“Ancient city of Ephesus”
If you don't book with Denizhan you're missing out on a great guide. He was through, informative, knowledgeable and courteous. His paced matched my own and I used a cane. We saw all the highlights that the ancient city has to offer. Gate of Hadrian, Library of Celsius, the many frescoes and reliefs depicting the gods fighting with demi gods and amazons. A brothel across from the library for some in depth reading from the scholars and of course the communal latrines where the males got their business done! Denizhan is an excellent guide, if he is booked ask if his wife is available. Don't miss out. Still haven't figured out how to download my amazon photos to this review. Sorry.
