Customized tour to make the most of your time. Our tour guide Layla asked us what was important to us and made sure that we got to see and do everything we wanted in the short period of time we had on shore. Good excursion, I recommend it.
Thank you so much for your kind feedback. We truly appreciate it and hope to see you again.
While our cruise ship was docked in Kusadasi, Turkey, we had a private tour of Ephesus, the home of the Virgin Mary and several other sites in the area. Our guide was Aysa, who was very knowledgeable about the area and was very friendly. It was so helpful to have Aysa walking right next to us thru the crowded Ephesus area and explaining the various sites. This was much easier than being in a large group and trying to keep track of the guide. We also visited the ruins of the Temple of Artemis and the church of St John, and visited a mosque. We had a typical Turkish lunch at an outdoor restaurant and visited the Ephesus Museum in Selcuk before going back to the ship. It was a great full-day excursion with a great guide. We highly recommend this especially with Aysa.
Our tour guide Banu did a wonderful job. We were greeted on time at the cruise port and escorted to a very comfortable, clean vehicle. At her suggestion, we went to Ephesus first to avoid some of the large tour buses. We visited the House of Mary and Temple of Artemis. We finished early and Banu offered several suggestions for other activities. We opted to visit a leather outlet and watched a fashion show....enlightening and no pressure to purchase. Banu was genuinely concerned that we ended our time with her early but all of us just wanted to relax so we headed back to the ship. Would definitely suggest this tour instead of the big bus tours offered by the cruise line.
Our tour guide, Nur was terrific. She was engaging and very informative. We learned a great deal about the historical significance of this special place. Her detailed information enlightened us and sparked our curiosity. We would definitely recommend this tour. The Kotcheks
Our tour guide, Zeynab, was extremely informative and pleasant to be with. She was very professional in every respect. She was punctual and took excellent care of us. I certainly recommend her services.
Zeynap was our tour guide, and she was the greatest addition to our trip. She was very knowledgeable about the great places we went to, and kindly answered any questions we had. I couldn’t imagine this trip being any educational and fun without her. I won’t forget how she stayed with us longer some days, taking time out of her family. This Ephesus Tour was one of my greatest experiences in life, and I would gladly go again. They took us to great villages and took us to delicious restaurants. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who’s looking for a great trip.
Mehmoot and the drive did an excellent job providing a private tour for us. The huge benefit was that you can adjust how much you want to spend at each site. He was very informative and I would highly recommend the private tour for everyone heading to Ephesus.
My Ephesus trip was simply conducted excellently by you & your team. Starting right from booking online to completing the trip, the trust on each other was heartening. Burak was too good including helping one friend who has to take a wheelchair by pushing & pulling it around though not his responsibility but did it only on humanitarian grounds. The meal suggestions & the menu as we are vegetarians was superb as we tried first time the local Turkish Food. Overall a great experience & a special thank you to Burak our tour guide, Muzzafar our Driver & Hakan our booking person. Keep up the good work. Thank you.
By far this was my favorite port of all the places we visited in the Mediterranean. Would highly recommend Erkan.
Zeynep was one of the very best tour guides we have every had. Our day was full of excellent sights and very interesting information. Many thanks❣️ Sandy & Dorsey
