My wife and I did this tour with her sister and brother-in-law while we were on a cruise.
Seda was our tour guide, and she was outstanding!
As a person of Muslim faith, she was knowledgeable, respectful and sensitive in working with clients having the Christian faith.
We were very impressed with the ancient ruins, learned a lot, and had a great time with Seda.
Seda, we continue to talk about our time with you, you are a special person!!

Our trip to Ephesus was amazing! Ismail was fantastic..and our entire family (4 siblings and spouses) believe this was the best experience of our entire 13 day trip to Italy and Greece

We had a fantastic time on this tour! Our tour guide, Burak, and our driver, Sherif, were amazing! He explained the historical site we visited, answered every question patiently, and took us to this amazing place for lunch!
He made sure we had (cold!) water and provided an umbrella for us as it was a hot day. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to have a great experience visiting these sites!

Wow, wow, wow! Ephesus was amazing and so inspirational to stand where Apostle Paul addressed the Ephesian people. Biblical history was brought to life by our knowledgeable guide, Nico. He enthusiastically navigated us through the city detailing events, translating inscriptions and making us feel as though we had passed through time. I highly recommend this tour and I hope Nico is your guide...he was fantastic!

Our guide, Leyla, from Ephesus Port Tours was absolutely terrific! She gave us a lot of information and a great introduction to her country. Thank you for organizing our day so well. We had a very enjoyable time seeing the sights that were most important to us, and even had a delicious lunch reasonably priced. Thank you very much for a memorable tour of Ephesus!
