Ephesus and House of Mary - Our tour with Seyhan was excellent! His knowledge of Ephesus and the House of Mary were exceptional. He was both knowledgeable and engaging. We had 3 teenagers with us and he kept them all interested and entertained. The traditional lunch was the perfect end to our day. I highly recommend this tour and definitely any tour with Seyhan - you will not be disappointed!
