Extraordinary experience of rich deep history - Our guide Mel provided an extraordinary experience thoroughly covering the history with humor. The depth of these sites astounded all in our group. We had 8 participants and we all returned happy. Even the meal was excellent. I highly recommend this tour especially if Mel is leading.

Convenient and comprehensive tour of Ephesus and Sirince - It is a convenient and comprehensive way to get around 3 major sites. As it combines Virgin Mary’s home, Ephesus, Artemis Temple, and Sirince. You certainly pay a significant premium for the convenience of being of a private tour, with a private spacious and comfortable shuttle-bus and a guide. Also this tour includes a lunch in Sirince. The lunch was over my expectations, despite the fact that I was skeptical about the setup. It turned out to be great. The tour covered all that was intended to be covered, as mentioned. However if you are looking for more historic and elaborate counts, I would say this is rather too basic.

The best Izmir tour guide you could have possibly asked for! - Miss Isik - From the get go, not only we were delighted by Miss Isik’s friendly smiles and cheerful persona, her incredible insights to the history of each location definitely made the journey very impactful! We couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide. Thank you so much to Miss Isik for capturing our precious memories and for making our trip to Izmir a very memorable one!

Must do tour in Turkiye - It was a really great experience form the beginning to the end. The pick up and dropp was very smooth and easy. The tour part was very enjoyable with our guide Nizam and the driver. Nizam was knowledgeable and humorous which made the day more exciting and interesting for everybody. The pace is perfect as we are not rushi.g to go from place to place at least for us in our visit in November. All the sites we visited were interesting and had many valuable pieces of history worth visiting at least once in a lifetime. We highly recommend anyone coming to Turkiye and specifically Izmir to do this tour. Thank you Nizam for a great experience.

Mary’s chapel and Ephesus - After running a retreat the organisers arrange a tour for us to Ephesus. Our guide was a lovely lady Isik. She was excellent, informing us without overloading with information. She gave us the time we needed and understood the importance of allowing us time in certain places that were particularly special to our small group (4) namely Mary’s Church. Once done she guided us to an excellent restaurant were we enjoyed a late lunch. All in all a very good day.

From San Francisco, California, USA - Mel was a good guide. She was knowledgeable and made it fun. She liked to joke with the group and made everybody in the group feel comfortable. We were lucky to have her for the Pamukkale tour the next day as well. Thank you Mel.

An eventful and informative day! - Mel was a friendly, knowledgeable and caring tour guide who showed an obvious passion for her role. She was kind and caring toward us when my wife became unwell and unable to continue with the tour. She sought to engage with each member of the group and provided interesting bits of information about Ephesus, the Temple of Artemis and Sirince village.
