We ended up getting a private tour with Deniz. He was very kind and knowledgeable, and answered all our questions. We got a lot more out of the tour than we expected. Aside from the tour of Ephesus and the House of Virgin Mary, we also experienced some cultural activities such as ceramic/pottery making and carpet weaving (where we were also provided a delicious Turkish lunch)! Our guide also knew I was pregnant before this tour began and was courteous enough to prepare an itinerary that made me feel comfortable throughout the day (making sure I wasn't in the hot afternoon sun at certain points and allowing us time indoors as well). Thank you so much!
