Ephesus Highlights Tour for Cruisers from Kuşadası Port

Mehmet was a great host, showing us around at our own pace. He had plenty of interesting things to tell us about what we were seeing and could knowledgeably answer our questions. The vehicle was very comfortable and the driver was great. I would recommend to anybody visiting this wonderful area.

We did this private Ephesus tour during our cruise stop in Kusadasi. Our guide met us at the port right on time and was very friendly and knowledgeable.his name is Great Ali We visited the ancient city of Ephesus, the Library of Celsus, the Great Theater, and the House of Virgin Mary. The car was clean and air-conditioned. We returned to the ship perfectly on time, with no stress. Lunch was delicious at a nice local restaurant. Our guide answered all our questions and explained everything clearly. It was so nice to explore at our own pace without being in a big group. Highly recommended! One of the best options for cruise passengers!

Our guide was fantastic - knowledgeable and accommodating! I learned more from her than any textbook in school!

Hassle free tour, great guide, bus and driver, We had a little bit of flexibility in our schedule and we didn’t do the time wasting leather, carpet, factories

We were greeted right off the ship and our guide Ali was polite, friendly, knowledgeable and understandable (he had studied in the US). Our driver was also polite and took us in a Mercedes van which was comfortable enough. The tour was very nice, our only real complaint was about the communication. We had requested several itinerary changes, but the website communications apparently went to an office instead of to the actual tour guide. He seemingly had no knowledge of our requests and so we did not end up doing what we wanted exactly, but we had a good time. Although we had requested to go to the Archeological museum instead of the rug and leather sales pitches, it was very informative to see how they make the rugs and the leather fashion show was fun. No high pressure at either thankfully and the rug school provided a lovely lunch for us. Ephesus was amazing and Ali had tons of information on it and other sites, as well as info on the region and country. He happily answered all of our many questions and was able to give insights about the culture. We also did the Ephesus Experience Museum and St. John's Basilica. The tour did last the seven or so hours as advertised.
