A must see in Kusadasi

Ephesus is magnificent place during the AC era. It is a must to see while in kusadasi. The house of Mary was a serene place.

Physically challenging at times, but worth it. Our guide was knowledgeable, d informative. While also making sure we were safe. He would stop while giving us information, so when we were walking we could concentrate.

Recommend with a reservation...please read on as to why!

The sites are beautiful and so much history to take in. Learning about 'Nike' and the logo, where it came from; fully understanding how people lived back then; the differences in culture etc. Unfortunately though we felt rushed throughout the day - even walking through the ruins of Ephesus. We wanted to hear more about the fusion of Christianity and it's nearby early churches but were told that these locations were too far to go to (which was only about another 40 min. away). We were asked if we wanted to visit the local ceramic shops etc. including lunch and when we advised that we would rather do a full tour of the area, we were quickly dorpped off in Kusadasi to continue on our way. We thought we were purchasing a 4-6 hour tour but it turned out to be a 3 hour tour from 10am to 1pm.

It’s been on my bucket list to visit the ancient city of Ephesus in Turkey and so I did with a friend. Although it was the hottest day as I remember, our tour guide Ali and his driver did an amazing job not paying attention that all of us are sweating, He just keep on explaining every details of the Ephesus tour started from the Virgin Mary house to Artemis of Ephesus, and I love the restaurant that Ali suggested to eat with. It was an amazing tour and I highly recommended this tour company for your itinerary in Kusadasi, Turkey. Thank you very much👍👍👍
