Pickup details

We highly recommend you to meet at port after 30 / 45 minutes your ship docked to port in order beat crowds / school buses and hot weather in the afternoon. It is better to meet early to have a better tour in Ephesus before the crowds. ... Read more â–¼

This was the best tour we...

Published on Oct, 2023

This was the best tour we had on our 11 day trip thanks to Chuck who was a very knowledgeable guide who shared many interesting facts about the places we visited. He was very adept at minimizing crowds and long lines. As an added bonus, he took us to have a very authentic Turkish meal.

Ephesus - PRIVATE Tour Off Cruise Ship

Published on Jun, 2023

BURAK DOGANAY was the guide assigned to us. THE BEST guide of all ship and private tours we have taken over our years of travel. Wealth of information and patient with our slow place. Didn't feel rushed at all. First time booking through Viator, and although I was apprehensive, I was more than pleased. Thank you Bodak for making our stop in Ephesus such a wonderful experience.

Will certainly use them next year

Had a tour scheduled, They were great at setting things uo the way we wanted them Could not believe the great price and the communication back and forth was terrific. Due to the Coranvirus situation we could not take the cruise. They graciously cancelled with no problem. Great people !

Wonderful tour!

Published on Oct, 2019

Let me start by saying that it is easy to book with this company. Also, our cruise itinerary changed and Elif contacted us about the switch before our travel agent did in order to let us know that he could switch the tour date. Our day in Ephesus with Serdar (who came back a day early from his vacation in order to guide us) was perfect! If you are lucky enough to get him, you won’t be disappointed, but I’ll bet that all of their guides are good. We were met exactly where stated and a beautiful black Mercedes van picked us up. We spent the day learning about this historic and beautiful area. The tour of the ruins was the highlight. Having a gorgeous lunch in a picnic-like setting and having the opportunity to ask questions and converse with our personal tour guide was so fun. And finished with a quick informative tour of how the beautiful Turkish rugs are made. Great day!
