FOR CRUISE GUESTS / We highly recommend you to meet at port after 30 / 45 minutes your ship docked to port in order beat crowds / school buses and hot weather in the afternoon. It is better to meet early to have a better tour in Ephesus before the crowds. THIS TOUR IS FOR CRUISE GUESTS ONLY. IF YOU ARE NOT FROM A CRUISE SHIP, PLEASE DO NOT BOOK THIS TOUR AND CHECK OUR OTHER TOUR OPTIONS Some Advantages of Our Private Tours Instead of Group Bus Tours - It might be your first and only one time in Ephesus. Do not lose this opportunity that may come once in your life time. - You do not have to stop your tour if one fellow gets ill or fell down in big groups in the ruins. Because, the guide of the big groups has to care with this person. Your tour will come unbearable although it might be your only day in Turkey. - With a large group, you are dependent to their schedule. But in a private tour, you do not have to follow any of the program, you decide what you would like to see, when you want to start and conclude your tour. Because this is your own private tour, you are the boss and you decide to everything. - In large groups, sometimes tour guides skip the most interesting details in a sight because it might be impossible to show it to everyone in a large group. - In a private tour, you do not have to wait all the group with about 30-40 people who have different interests, try to take a picture of everything and usually stay behind the group. - If you can not hear the guide in a large group or you fall behind because the pace is too fast, you are just out of luck. - In a private tour, while visiting the ruins you do not wait for a long time in lines to get ticket or get into the ruins or museums. Because your private tour guide will make everything ready for you. - You can spend your time in Ephesus and other sites as much as you wished, we do not give rushed tours.
