Very Enjoyable Day - Although I had been to Greece before, I had never been to the port of Izmir so did not know what to expect on this tour. Our guide, Yram, and driver met us just outside the cruise terminal as I had been advised. The drive to Ephesus was about 1 hour through beautiful scenery, which Yram described for us.
I cannot say enough positive about Yram. She was friendly, knowledgeable and very informative. She answered any questions we had. Once at Ephesus, she guided us through the site imparting much detail.
It was a very enjoyable day and would recommend this tour.

Fun time at Ephesus - Our guide Orkan was the best! He was fun and provided a ton of information. He showed us everything we needed to see at the ruins of Ephesus, we had a nice lunch and visited a rug making place. They weren’t overly pushy, but it was for selling the rugs. They were amazing and it was also interesting. Our time was not long in this port and he made sure we were back in plenty of time.

Great Close Up and Private Tour Around Ephesus - Leyla was an amazing guide. She was very knowledgeable, informative, thorough, and clear in the information about the culture and history of Ephesus. We also went to a carpet factory and learned how they make rugs and a leather factory
where we had a private fashion show and saw many fabulous clothng and jackets.
Leyla was so sweet, friendly, and personable, yet professional. I highly reccomend this private tour around Ephesus. You won't regret it. You'll learn a lot and have fun at the same time.
Our driver, Birol ws excellent too in getting us from place to place in a timely manner, having the temperature in the van comfortable and having cold water to refresh us after walking around in the hot sun at one of our stops.

Fantastic experience touring Ephesus! - We had an absolutely fantastic experience touring Ephesus with Bilal as our guide. From start to finish, Bilal was exceptional. He guided us every step of the way, ensuring we didn’t miss any of the incredible sights. His deep knowledge of the history and current significance of each location truly enriched our experience. He also knew all the best photo spots, making sure we captured our memories in the most beautiful settings. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend our limited time in Izmir. Thank you so much, Bilal, for an unforgettable tour (and for keeping us in the shade)! Highly recommended!
