Picked up outside our hotel in Kusadasi at the agreed time. Good driver and informative guide. Ephesus was amazing - though way busier than anticipated. The brief visit to "Mother Mary's House" could have been omitted and, for us, spending this extra time at Ephesus would have improved the trip. That said, it might be interesting if you're into Christianity / religion. The Temple of Artemis was brief but good. However, the site has collapsed / been rebuilt, had stone robbed and is now nothing like what was once regarded as one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world. The tour bus (a converted Mercedes van) was much more comfortable than the equivalent Ford version used in the much longer trip we did to Pamukkale).
