Traveler reviews
Ephesus Port Tour
Eren was great. Very knowledgeable of the area, very good English, friendly and attentive to our needs. He helped us plan our day to get it in the proper order to avoid the long lines. We toured the ruins of Ephesus, visited the Virgin Mary’s home, a traditional “pottery making family” (exceptional), local seller of “all things Turkish” (informative and fun) and a carpet weaving family business (you really need to see this). The tour went longer than planned and Eren and our driver (we enjoyed a private tour-you will never do a mass cruise ship tour again) were gracious and hung in there. Highly recommended.
An amazing experience in Ephesus!
Eren was an amazing tour guide!! Fun, easy going, yet knowledgeable on every place we visited. I learned so much about Ephesus!! It’s hot pack sunscreen! I would high recommend this tour and Eren!
Best tour in Efesus
Huseyin Yonet is amazing. It was one of the best experiences through my trip in Turkey. I strongly recommend to take a tour with him.
Excellent Tour
We enjoyed our tour very much. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and very pleasant. We were able to see a lot of places. We did go to a rug factory but didn’t feel pressured to purchase anything. They even stopped at a store for us on the way to the ship to buy a few essentials that we needed. Highly recommend. Efficient, great communication and easy to locate outside the port.
Private Ephesis Tour
Selcuk was a great guide. We saw Ephisis and the surrounding area. He is very knowledgable of Turkish history. He tailored the tour to our liking and even showed us local artist shops. It was a great tour!
