Our guide was phenomenal, the van was spotless. He knew so much about every stop, and arranged a lovely lunch in a beautiful garden. Highly recommend for small groups!

We had a terrific day with Tolga in Ephesus. He was nice, accommodating and very knowledgeable. There is a lot of walking on uneven surfaces involved in this tour so know that upfront. As others have mentioned the carpet weaving place is very interesting to see and we had a great lunch there but it is a hard sell trying to get customers to buy something so be aware of that upfront as well and manage however you can. We really enjoyed our day and seeing all of the sites. It was a great experience to be able to see these significant sites with a private guide.

Great experience seeing Ephesus. Tolga was a terrific guide, very knowledgeable about history and culture. Comfortable van. He was able to customize as needed based on interests. Great experience! Well worth it. Great value.

The tour was awesome, Tolga was very detail in explaining about the sites and went the extra mile in the tour. The views in our way to the virgen Mary house were amazing We definitely recommend this tour.

It was a fabulous day. Our best tour of our trip. Elfina was very knowledgeable and friendly. She felt like a friend. We really enjoyed Ephesus.

Wonderful guide Elif made our day great! Loved the sit down lunch. Loved the amphitheater and ruins. Mary’s house was great too.

Elif was the best tour guide. The knowledge and culture we learned made this so special. I highly recommend selecting her.

Ended up being just me, my husband and the tour guide and it was fantastic! Our guide was so friendly and knowledgeable, we loved the tour of Ephesus, she took us to a fantastic, authentic lunch and to many extra experiences such as demonstration of silk carpet making, ceramic making and a leather shop. Not to be missed!

This tour was incredible! Elif our guide was amazing! We had our 1 year old baby with us and she was so helpful and understanding and even stopped at a local grocery store so I could get him some more baby food. The Ephesus ruins are stunning and Elif was an expert on the history and really made Ephesus come alive for us. With each stop she meaningful knowledge and stories to share. Before the day was over we had a delicious Turkish lunch, some Turkish apple tea and were able to learn about how Turkish carpets are made and watch some ladies making them by hand. All in all it was the highlight of our trip and I can’t wait to go back and book a tour with Elif again!

Elif was the BEST tour guide and made our day so special. We ended up being there only one’s on the tour and were very thankful they didn’t cancel on us. We had our 1 year old with us and she was so kind with him and helpful. We learned so much and had an incredible lunch. Definitely the highlight of our cruise! We can’t wait to come back and book with her again!

Good tour guide. Tour does not include admissions fees. Found this out at the end of the tour. Paid $130+ for the tour and then paid tour guide 120 euros for fees. Don't know what the fees were. Found out later fee for Mary's house was 12 euros. I had been there before and would have skipped the 30 second trip thru a house that did not look to be 2000 years old. Included in the tour, but not advertised were the 2 side trips - to the Ceramics shop and rug sales shop. Rug shop was high pressured. Cheapest rug we saw was $2000. The highest was $17,000. Printout from vendor has one at the bottom of page that says admission fees are not included, but does not say how the fees are or that the fees are about as much as the whole tour. The tour was very good, but the total cost was a surprise.

Tugba was a wonderful guide. She was very knowledgeable and professional. She was acccomodating to our slow movements and careful steps. We enjoyed being with her.

I really enjoy the tour. The tour guide is very knowledgeable and sincere. It was good to walk where St. John walked and house of Virgin Mary .Timing is perfect clean car

Great day tour. Tolga met us at the port and took us to many sights including an amazing lunch! He is full of great information and does a great job making it all interesting. He helped us understand the history of Ephesus and kept it simple so my history challenged mind could understand.

A highlight of our trip to Greece was taking a cruise around the islands and this stop in Ephesus, Turkey did not disappoint. As a Christian, it was overwhelming to walk where the apostle Paul, John, Timothy, Mary and others walked, lived and shared the good news of Jesus. There is a water baptismal there that the very first Christians were baptized in! Our tour guide was very informative! Ephesus is an absolute must see!

The guidance of the tour was amazing! The history of the house of Virgin Mary was well explained and the whole Ephesus tour was so fascinating. There was also a variety of delicious food!

We were picked up at the port by our guide Ozlem and she was amazing! She was very knowledgeable and friendly. She brought us to many amazing sites as well as to lunch at a local restaurant. The location AND food was amazing, we enjoyed it so much!

Our guide Osman (Ozzie) was amazing. Her handle on historical facts and view from her cultural background was enlightening as well. Honestly the best excursion we took on our cruise. Only advice is if they offer up going to the rug weaving stop say NO. It was a hard sell to buy stuff and the only negative point of the tour.

Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. We had plenty of time to explore all areas without being rushed. Lunch was beautiful and very good.

Our guide, Gül, was absolutely incredible!! She was fun and warm with a depth of knowledge on Ephesus that was astounding. She tailored our tour to fit our tastes and allowed us lots of free time for photos or whatever we wanted. I cannot recommend her enough !
