Very informative and enjoyable - This was a great tour to see and learn about Ephesus. Make sure to wear sturdy shoes with good traction - the marble at Ephesus is VERY smooth/slippery, and some areas are gently sloped. This trip included a carpet demonstration after visiting Ephesus. We were unsure if we wanted to do this portion, but decided to and we were glad we did. It was very informative, and while we had the opportunity to buy, it was not a high pressure experience. The Turkish people were very hospitable. Our tour guide, Alper G., was very informative, friendly and flexible. He knew so much about the history and culture of the area. He patiently answered our many questions, chatted on the shuttle ride - explaining what to expect, offered to take photos for us to remember the experience, and gave some recommendations for shopping, etc. at the end of the trip. We enjoyed Ephesus and recommend the excursion.

What a fascinating tour experience! - This was a most enlightening tour with an absolutely wonderful and supremely informative tour guide, Füsun. A history buff and former archeology student, she gave us an incredibly robust tour of the Ephesus ruins. We also (at my request) stopped to see how Turkish rugs were made (a fascinating side trip you don’t want to miss) where we also enjoyed a Turkish lunch. Not only did Füsun act as tour guide, but she also accompanied us to seek out a specific piece of jewelry I was on the hunt for, extending her tour time with us ever so generously. We felt like we had made a new friend by the end of our time with her. Very highly recommend!

Wonderful Experience - We were two female friends in our 60's traveling together. We were on a cruise ship and booked this as an independent tour. It was wonderful. Mesut, our guide, was the most warm, friendly and knowledgeable young man. He was very processional and took every effort to make certain he provided us with the amount of information we desired. It was a very enjoyable day. I highly recommend Mesut as your guide.

Ephesus Shuttle - We had a fabulous tour with Meli during our stop in Kusadasi. We were picked up right outside the gangway and enjoyed comfortable transportation throughout the day. We toured the House of the Virgin Mary and Ephesus in the heat but Melis was able to find us shade at spots. Our tour ended with a fantastic authentic Turkish lunch buffet. I highly recommend this company.
