Kuşadası Ephesus Ruins & Virgin Mary Half-Day Private Tour

Fantastic, well-rounded private tour with lunch that lasted about 6 hours. Easy to communication for pickup. Very busy that day with 3 cruise ships in town, including ours, it was paced to not feel so busy. Ancient Ephesus stunning-especially the Library. The immersive museum was nice. Our guide Nazmican was very knowledgeable. We couldn't have asked for a better tour guide. We took frequent stops in the shade. Lunch included, delicious along with an interesting carpet-making demo (with sales element) . It came with Turkish coffee; kids enjoyed apple tea. My daughters were taught to weave and practiced double knot. Consider a turkish rug! Mama Mary's House was peaceful and spiritual; remember to be quiet/respectful/ dress modestly/ respect photo restrictions (no photos in house). Last was a short photo op at Temple of Artemis, before heading back to port. Helpful tips: - Credit Cards accepted - June hot & dry, bring hat umbrella and hydrate - comfortable walking shoes

I thought it included the admission tickets already but apparently not (nothing indicated about it when I rechecked). But it included lunch and private van was premium and very comfortable. The guide Umut was also great in explaining and sharing so many historical things. Lunch was good, had it in the garden area of the restaurant under a mullberry tree and it was lovely. Umut ate with us and he showed how locals eat (mixing the dips and oils, etc). We passed by a Leather store (along the road) and carpet store (same loc as the restaurant) they had demo and tried to sell, but ok we don’t. This was a more expensive tour in Klook than another one that also do hotel pick up (not port) because of the lunch and private transfer. I would say it’s ok, our guide was excellent in explaining the history anyway.

The tour was great; I highly recommend it. I would do it again. It was a great tour. I had fun. I would do it again and recommend others to do it. It was a great tour, fantastic and fun.

原本以為是拼團，結果四人安排專車導遊，行程也讓我們可自由增減，算是不錯，導遊態度雖親切，但在古城走得稍快，有些地方匆匆略過，常需要求他停下來讓我們拍照，英語口音也有點重，後面有購物點皮衣店，地毯廠，但都不會強迫消費，整體的體驗不錯

very good experience with this tour.
