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.
