Perfect tour! Book it now!!!!

Published on Jul, 2024

Our delightful guide, Ecem Yukel and driver picked us up, waiting with a sign, brought to the sites we wanted to see, and a delightful store for snacks, Turkish coffee and some shopping-no pressure but you will want everything. Great information brings the sites to light, perfect day, good timing, lots of traffic returning to Izmir but we made it. Book this now! 5 stars ⭐️

Highly recommend

Published on Jul, 2023

Our guide was exactly where she said she would be to meet us. Very knowledgeable. Able to answer all of our questions and add interesting dates and facts. We toured the Mary Mother house and Ephesus. She went out of her way to be sure I was ok ( injured my knee) and it was extremely hot. Would highly recommend this tour. Unfortunately I didn’t get her name.

Excellent Tour Guide

Published on Jan, 2023

We visited numerous historic sites in one action-packed tour. Banu, our guide, was very informative, friendly, and considerate in making sure all of our expectations were fulfilled and questions answered. I would highly recommend going with this tour, especially with Banu.

Amazing private tour

Published on Jan, 2023

My wife and I had an amazing time with Burak as he explained the history as well as some of the fun facts in Ephesus. He was a wealth of knowledge and kept the whole day interesting. Everything from pickup, to entry of sights, to lunch, and drop off was easy and smooth. We would definitely recommend him to anyone who wanted to go.

Excellent Ephesus!

Published on Oct, 2022

This was an excellent tour of Ephesus. Our guide Kaya is a great story teller. The tour was packed with interesting stories and lots of history. We had a great time. Kaya also is an excellent photographer. Thank you.
