A must do with great guide and back to the ship on time.

Published on Feb, 2024

Where do I begin, this was the best guide and tour. He was so knowledgeable and thought provoking and answered things before we could ask. From the ruins to Mary’s house to the Firca pottery where we had Turkish coffee and tea and watched a pottery demonstration of how they still make there pottery. My husband bought me the pottery in the picture and not only came in the allotted 60 days but they made it glow in the dark for me. We were of course worried since we had to wait and it was being sent from Turkey but it definitely was worth it my adult sons loved it and thought haw unique and great it was. I will always remember our guide and the time we had in Ephesus. This is definitely a must do in Turkey. Thank you for the memorable time

Published on Mar, 2023

We would like to thank Denise Taskin our private tour guide who definitely provided a wonderful, unforgetable day in Ephesus , temple of Artemis and House of the Virgin Mary. Our driver Yildirim made us feel so safe with his professional driving along the winding road to the House of Virgin Mary. They both made us feel special riding in the mercedes benz van.

knowledgeable, profession, well organizing.
