クシャダスからのエフェソスプライベートショアエクスカーション

The experience was amazing, the Ephesus ruins are marvellous and Pedro did a great job on explaining it to us.

Ozgur was an amazing tour guide. He is a historian and a great story teller. He not only took us through thr sites, but created am amazing experience for us recounting the Greek and Roman heritage of the old town. The Car provided to us was fantastic and the driver made sure we had a cool car whenever we returned from sweltering heat. The guide/driver team, Limo and the whole communication from agency was outstanding. It breaks my heart not able to give 5 stars. But I am forced to give 4 stars as Agency was not straightforward with the itinerary where the "free lunch" was to sit on a carpet selling sales pitch, which was not told to me upfront by the Agency. I do have to say, the people doing the carpet salespitch was nice and informative, But I can't get around the fact that if I am paying for a tour , I expect the tour to be fully focused on my needs especially when I had limited hours on the trip. I should not be put in any forced situation for free lunch. I would have gladly paid for my families lunch if it can be done based on my preferences. All said and done, we had a really great time and good memories of the trip. I just hope the Agency takes this feedback seriously and offer the "free lunch/carpet sales pitch" as a option the guest can opt in or out ahead of tour date than be forced into it.

Turkey is a beautiful country, and our visit to Ephesus was the highlight of our trip. Kopay was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and professional, making the entire day seamless and stress-free. The experience exceeded all of our expectations, and we will certainly recommend this tour to our fellow cruisers. Thank you for helping make our day so special. Tom&Ann

Excellent tour, well coordinated, customized to what we wanted to see and do. Transportation was very comfortable. Much better than a large group tour. Loved our authentic lunch snd getting to know owners our guide, Hatice snd learn about the Turkish life and culture. Very special day and wonderful memories.

We had a wonderful tour around the Kusadasi area with our guide, Gul. She was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about sharing the rich history of her hometown. Visiting the House of the Virgin Mary was a deeply moving experience, and walking through ancient Ephesus with Gul’s insightful commentary made the ruins come alive. She took us to a fantastic local spot for lunch—authentic, delicious, and far from the usual tourist traps. Her personal stories and deep understanding of both ancient and modern Turkey added so much depth to the tour. I would highly recommend Gul to anyone looking for a meaningful and memorable experience in the area.

We had a wonderful time with Hatice at Ephesus. Not only is she very knowledgeable about the historic sites of turkey, she is very easy to talk to and so fun to be around. My husband and I had taken a cruise 10 years ago that stopped at Kusadasi/ Ephesus 10 years ago, we had a nice enough time walking through Ephesus but it wasn't necessarily the highlight of that trip. Fast forward to summer 2024, we were on a cruise with two other couples (family/friends) and our friends from Italy found Hatice through connections with other tour guide friends in Italy. WE HAD THE BEST DAY! Hatice made the history of Ephesus come alive, and she also knew exactly when to visit certain areas, to pace our morning /afternoon as well as avoid crowds at peak periods. We also stopped for lunch at a fabulous rug cooperative, and while we were skeptical of the demonstrations and the rug sales, it was honestly one of the most fun afternoons of our entire trip. It was also wonderful to have Hatice there to give us good (Turkish) advice when making a major rug purchase. (which we were basically expecting to do anyway) And then we had a fabulous lunch in the courtyard with great food and conversation. She said she wants to take us on a 10-day tour through Turkey, and we are ready! We still WhatsApp with her and consider her a friend after. such a great day in Ephesus. Highly, highly recommended!

¡Nuestro tour privado de un día por las ruinas de Éfeso y la Casa de la Virgen María con Bonita Tours fue absolutamente fantástico! Desde el principio hasta el final, todo estuvo perfectamente adaptado a nuestras necesidades, especialmente considerando que viajaba con mi abuela de 87 años. Nuestra guía fue **excepcional**: no solo hablaba español con fluidez, sino que también hizo todo lo posible por personalizar el tour para asegurarse de que mi abuela pudiera disfrutar cómodamente de todo. Nos llevó a través de las partes más icónicas de las ruinas, teniendo en cuenta el ritmo y la accesibilidad, asegurándose de que no nos perdiéramos de nada importante. Lo que hizo la experiencia aún más especial fue el entusiasmo de nuestra guía. Estaba encantada de responder nuestras preguntas y compartir la rica historia de la zona con nosotros. Su energía y pasión fueron contagiosas, y durante todo el día irradiaba vibras positivas y saludables. También nos encantaron sus recomendaciones gastronómicas, ¡que nos dieron la oportunidad de experimentar la mejor cocina local!

From start to finish, everything was perfectly tailored to our needs, especially considering I was traveling with my 87-year-old grandmother. Our guide was **exceptional**—not only was she fully fluent in Spanish, but she also went out of her way to customize the tour to ensure my grandmother could comfortably enjoy everything. She took us through the most iconic parts of the ruins while considering the pace and accessibility, making sure we didn’t miss out on any important sights. What made the experience even more special was our guide’s enthusiasm. She was ecstatic to answer our questions and share the rich history of the area with us. Her energy and passion were infectious, and she radiated positive, healthy vibes throughout the entire day. We also loved her food recommendations, which gave us the chance to experience the local cuisine at its finest! The tour itself was informative, fun, and well-organized, and we learned so much about the fascinating history of Ephesus. Thanks to our guide's expertise, we also got amazing photos that will serve as wonderful memories from the day. The transport was also seamless and extremely comfortable, directly to/from our hotel and punctual! I highly recommend Bonita Tours because their guides are impeccable. This was truly the highlight of our vacation. If you’re looking for a personalized, enriching, and enjoyable experience, this is the tour company to go with. Choose a private tour and you won’t be disappointed!

Hatice and the company are very professional. Hatice is very knowledgeable of her country’s history and goes through the tour with such joy. Will definitely be returning.

Our day with Hatice was amazing! Hatice took the time to personalize our day in Kusadasi by taking us to the main highlights of the city as well as places that we had on our bucket list. Hatice educated us on the wonders of the Ephesus empire and ensured that we understood every little detail. Hatice also ensured to plan the day out by visiting spots when major tourist traffic was not present making out day more enjoyable. Highly recommend!

We visited Ephesus with Rehber Gülcan Talia our private guide. She was amazing. Explained in details the site with its rich history and landmarks. She was very friendly and helpful with all our other needs getting around town and suggested a good restaurant for us to have lunch before heading to the airport. We definitely recommend a private tour with Talia. She is knowledgeable and a fun guide.
