For those who love ancient history
I like ancient history so I liked seeing the cities of Ephesus, Prime, and Miletus. Our guide, Güfte, helped paint the picture of the cities in ancient times and give us a better understanding. Our driver, Ogün, was always punctual and drive very safely.

Casa de la virgen, ciudad de Efesos
El recorrido inició puntual. Tuvimos la suerte de hacerlo casi de forma privada. Hugo fue nuestro guía y realmente el mejor guía!!!\nDesde la antigua ciudad de Efesos hasta la casa de la Virgen, todo vale la pena en Kusadasi.\nSin duda la mejor forma es hacerlo con guía y la explicación, de otra forma se pierden los detalles.\nMuchas gracias por organizar el recorrido
