イスタンブールから毎日エフェソス＆聖母マリアの家-小グループ

Fascinating historical and biblical experience Even with the rain it was very interesting our guide was very knowledgeable and kind

Flight was delayed 2-1/2 hours, so our tour was cut from 6 hours including lunch to about 2-1/2 hours without lunch, so we had to skip some parts, including Mary’s house. Our guide was so-so, not outstanding. Still, we were glad to see Ephesus. Transfers were on time and efficient.

The tour was fantastic, We had four friends on the tour. The Ephesus tour with Elif, the tour operator, was great. She also took us to a rug place and a tile place (make sure you want to go there.) We enjoyed her and she made the tour interesting and informative. The transportation back and forth to the airport on the tour was nice and spacious. It is a full long day but it was worth it. We did have some issues. The tour started earlier than expected, which was not a problem. We left the hotel at 3:45 AM instead of the 5:30, as stated on the website. The issue was that while checking in for the flight from Istanbul to Izmir, Turkish Airlines put two of us on standby. The plane was overbooked on Turkish Air by 20 people. The tour company said we could get boarding passes at the airport. This problem may have been avoided if we checked in for the flight 24 hours ahead of time. We did not know that two of us would have seats on the plane until they were escorted up the stairs minutes before we took off. This was very stressful. Despite contacting Viator, they were very unhelpful about receiving any rewards credit for the tour.

The tour was amazing! The company organized everything and everyone was on time. We had no difficulty finding our guide tour once we arrived to Izmir and the transfers to and from the airport were all on time. Our guide was amazing, his name was Mr. Zafer Bozoglu and he shared with us a lot of information about Ephesus and what is known about the House of Virgin Mary. We loved seeing all the cats at Ephesus. Our lunch was awesome, was a local place with home made food. We loved this experience and we recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning more about ancient places.

We are very lucky to have Ellif as our guide. We had so many questions regarding the history of The House of Virgin Mary and ancient city of Ephesus. An addition to planned sightseeing she showed us Turkish handcrafting cultures which was real art. Very thankful that we booked this trip via Viator

I have been here several times. I bought friends this time and found out religion is a expensive business. Entrance fee is shameful compared to other historical sites and the costs to get there.

Been on many tours, it's always the chemistry with the tour guide that makes or breaks the day. We were fortunate enough to have Elif handle our family. Courteous, knowledgeable, fun and knew when to leave us be and then pick up the pace again. showed and taught us many items and pointed out things we never would have seen. Top notch tour guide

Elif was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She became more of a friend than a tour guide. A wonderful, and extremely knowledgeable tour guide who was there to assist in any way possible. This is a must do tour!

We did 3 tours with Neon while we were in Istanbul. However, I am only reviewing this particular one as it was just wonderful. Our tour guide just had my husband and I and everything was catered to us and needs. I wish I could remember the guide's name as I give him top marks for knowledge, experience, communication, and enthusiasm. I made sure I made a wish in Mary's house... The location where we lunched was a private place where people learn to make rugs. We ate outside and enjoyed the scrumptious chicken. They grow their own olives, make marinated olives, oil and wine. We are still talking about this lunch and the atmosphere. We spent the night at the Ramada which was a decadent experience, then travelled by to Instanbul the next day. Top marks for this tour!!

This your was everything I had hoped for. As a Christian I have wanted to see Ephesus and understand the more. I got the perfect guide, Harman. Everything worked like clockwork from the time the picked me up at the hotel at 4am (I was a tad late as I had read the reviews:-() They keep time! The only nightmare for me was the air ticket. I called several days and even on the penultimate day, I had not received my ticket. However they made me forgive everything with the professionalism and time keeping. That you very much Neon tours! Than you, Harman, you're the best guide!!!
