Exciting Ephesus

Published on Feb, 2025

My second visit but just as wonderful as the first time. A definite must-see. Off peak season was great. Chilly but thin crowd was appreciated.

Exceptional experience

Published on Feb, 2025

Everything went according to plan. Meet up (just outside the ship port) was easy. Our guide, Pinar, was well spoken and organized. Her English was easy to understand. Bus pick up was easy at each stop. The Virgin Mary house was beautiful and had a sweet feeling inside. Tour of Ephasus was amazing. Pinar shared the highlights and was very well versed in the history. Terrace houses were our favorite part of the tour -- not to be missed, and well worth the extra cost. Small group of just 4 people was perfect. All in all, this was a perfect tour. 10 out of 10!

Great Experience

Published on Feb, 2025

Booked through get your guide. Our guide Taz was ready and waiting for us at the port exit. Taz was a great guide! Very informative and helpful. Would recommend them to anyone!

Wonderful experience

Published on Feb, 2025

Wonderful experience! Our guide, Jenghis, was attentive to the group's needs and was very knowledgeable about all of the sites we visited. Highly recommend this tour as the price was extremely reasonable, especially compared to a cruise ship excursion. Toured in a comfortable Mercedes Sprinter van.

AMAZING Private Tour of Ephesus and Mary's House

Published on Jan, 2025

Mr Nejdet was wonderful. He shared so much of his knowledge about his country. We had been to Turkey before but had not done a tour. We were so glad we did this. It was a day of learning, sightseeing, and history. This trip was one of the best excursions we did. The van was very clean, the driver was excellent, and Mr. Nejdet made sure he answered all of our questions and made sure the pace of walking kept up with everyone in our group.
