Lovely time in Turkey - Marat was our guide today. He was so knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. We were very happy with our tour and would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Kusadasi and surrounding area.

Great half day private tour - Necat was our tour guy. He was thorough and knowledgeable. He was proud to share his Turkish culture and history. We learnt quite a bit from him. The lunch was simple and tasty. We were brought to a carpet making school and ended up buying a silk carpet. We recognized the boss who tried hard to sell us a carpet a year ago in Montenegro. What’s the odd to see him again in Turkey??? Overall, it’s a well organized private tour.

Efe did a wonderful job showing us the beauty and history of Ephesus. - Efe was very professional and very knowledgeable about the Attractions that he took us to, including the ancient city of Ephesus, Andy Virgin Mary’s house. He showed us an explained what we were looking at when we went to the temple of Artemis as well as the basilica of St. John.. It was a very hot day, making it a little uncomfortable. It was definitely a joy to get into that beautiful clean private van that took us from place to place.
The lunch was good. We had kebabs and salad. I would recommend this tour and this tour guide. He did everything to make our day comfortable and enjoyable.

Great Tour - Great overall tour! Communication was good before the tour and pick up went smoothly as set up. Ender was a knowledgeable, professional guide and the driver did a great job of picking us up at designated places on time. Vehicle was well maintained and clean. Cold water provided. The pace of the tour was adjusted for the heat and our age yet we saw everything. Information shared was engaging and the guide’s command of English made it easy to understand and ask questions. Lunch was wonderful. Great tour!! Start to end!! Highly recommend!!

Excellent experience!!!! - This was the best tour we have ever experienced. The guide (Ikhut, I think I spelled in correctly) was phenomenal! He is so knowledgeable on everything we did!! The lunch was delicious and the carpet making was extraordinary!!! Yes, there ii is a sajes pitch but we never felt pressured at all. It was simply a lesson on their carpets and offer for us to purchase. If I were in the market for a rug, I would have considered it!!! Thank you for a great time!!! I highly recommend this tour!!!

Great Trip - We had no idea what Turkey was like, as none of us had ever been here before. Nora, our tour guide, brought it all alive for us. Fascinating country. Did not know the bonds with early Christendom were so strong.

Best shore excursion with Cihat - Awesome tour with Cihat
We didn’t really know what to expect with this shore excursion but was hands down our favorite tour!
Ciihat was professional, knowledgable, gave us a great tour. The information he provided on Mother Mary’s house and Ephesus and everything else he did was amazing.
We managed to get to Mary’s house before a bus tour so we walked right in and no waiting in line.
At end of day he walked with us into kusadasi to show us where to shop in the market .
Great day highly recommend Thai tour with Cihat

Customized Ephesus tour with a great guide - We had visited Ephesus before and wanted to fill in the gaps, also have some physical limitations, so keeping up with a large group would be hard. Our knowledgeable, personable guide Oz started by finding out about what we wanted. Not only did we have a marvelous tour of the terrace houses, but he pointed out some fascinating aspects we missed on our earlier tour and took us to what’s left of the Artemis temple. He was sensitive to our needs and interests, which certainly made it worthwhile to have a private tour!

AMAZING - This was absolutely the best tour. Having a personal guide was amazing. Our person was very knowledgeable in all the areas we went. Were we went and how long we stayed was completely up to us. After going to Ephesus and Marys house we had extra time to see other places. Our guide recommended a local school were they teach locals how to hand make rugs. It was fascinating to see the beautiful designs and how skillful they were. After that he took us to a family run business that made pottery and painted them. It was great to see a few culture businesses from Turkey.
