Having visited bot Pompeii & Ephesus on our recent trip, we have to say that while they are BOTH amazing sights, IF you only have time for 1, this would be the one we enjoyed the most. The tour guides were both knowledgeable & professional

We enjoyed the tour of Ephesus and found the guide to be very knowledgeable. We would have liked to spent more time exploring but we were given a time to leave, so we could drive to a carpet maker and spend an hour trying to be sold on carpets and jewelry. Would have liked that hour in the site and not for a sales pitch.

First, our tour guide was great! He was very knowledgeable and very passionate about teaching others about the culture and history of Turkey and Ephesus. He was super friendly and answered all of our questions. If you are going to Turkey, you have to visit Ephesus…so beautiful and ancient. First we stopped at a Turkish pottery/ceramic shop which the owner was very hospitable offering us coffee, drinks, “whatever you would like.” I did get to spin the pottery wheel which was a blast. I did feel like visiting her was a tourist trap and felt expected to buy something but nevertheless the products were beautiful and it was an experience. Next, I was excited to see the temple of Artemis but it was a little underwhelming. Overall I would recommend this private tour as it is just the guide and your group and have his full attention. Also this is a great price for transportation to see and learn about Ancient Ephesus.

The guide was very knowledgeable and interesting. He were able to go at our own pace and he provided as little or as much information as we wanted. A big highlight was we asked to go to an authentic restaurant. It was a quiet restaurant we sat outside, the food was amazing and not very expensive.
