Amazing Ephesus Tour - Had an amazing time in Ephesus with Erdem! We visited the House of the Virgin Mary, a mosque, and the Temple of Artemis as well. Erdem was a tremendous guide and knew so much about the sites we visited.

Amazing day - Erdam was a very knowledgeable and helpful guide. I really enjoyed my walk around ephesus and heading the history behind the city really added some colour! He also stopped at a local shop where we could try/buy some delicious Turkish Delight. I couldn't recommend this experience enough.

Historical ephesus - İ found this trip agency via TripAdvisor because their good comments i saw. İ read Maybe 7-8 of them, was enough for me and i booked it. We were a group of 10.when they came tl pick us UP they were on time. From other botels We picked more guests. We started first with ephesus because in the afternoon it would be Hot so our super guide erdem decided to go first ro ephesus. One of the Best preserved historical cities. The library was breathtaking where We also did the group picture. There are lot of cats There. They are taking care by the aniamal lover guides and security. After ephesus We went to lunch than to the house of virgin Mary. Where she is believed to live becore she passed away. After We had a leather factory visit. My husband was happy with that. Bought 2 jackets There, We had a Quick visit ro a mosque and as Last the ruins of the Temple of Artemis... Thank you very much to our guide erdem to make the tour funny and educational. He teached us a lot about the ancient life...

A great historical place with a great guide! - This tour was wonderful on all accounts, especially the tour guide Mr. Umut Kurt who is knowledgable and kind. He is so passionate about his work that we thought lucky for the day to have him as our guide. Of course, Ephesus was impressive and great to visit.

Best day tour ever - From pickup to dropoff we were treated like royalty. Our guide Bariş was so attentive to our needs and had tons of information to share. We saw so many wonderful sights, ate delicious food, bought meaningful gifts, and made new friends. We cannot believe how much we saw in just one day. We have taken many tours but this is definitely one of the best!

Magnificent Ephesus by Baris the magnificent ! - We had a wonderful day with Baris guiding us around in Kusadasi - Ephesus area. Small group, we shared the van with another couple which was perfectly fine. Vehicle was super clean, well maintained, A/C works (it is an important element...!) Baris was our tour guide who came to pick us up from our hotel right on time to the minute. (very much appreciated) he truly has a superior knowledge, knows what 'tourism' is. Ever in Kusadasi - Ephesus area, look for these guyz, they are the best in business.

Ephesus Tour - The tour was great and very thorough! A lot of negative reviews for other tours mentioned a lot of time spent taking the tourists to shops and pressuring them to buy. But our tour guide, Baris, was not like that at all. He upfront told us that the shopping stops were optional and asked us which ones we wanted to go to. Baris was very knowledgeable and able to answer all our questions throughout the tour. He is also vaccinated which made us feel much more comfortable in this pandemic! He stayed 2 hours extra then what was planned so that we could go at our own pace. Overall, a great experience!
