Our guide Ekim Ateş was excellent and created a fully customized tour for our small group of 3 adult family members. We preferred to spend more time viewing the amazing tile mosaics in the hilltop houses in Ephesus and less time at the ruins of the temple of Artemis, and Ekim accommodated our request. It does take some time to reach Ephesus from the airport, so give the amount of time spent on the return trip to the airport, next time we would probably try to spend longer as there is a lot to see if you are interested in Roman history.

Private Tour is the Way to Go
This was a great tour! We had 5 girls so doing the private tour was perfect. Our tour guide & driver were awesome. Just be aware that all tours want you to stop at one of the "factories". It can be rugs, jewerly, pottery...etc. With a private tour you can decline. We did go see the leather. They even did a fashion show.
The city of Efes is definitely worth seeing. Make sure to go see Virgin Mary's house.

4 hours in Ephesus
for those with limited time and on a customizable guided tour - recommend skipping Temple of Artemis, House of Mary and lunch at neighbouring “picturesque” villages. So much to see in Ephesus - don’t miss the terrace house. Stone walkways are very slippery so wear shoes with good grip.

With little time we did much
The Service very professional and friendly at the same time, has been an appropriate tour for the time we had (which was little) we have made the most of our time. The guide Simon has been a great help, he brought his knowledge and experience

Amazing Tour!
Absolutely perfect day! Ali was amazing, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable! He adjusted the schedule to avoid the peak crowd times and we always felt safe. I can’t recommend this tour and Ali, as the guide, enough!

Memorable tour of Turkey
Ozzy, our local tour guide was informative and entertaining as he introduced our group to wonderful historical Turkish sites. Super nice lunch and tour of authentic Turkish carpet weaving operation. Transportation provided in very clean and comfortable tour van. Highly recommend!

Great tour but make sure you get a great guide!
Our guide, Ekim, completely made this tour. Ephesus is definitely a special place but can also be long, very busy, and overwhelming. Ekim had the perfect balance of fun, history and just a wonderful person, with so much knowledge and maturity. We've been on many tours around the world and this was one of the best.
If you book this, make sure you request Ekim!

Turkey with Selda!
Zelda was amazing! Very knowledgeable and kind. With it so busy she was able to adapt and navigate our tour group around the long lines. We didn’t have to wait for more than a couple minutes in any line! Our driver was great too with a very nice van. Fantastic job!!

Great experience!
Selda was an excellent tour guide. She kept us on track and pivoted when lines were too long during a VERY hot day. She anticipated our needs so well. We had the best day exploring ruins, learning all about rugs & ceramics, enjoying lunch, & the Church of Virgin Mary. Lastly, bringing us back to our cruise port on time. Thank you - 5 stars for Selda!
