Wonderful day - the highlight of our visit to Turkey! - This private tour was WONDERFUL from start to finish, we were greeted by the lovely Canan Aydın in our hotel lobby and then shown into our transport which was 10/10 itself, air conditioning, LED lights, very comfortable, water inside for our tour and a friendly driver. On the way, Canan explained the order of the tour and provided information on Ephesus and it’s history as well as lots of interesting facts about Kusadasi and Turkey. We went to all of the places listed and Canan gave us the guided tour explaining each part in detail and answered all of our questions. She took candid photos for us and was a joy to be with. So friendly and knowledgeable!! Inbetween Ephesus and the Temple of Artemis we stopped to visit a Bazar which was fantastic and we were very well looked after as her guests. After the visiting the Temple, we went to Arvalya Carpet for a traditional Turkish lunch (included in your tour price) followed by a tour of the rug centre where we were shown how the carpets are made, how the silk is made and the staff showed us their beautiful rugs. We were then dropped back off at our Hotel after a wonderful day. Side note: Entry tickets aren’t included in the private tour price, they are separate - don’t make the mistake we did thinking they were and come out without cash and card. Luckily was able to pay with Apple Pay :)
