Ephesus tour with cats

A splendid trip to an amaizing ancien city. The tour company was very good and Eric was extremely efficient. The guide and driver were professionals and very helpful. As a hint for cats lovers, take with you some cat food, the archaeological site is full of nice and playful cats.

10/10

Our excursion with Tui was cancelled lastminute. I had to look for another company who offered the same trip. This is the main reason I came to Turkije. I booked this trip only 1 day in advance. It was perfect. Good organization. Great driver, thé most perfect guide. Thank you Eric who made it possible.

The only way to see Ephesus and Mereyama

A wonder-filled trip. From pick-up at our hotel in a cool air conditioned coach we knew this was going to be good. Our guide and driver were great. We (a couple) were lucky to be in a small group of 7. It started with a trip to the Temple of Artemis where our guide was able to point out a pagan temple, a Christian church (basilica St John) and a mosque - all in the same vicinity. Then on to Ephesus. WOW! Like Pompeii, this is a place you could spend a full day to see everything. Our guide took us through pointing out specific important parts bringing history to life. Lunch was really nice with only drinks to be paid for. Finally we went to Mereyama (House of the Virgin Mary). As a Catholic it was a special part of the trip for me. There is also mass at the site early on a Sunday morning). Pilgrims are able to light votive candles for special intentions. There was a visit to a pottery and a leather factory. No hard sell and it was interesting. All in all a brilliant trip. ❤️
