Loved the ruins. Erman was very knowledgeable and able to provide clear explanations. I could have done without the stop at the pottery place. Other than that it was an interesting ans enjoyable experience.

Estuvimos en el tour de Efeso y la casa de la Virgen Maria con Erman de guía. A pesar que no fue un grupo de habla hispana, tanto a mi amiga como a mi, nos hizo sentir que éramos parte del grupo a pesar de nuestro idioma. Erman se tomó la paciencia de explicar tanto en Inglés como es Castellano todo el tour. Siempre bien predispuesto y con ganas de que aprendamos la historia que nos iba contando. Gracias por la buena onda y a Erman un especial saludo desde Argentina.
