Traveler reviews
Kusadasi Trip
Gokum was the absolute best guide.
Ibo is the greatest guide ever.
Ephasis is amazing, and Ibo knows so much history. He was eager to share his culture. He was very helpful to me because I was having trouble walking. I highly recommend asking for Ibo!
Great tour guide and tour
Tamer was phenomenal as a tour guide. English was great and his knowledge was superb! We were so tired from the past few days excursions so we were worried about a long day and super long lines. Tamer get us past most of the lines and knew the timing of heavy crowds. Definitely recommend the tour and ask for Tamer.
Highly recommended
Fatih & his driver were excellent tour guides. Fatih was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. We all had a fantastic time & were returned to cruise port in ample time.
The guide was...
The guide was knowledgeable. However, we were led to believe the leather and rug places would be the best deals. They were not. The vendors by the port were less expensive. The leather jacket I purchased would have been over 100 euros less.
