Great way to see Ephesus and other historical sights in comfort - We highly recommend taking this tour if you want to see historical sights from Kusadasi. We were picked up from our hotel in a modern air/conditioned minivan with a driver and guide and were happy to find we were the only ones so it was like a private tour! We visited the Virgin Mary House, the incredible city of Ephesus, Library of Celcus and the Temple of Artemis. We also stopped at a traditional pottery making place that was very interesting. We had time for a delicious lunch so in total it was about 6 hours, plenty of time. Our guide Huseyin was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of information about the places we visited and took great photos of us in each location. It was a lovely hassle free way to see the ancient sights in comfort and style.

Amazing tour! - We loved our trip to Ephesus from Kusadasi. We were able to visit the ancient city of Ephesus, the house of the Virgin Mary, had a traditional Turkish lunch buffet, went to a leather shop and had a private fashion show that we got to be a part of, went to a ceramic/pottery making shop and again got to participate in making a piece of pottery and also went to a candy shop. It was a full day with lots of walking but worth it. The terrain is very uneven in ancient Ephesus and I highly recommend wearing comfortable clothing/shoes. Derya was an excellent tour guide and was knowledgeable about the locations we visited and the culture as well. Our favorite parts of the trip were visiting the House of the Virgin Mary and ancient Ephasus. We highly recommend this trip.
