Awesome Experience! - This was an awesome experience! Selçuk was an amazing guide— he knew so much information and was able to answer all of our questions about the sites. He was also very accommodating for our groups needs. Overall, I would definitely recommend, as I did not know anything about the sites going in and it was extremely interesting!

The guide was funny and friendly, and also knew how to tell stories in a way that made the history easy to understand and engaging. Overall, I highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to travel, learn about history, and explore a place with a guide who truly understands the culture and history.

Thank You to Our Wonderful Guide, Gozde — A Memorable Ephesus Tour - We usually choose private tours for the flexibility to customize the itinerary (for example, replacing touristy shopping with another stop) something our private tours in Istanbul and Cappadocia handled easily. Given the price, we were a bit surprised that even minor itinerary changes came with an additional charge.
In the end, everything worked out well and we were glad we visited the Basilica of St. John on our own the following day, which allowed us to spend more time with our kids and fully enjoy the views. But we were also glad we could see the Terrace Houses during our Ephesus tour.
What truly made the tour worthwhile was our guide, Gozde. With her background in archaeology, she answered our questions about history and religion in depth, took us to a wonderful, authentic gözleme place she has visited since childhood and made the entire Ephesus experience memorable. We would highly recommend her!
