2.Daily Ephesus & Virgin Mary House Tour from Izmir

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 174 reviews · 5 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $163

Morning pickup from Izmir for Ephesus and the Virgin Mary House, skip-the-line entry, plus Selcuk lunch on a small-group day trip.

“I arranged a one-day roundtrip flight from Istanbul to participate in this tour. The convenience of being picked up and dropped off at the airport was greatly appreciated. Both the guide and drivers were excellent, and the tour itself was quite engaging. Although I couldn't partake in any meals due to serious allergies, the lunch venue was exceptionally clean. However, I left the leather shop and fashion show feeling quite frustrated as it was not part of the tour, just a ploy to promote business. Overall, I highly recommend this experience.”

Ci ha accompagnati in tutti i luoghi previsti, sempre fornendo informazioni interessanti ed in maniera stimolante. Ci hanno riportato all'imbarco all'orario concordato. Lo consiglio vivamente.”
