Our tour guide, Haken, was amazing and the best!!!

Published on Oct, 2024

Absolutely everything! Demos and visits the rug and ceramic places and of course Ephesus! Haken went beyond our expectations!

Awesome day in Ephesus with Andrew our private guide!

Published on Oct, 2024

Had the best day/tour with Andrew! Picked us up at the Izmir port and toured us through Ephesus and surrounding sites, and ended with a fantastic local lunch and demonstration of handmade rugs. Andrew was extremely knowledgeable about everything and had great explanations and answers to our many questions. My Mom requires a cane and/or wheelchair, and he was very patient and accommodating. Highly recommended instead of the cruise excursion.

Our Ephesus Private Tour Far Exceeded Our Expectations

Published on Oct, 2024

Our Ephesus Private Tour far exceeded our expectations. Our tour guide Ceyda was beyond amazing. She explained so much to us throughout the entire tour and often asked if we had any questions. She also suggested an amazing local place to eat and shop. Ceyda, thank you for being so wonderful. Because of you, our tour was beyond enjoyable. We sincerely appreciate you.

Definitely book this to enjoy Turkey

Published on Jun, 2024

Our driver Mett was the BEST. He waited for us to get off the ship and was so super nice. He asked us what we wanted to see and took us immediately so we would beat the crowds and skip the lines. He was super knowledgeable and gave us so much great history. He was so good he even had our teens attention. After seeing the sights he suggested a place to eat with delicious traditional food and we got to see how they make rugs. Such a wonderful day. Definitely book with Mett

Great day!

Published on Jun, 2024
