We only stopped at Virgin Mary's House, the Ancient City of Ephesus, and a 2 minute stop at Artemis Temple. We didn't go to the Ephesus Terrace House. Instead, the guide took us to a carpet factory and a leather factory for shopping, which we disliked and wasted precious onshore time.

My family (4 of us) took this tour from the cruise terminal in Kusadasi. Our guide (Gulchan) was very punctual in picking us up. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly through the trip. We covered House of Virgin Mary (imo might be worth skipping given its cost/not much to see and contested legitimacy), the ruins of Ephesus and the Temple of Artemis efficiently.
