Hi all ,as my parents will be making thier first to Icmeler with us in sept and i would like to treat them to a little day trip for thier anniversary they are both early 60;s and young at heart but i think an all day boat trip might not be thier thing so i am thinking of booking the Ephusus day trip for them ,i have never been on this trip and im kind of hopeing that a few members have and could give me some info on this i have looked at ICR excursion page and it gives a very brief discription just really want to know how long is the boat trip and how many stops it makes ect ,we would like to suprise them with a trip and then in the evening take them both out for a celebration meal,so any info on when the boat will return them to Icmeler will be really helpfull .

Thanks in advance :D

we went last september whilst staying in Bodrum, its along walk round the site and still very hot in september, so good shoes plenty of water, and a good camera, its worth the trip. Rog.

You don't go to Ephesus by boat.

I would suggest that if you do want to send them there, then you book the two day trip as it is a very long journet for just the day

Thanks for all the replies ,but i think this day out might be a bit too long for them esp when the pick up is 6.15 am ,meaning the would have to get up 5am in order to get ready ,maybe look for a shorter trip with better times ideally something with a pick up around 9 returning at 4-5 would be perfect for them Ahh well back to the drawing board to re think ,thank you all anyway

Cheers Vikki x
