The best day ever! - We selected this tour out of all the others due to the high reviews!! Here comes another. Josh lived up to his description of the tour and even exceeded what we expected. From the first meeting at the cruise port to the final goodbye he was attentive to everyone and their needs. No one was rushed and our itinerary was definitely made by us! Thank you Josh for an exceptional visit to beautiful Ephesus!

So quick but got it in… - Our guide Bușra, was everything great about Turkey…cultured, proud and full of surprises…NCL only gave us 5 hours (party foul) on Norwegian, but she somehow got us through 4 historic sites and back to the boat on-time. You need more time in this area so rich in history, so stay away from short port calls to K-dasi. Would use her again.

Wonderful Cruise Stop - Would highly recommend this tour of the Ancient City of Ephesus. Josh our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and very patient as there were 10 of us. The tour included Mary’s House, the Basilica of St. John, and a stop to see carpet weaving, which was very interesting. Ephesus is beyond words…something you need to visit to fully appreciate.

The best tour guide for Ephesus - Isik was a wonderful tour guide. She spoke excellent English and was a wealth of knowledge. My wife, 13-year old daughter and I learned so much about each place the we visited. We started the tour from the port with a private motorcoach ride to the ruins of Ephesus. We then got to visit Turkman weavers where we got to see demonstrations of Turkish carpets being hand-woven. Following the demonstration we ate an amazing lunch at the facility before traveling to see St. Paul’s basilica and the Temple of Artemis. What an experience! Highly recommend! Isik is the best!

Isik is the best! - We had a wonderful tour with Isik! She was a delight and full of knowledge. She found great spots for photos or shady spots for us to sit at times (as it was a hot day). The Turkmen weaving center was actually a fascinating demonstration that my 13 year old daughter loved. They were not pushy at all with the rug sales as I had heard about before, but they are so nice that it would have been enticing… we may have to consider it one day as they do an amazing job. My family really enjoyed the authentic Turkish meal and it was a great day. Thank you, Isik, for giving us such a delightful experience!! 5 stars :)

Great Experience at Kusadasi - Great experience! Isik was our tour guide and she did a great job educating us about Turkey in general and also provided details on each tour site. She did a great job managing our time, such that nothing was too much or overwhelming. I would recommend this tour!
