Let us start by saying that our guide Huseyin was amazing. He was extremely knowledgeable and personable. He made sure that all of us were comfortable and that we saw everything we wanted to see.Ephesus was everything we hoped for and he made this one of the best stops on our trip. We would definitely use him again.

We had a fantastic tour with Tijen, she created a perfect bespoke tour for us to fit our schedule and has deep knowledge of the religious and archeological aspects of Ephesus which we really enjoyed. She also provided us with some really helpful tips for our visit to Pamukkale and Goreme, thank you Tijen !

Ask for Tigen – She Brings Ephesus to Life!
We had a fantastic private tour of Ephesus with Tigen today, and we cannot recommend her highly enough.
Her knowledge was exceptional at every stop, from the House of the Virgin Mary and the ancient ruins of Ephesus to the local mosques and the leather factory. She has an impressive understanding of both the historical facts and the theology connected to the sites, explaining everything clearly and bringing the history to life.
What made Tigen particularly special was how personable and engaging she was. The tour never felt scripted or robotic. She took time to answer every question we asked and was able to provide knowledgeable, detailed answers throughout the day. She was friendly, patient and genuinely interested in making sure we had the best possible experience.
Lunch at the local restaurant was another lovely part of the day and gave us the opportunity to enjoy authentic local food in a relaxed setting.
If you are visiting Ephesus and looking for a guide, we would strongly recommend asking for Tigen personally. Her warmth, professionalism and outstanding knowledge made this an unforgettable day and one of the highlights of our trip.

Blessed in Ephesus
Tij was very personable and informed about the subjects that interested us the most. In addition, she helped us to be interested in subjects we knew little about. I appreciated her professionalism as well. Our driver was very friendly and had our Mercedes van waiting nearby with air-conditioning and water readily available. I would highly recommend this company, the guide and driver to anyone wanting exceptional service.

Great day in Kusadasi/Ephesus
Tijan made our visit to Kusadasi so very memorable. Our ship arrived in the afternoon and in spite of the heat she was so gracious, kept us hydrated and in the shade as much as possible. Her knowledge of the ancient history of Ephesus and the House of Mary was remarkable like a natural born teacher. She paid attention to all of our questions and when I expressed an interest in Turkish ceramics, she brought us to a wonderful shop where they actually designed and made beautiful ceramics. It was an unexpected surprise and a great way to end a wonderful day in Kusadasi. Tijan made the day so very memorable and we are so grateful

Kusadasi and Ephesus experience
We booked a whole day tour to visit Ephesus, The House of the Virgin Mary and the Temple of Artemis.
We were met at the port gate and taken to the Mercedes Sprinter (which was fully air conditioned).
We visited Ephesus first and Pinar our guide was excellent! Although the site was quite busy, she was able to show us the main sites and explain thoroughly the key facts for each. The tour took several hours but was a MUST SEE if you go to Kusadasi on a tour.
After a brief pit-stop we made our way to the House of the Virgin Mary. Pinar explained all the key facts on the journey to the house. We had time to look around the house ourselves before heading to the temple of Artemis.
Ephesus was the stand-out attraction for the day, but given the locality of the other two sites, it makes sense to see them too.
We were dropped back to the port entrance at the end of the day.
The whole day was well planned and exceptionally delivered.
We also used the same company in Istanbul

Amazing family tour of Kusadasi
Tijen Oral tour guide and driver Aydin were awesome! Tijen was very knowledgable and went at our pace. She knew just when to give us info and when to let us take time for pictures and discussion with our group. She became part of our family! Her stories and experiences made it extra special for us and made us feel at ease. Would highly recommend her and the company to anyone looking for an amazing tour guide!

Family tour from Kusadasi Pier
We took this tour from the cruise port and it exceeded our expectations. We booked through Guided Istanbul Tours based on the reviews and we were not disappointed. Tijen Oral was our tour guide.
There was excellent communication before the tour and she helped to recommend a departure time that put us well ahead of all the big bus tours so we avoided the crowds and the heat. Tijen was very knowledgeable and balanced a good blend of history and stories that made the tour fun, informative and interesting. . She chose an excellent family run restaurant for our lunch with tasty local food. Most importantly we were a family group and she was able to modify the tour to meet our wishes and help accommodate my dad who needed to take periodic rests. We highly recommend the tour and would happily book a tour.

Special Ephesus Guide Tijan
It was an amazing personal experience! Highly recommend! Our guide Tijan is very friendly, funny and caring guide with extensive historical knowledgeable about the area. She answered every question we had! She is like her name the crown of guides! The car also was very comfortable and the driver (Aslan) was also a careful, very good driver and generous person. If you want the inside knowledge of Ephesus, Selcuk & Kusadasi areas, Tijan is the best guide!
