booked thru Oceania cruises - Not sure if this is the same tour - tour bus to marketplace in Sirence; wine tasting at Artemis (bought a bottle of the pomegranate wine - excellent!); went to a museum in town, then bused to a former water mill that's now a restaurant (Gunlok Kahvalt Verilis); for lunch - excellent food, great service, TONS of beautiful plants & flowers. Hope I'm spelling everything correctly but I'm sure it's close!

Great tour guide... - Most people will see the City of Ephusus only once in a lifetime and if you really took the effort to come this far then spend a little bit of money for a professional tour guide. We had a life changing day with our guide named Hakan, he explained everything in detail and entertained us all day long. Please don’t do this tour alone you will spoil a great day.
