Could be better!!!

We were picked up later than expected, which wasn’t a great start 😕 The guide didn’t explain things very clearly, and it was hard to follow sometimes. Ephesus itself was impressive, but the tour felt a bit rushed and unorganized.

Not as expected!

The guide’s English was hard to understand and the explanations were minimal. I expected more from an English tour. A bit disappointing.

Good but missing Russian

The tour was well organized and everything went smoothly – pickup, transport, and the visit itself were great 👍 The only issue is that there’s no Russian-speaking guide from Kusadasi. English was okay, but not ideal for everyone in our group.

Rewelacja

Wycieczka była perfekcyjna od początku do końca. Transport punktualny, komfortowy autobus, a polski przewodnik – klasa sama w sobie! 😊 Opowiadał tak, że nie dało się nudzić. Efez zachwycający. Jedna z najlepszych wycieczek, na jakich byłem.
