Traveller reviews
We really enjoyed our trip to Ephesus. It was a very interesting and well-organized experience, and we would especially like to thank our guide, Ekim. He is young, energetic and very knowledgeable about the history of Ephesus and the region. He explains historical facts in an engaging and easy-to-understand way, so the tour never felt boring or overloaded with information.
The tour Is very interesting and the guide was providing information throughout. So definitely reccomended. Howver, a part of the tour includes visiting a pottery shop which sells in EUR without mentioning It anywhere, so Watch out! And a souvenir shops with disproportially High prices compared tò market prics. For example, a soapy sponge sold at the shop for 500 Turkish lira which i buougt at the market for 70 Turkish lira.
Had a great time with guide Ekim on the tour to Ephesus. He has a wealth of knowledge about Türkiye and an amiable personality that makes everyone feel welcomed. He controlled the pace of the tour well, ensuring we had sufficient time to appreciate the places we visit and to also take some photos for our memories. Overall, really enjoyed the tour. Definitely recommend it for anyone looking to learn more about Ephesus and Türkiye 😊
An amazing tour, Efesus is worth to visit and our guide Ekim was fantastic. He explained everything about Efesus and the Artemis temple, he was very clear and well prepared.
We had a great experience with this tour, Erman Uslu was very knowledgeable and gave great insight on different parts of the tour.
A great way to see Ephesus and other interesting historic sites. The tour is full but goes at a reasonable pace. Emran is an excellent guide. Answers all your questions and is very helpful. His stories add a lot do color and depth to the place. Would 100% recommend this tour.
The trip included additional high pressure purchase stops such as food store and a high end leather clothing store complete with models on cat walk. Paid for group lunch but we then had to purchase drinks. No water provided which seemed stingy. Would have liked more time in Ephesus instead of the shopping forced on us. Tour leader was good though.
I had booked this guide tour in the last minutes. They were so efficient to response to my request with a full schedule. Erman was brilliant with full of enthusiasm, professional knowledge & kind care for the whole group. I believe this is one of the best choices. Thank you so much for looking after us.
