Excellent tour guide for the 7 Churches.

Akiie_N, Jan 2024

Tour guide, Mr. Emre was excellent one to told all histories, geography and Christian input (the Bible). His knowledge and information were great. I am ordained pastor and had studied the Bible for over 40 years, but his knowledge about the 7 churches and Roman Empire era were beyond my knowledge. We recommend Emre for Christian history tour in Turkey. He also had great knowledge about archaeology of the seven churches. In the future, we would like to ask Emre as our tour guide in Turkey. Many thanks to Viator to introduce Emre as our tour guide. Also a driver was good and felt safe travelling for 4 days. Akiie and Marcy Ninomiya from Canada
