Hi, we will be arriving at Kusadasi on November 17th, 2024 on a Viking cruise. We would like to have a private tour of Ephesus and attend the mass at 10:30 am. We prefer to have a private bible tour if possible. Could you please let me know if that is available and the cost? I’d be glad to discuss with you next week if possible.

Thank you
Tom
