Good value - Ephesus good. Organised very well and guide excellent. Supplementary visits to ceramic factory and house of Mary were unnecessary but fine. Good lunch, basic breakfast.

Ephesus definitely the highlight - Efficient pickup early in the morning by coach. The breakfast was basic although did include a fresh bagel. Early stages of the trip involved a ceramic factory visit and trip to house of Mary. While not unpleasant, they felt unnecessary. The Ephesus visit was obviously the highlight. Ozkan, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and carefully explained the site. There was plenty of opportunity for photos. Lunch was very good.

Good day out and no worries about how to get there. - We had a lovely day in Ephesus and Özgan (hope I got that right) did a good job explaining some of the history and remaining buildings and ruins on site. There'll be plenty more you could learn about the ancient city and its history but you can squeeze only so much in one day. The food at lunchtime was absolutely delicious, provided by a restaurant nearby. We were very hungry though when we reached eventually because a breakfast bagel 🥯 doesn't last that long. For anyone who is interested in seeing these fascinating ruins I would definitely recommend going. Only downside of going with a group is that you may not be able to linger and take all the snaps you want.

Ephesus - Brilliant day, start to finish. Our guide, Oscar, was fantastic, full of knowledge of Ephesus. It's a long day from Marmaris with an 0530 pick-up but its totally worth it.

Ephesus tour - Ozkar was the best guide in Ephesus! We’ve been before and he was 1,000,000 times more informed and passionate about Greek and Roman history.

Pretty nice - Absolutely amazing place! The ancient city of Ephesus is full of history and stunning architecture — especially the Library of Celsus, which is breathtaking in person. Our guide, Oskan, made the experience even better with his great knowledge and friendly attitude. He explained everything clearly and made the tour really interesting. The atmosphere was sunny, relaxed, and perfect for photos. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip — highly recommend visiting Ephesus and asking for Oskan as your guide!

Ephesus worth the trip - A very long day, excellent guide Oskan who was helpful and knowledgeable and did a great job dealing with a pretty objectionable member of the party! From a personal point of view, we found the visit to The House of the Virgin Mary underwhelming and would have MUCH preferred to have not had this in the agenda and have the time at Ephesus. There is so much to explore there
