Historical sites

We really enjoyed the visit to Virgin Mary’s house and also Ephesus ruins. Historical sites, worth to visit them with a guide tour, because they explain the history and you really can imagine how the life was during those times. It’s interesting to note that a lot is still being discovered and restored. We also loved to have Erdem Eryılmaz as our guide. He knows a lot of history and he is nice and kind as well.
