Muy buen tour. Conocimos la Casa se Maria, Efesos, el templo de Artemisa, y Sirince. Pero como habia poca gente y lo hicimos rápido el guia nos incluyó una visita a una escuela donde hacen alfombras y a un lugar donde venden productos de aceite de oliva. El guia Nizam, es fantástico! Conocedor de la historia y los lugares, ameno, tremendamente divertido! Muy buen tour, recomendado ???? %

The tour of Ephesus was great despite there being a million other visitors from the cruise ships that day. The guide Nizam Aziz was the best part of the tour. He spoke perfect English, was very informative and entertained us with his very funny jokes all along tje way. He was the reason why the group socialised well during the tour.
The negatives was that the visit to Sirince was hardly a visit with no time to view it because the commercial stops took too long.

Our tour guide was really exceptional—personable, knowledgeable, charming. It respected the notion of a small tour (six ppl that day) as opposed to the many tour groups from cruise ships that also visit. My reason for giving four stars is that we spent a lot of time visiting shops—three hours in three shops total which was exhausting. That seems to be the way of things in Turkiye but nonetheless a thorn in my side.
