Best ever Ephesus tour - Our tour guide took care of us, from the hotel pick up to our return. He has so much knowledge and experience that our tour was very enjoyable and we learnt a lot about its history. He explained every site and related facts of the ancient place. Thanks so much for sharing with us your knowledge and experience

Wonderful tour! Isik was... - Wonderful tour! Isik was a great guide! She was very knowledgeable, which really added to the experience. Highly recommended!

Fantastic! - The tour itinerary and our guide was excellent, she wouldn't mind if you call her "D". Very well organised tour and she knows the history of efes very well. She took care of everything including lunch and skip the line tickets.

Very enjoyable experience - The guide was very nice and informative. I enjoyed the lunch very much and the sightseeing. Highly recommended tour.

The history of Ephesus... - The history of Ephesus and the house of the Virgin Mary, as described by our very knowledgeable guide, was very educational.

Excellent guide and driver - Excellent guide Riza, and driver, Erdogan. I would highly recommend. The tour was very informative, and the food was excellent, too. Felt very safe throughout, with my spouse and two children. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to see this part of Turkey.

Efe is the GOAT - Tours can vary drastically in quality from guide to guide. Most guides simply leave you with nothing much to complain about, having walked you through the popular destinations with some amount of explanation, often incomplete. I'm pleased to write that Efe is much better. We spent two days with him, touring Hierapolis and Ephesus, and he was really a delightful guide to have when touring such historically rich sites. He told a rich historical narrative about these areas, letting us understand what life was like for the people living there, and he knew all sorts of interesting tidbits about life in Roman times. Additionally, Efe was really well spoken and easy to talk to; he has a lot of worldly knowledge and common sense, making conversation effortless and fun. He isn't just a local expert on these ruins, he has a lot of knowledge about history in general. Really, the whole tour was just a seamless experience. I can't recommend Efe (and the city of Ephesus) enough.

Excellent experience! - My husband and I took a private day tour to Aphrodisias and Pamukkale with Yavuz as our guide and Sharif as our driver. They were both excellent in knowledge of the area and extremely helpful. Aphrodisias is a must see (which we understand many tourists miss) and of course Pamukkale/Hieropolis was amazing and so much larger and expansive than we expected. But for Yavuz we two seniors would have walked uphill and tired ourselves out in the hot sun - he told us about the golf carts which we engaged and were very thankful we did. Having a guide is the only way to see these areas!

Amazing trip - Our guide Emre was very flexible. We were able to plan out the trip based on our interests given that it was a private tour. Learned a lot from him. Would recommend for anyone going on a day trip to Ephesus.

Poor experience, running out of Ephesus to visit some shops... - (Review en Español tras la de Inglés) I booked a tour to Ephesus, the house of the Virgin Mary, and Sirince on July, 6th, 2023. I booked the tour in Spanish for my family, that were visiting Izmir for my wedding. There were several things wrong, that should make you reconsider if booking with this company is worth it: 1- We didn't go to Sirince. It seemed like the tour guide was in a rush, and "forgot" about it, although I specifically asked for the visit during the tour. 2- In Ephesus, we skipped the theatre. This is a major attraction, as in the words of the tour guide, "it is closed because of some renovation work". This was not the case, and I told my family to go and take a quick look and visit if they wanted. 3- We spent an enormous amount of time in shopping outside Selçuk. I then understood immediately the rush on the important parts. 4- The Spanish level was far from good. The tour guide (Rabia) had probably a B1 level. 5- A couple of members of my family could not join. Even though we talked about paying ONLY for the people present on the tour, they made us pay these 2 extra. 6- The tour guide was rude and not very knowledgeable. When asked about these situations, from the central office they told us they were going to reimburse 52€ for not going to Sirince. The tour was 37€ p.p. We were 18 (with the 2 missing). Overall, I will not recommend this tour. It is much more worth it to check other options, or even get into Ephesus yourself. You can always hire a tour guide simply in the ancient city, and it will take you for some hours there. We were only there for 1 hour and a half... ------- Reservé un tour a Éfeso, la casa de la Virgen María y Sirince el 6 de julio de 2023. Reservé el tour en español para mi familia, que estaba de visita en Izmir para mi boda. Había varias cosas mal, que deberían hacerte reconsiderar si vale la pena reservar con esta compañía: 1- No fuimos a Sirince. Parecía que el guía turístico tenía prisa y se le "olvidó", aunque pregunté específicamente sobre esta parte durante el recorrido. 2- En Éfeso, nos saltamos el teatro. Esta es la mayor atracción, ya que en palabras del guía turístico, "está cerrado por unas obras de reforma". Este no era el caso, y le dije a mi familia que fueran y echaran un vistazo rápido y lo visitaran si querían. 3- Pasamos un tiempo enorme en unas tiendas a las afueras de Selçuk. Entonces comprendí inmediatamente la prisa por las partes importantes. 4- El nivel de español estaba lejos de ser bueno. El guía turístico (Rabia) probablemente tenía un nivel B1. 5- Un par de miembros de mi familia no pudieron unirse. A pesar de que hablamos de pagar SOLO por las personas presentes en el recorrido, nos hicieron pagar estos 2 extra. 6- El guía turístico era un poco grosera y no estaba muy informada. Al preguntar por estas situaciones, desde la oficina central nos dijeron que nos iban a devolver 52€ por no ir a Sirince. El tour costaba 37€ p.p. Éramos 18 (faltaban los 2). En general, no recomiendo este tour. Vale mucho más la pena comprobar otras opciones, o incluso entrar en Éfeso uno mismo. Siempre puedes contratar un guía turístico simplemente en la ciudad antigua, y te llevará algunas horas allí. Solo estuvimos 1 hora y media...
