Ephesus Ancient City
When we reach in Ephesus we start to explore this well-preserved ancient city. It was a city in ancient Greece on the coast of Ionia, 3 kilometers (1.9 mi) southwest of present-day Selçuk in İzmir Province, Turkey. It was built in the 10th century BC on the site of the former Arzawan capital by Attic and Ionian Greek colonists. During the Classical Greek era, it was one of twelve cities that were members of the Ionian League. The city came under the control of the Roman Republic in 129 BC.

The Temple of Artemis
The Temple of Artemis or Artemision, also known as the Temple of Diana, was a Greek temple dedicated to an ancient, local form of the goddess Artemis (associated with Diana, a Roman goddess). It was located in Ephesus. It was completely rebuilt twice, once after a devastating flood and three hundred years later after an act of arson, and in its final form was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. By 401 AD it had been ruined or destroyed. Only foundations and fragments of the last temple remain at the site.

Traveller reviews
Denis was a great guide! We got lots of details about the area and the ancient areas we visited. He helped us stay on time and we even got in extra things there were not planned. Highly recommend this tour and Denis. Also, we had 2 children that are 7 years old, he was excellent with them!
The tour was amazing. Our tour guide (Ercument) was also exceptional. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind, patient and funny.
Ephesus was amazing. There wasn't much to the Mary house but I'm not religious. The tour guide Selcuk was very knowledgeable and informative. He was also extremely kind and courteous. I would 100% recommend him. The van was clean, modern and comfortable (it even had fast charging USB ports). The lunch was traditional but very good. Only two things I wasn't thrilled about. The first was a visit to a rug store. I felt pressured to buy a rug but I wasn't forced. The second thing was the price of the Ephesus tickets. I admit I should have checked this myself, but it would have been nice if this was mentioned when I booked the tour -- it certainly wasn't the tour guide's fault who explained that it was a government decision. Anyway I had a great time and I wholeheartedly recommend this guide, this company, and this excursion.
Our tour of Ephesus was amazing and met all our expectations! Although our time was limited by our cruise ship’s timetable, the pick up at the port was seamless and we were never concerned about making it back to the ship on time. There is so much to see in Ephesus and this personalized tour maximized every moment. Our guide was fantastic - so knowledgeable and personable. I would highly recommend this tour!
We have a fantastic day Taner was so knowledgeable and a lovely person he also advised of best photos and took some of us together something we don’t really get when on holidays as 2, so happy we booked this way rather than through the cruise line I feel we got so much more out of our time, would 100% recommend booking this trip and with Taner.
We were greeted as soon as we left the port. Excellent guide who was very informative, friendly and knowledgeable. Lunch was great. Arrived back in plenty of time. Highly recommend this tour and guide - Dennis.
They must wear tennis because the floor is slippery. The archaeological site is extremely interesting and I recommend getting to the site early.
