared his knowledge with us. His recommendations as to what were the most important sites to see were excellent. To note, these sites are something special and we are thankful to have had the opportunity to visit them with Bryan. It was one of the best days I have had in years! The price is very reasonable considering the value we received as we could not have gotten as much out of the day had we done this on our own. If you can get Bryan as your guide to any of the sites in Turkey, consider yourself fortunate as you will certainly be impressed and enjoy the day. We made a new friend with Bryan yesterday and we will be back to spend more time with him and see some of the other sites we missed.
Wonderful excursion / day
