Our guide was Asli who... - Our guide was Asli who was very knowledgeable and made our day very memorable! The tour to Ephesus was informative and we felt like a friend was showing us around! The lunch was very good, followed by a rug making factory tour. After showing us how the rugs are made (lot of time/detailed work), They started rolling out a lot of rugs to show us and try and sell. We weren't really looking to buy and there was an interesting balance of pressure/no pressure. They are very proud of what they do (understandably) and a lot goes into each one, but they are not cheap. You can tell they would like to sell harder but are aware of not leaving a bad impression on the tour. I would definitely recommend it when going to Kudasai!
