Had few days more in Izmir and going to other places was a great option. This tour is value for money. We saw many things, learnt lots of new infos, and had a great time. My friend and I enjoyed out time in Pamukkale, and we even swam in the antique pool. The temperature of the water was so good! In Ephesus we were simply stunned! No words can actually describe the beauty of this ancient city. No wonder why it was that much important back then! Our guide was friendly and very helpful. I recommend the tour. Very interesting visits and lots of great views!

Family friendly, don’t hesitate if you are having kids! My 6 and 9 y.o kids had a blast, and we also enjoyed our day. I need to be honest, going around as a family is not an easy thing. I booked this one as I always wanted to visit Ephesus, and the company had great reviews. Schedule was made to perfection, I experience zero inconvenience with the kids, as everything was properly done. Ephesus and Pamukkale are amazing places with lots of nice spots to visit. The ancient city in Pamukkale was a nice place to visit. And, of course, Ephesus was phenomenal!!
