Multi-generational Encyclopedic Guide - Hatice is absolutely amazing! This is the second time our family has used Hatice and we’ve already booked our third trip with her. Besides her truly encyclopedic knowledge, perhaps her greatest gift is a more personable one. She was able to provide a tour that was enjoyable and informative for three generations, which is not something most guides can do. Thank you again Hatice for a most memorable day!!!

Amazing trip to Turkey!! - My partner and I and another couple had the pleasure of touring Ephesus, Kusadasi, and Istanbul with Hatice Kelek. It was an amazing tour. Hatice was so knowledgable, funny, and personable. She arranged a private van and driver to escort us around. Not only did we visit the historical ruins and mosques, but Hatice took us to a cat cafe, and a beautiful area she knew with a garden and a restaurant serving the best doner. We also went to a quaint street with handmade crafts and bought fresh fruit from a street vendor. Hatice knew all the history and added some extra philosophy that she had learned from her readings. By the end of the tour not only did she do her job extremely well but she had become our friend. You won't be disappointed if you sign up with Hatice!!

Amazing Trip - Amazing Guide - Hatice, our guide, was amazingly kind, friendly and knowledgeable. She has the unique ability to make the tour engaging for everyone - adults and children - history buffs and those who don’t care. Our son is a history aficionado and Hatice was able to keep him on his toes. Our family visited Kusadasi on vacation. Our tour consisted of a visit to the ancient city, shopping and lunch. Amazing experience!!!

Fabulous Tour Guide! - We had an amazing tour with Hatice who was so warm, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Our tour felt very personalised, giving us insights that you do not always get from guide books and lesser tours. She set the tour at our pace and our group all had a really great time. I would definitely recommend Hatice as your guide if you ever decide to visit Ephesus. It was a fantastic experience!

Great tour, with a very informative guide - We did a tour of Ephesus, the Virgin Mary’s house, and the temple of Artemis with a stop for lunch at a local restaurant and a rug weaving demonstration. Our guide Hatice was fantastic, she was very knowledgeable, and passionate. I felt like she worked hard to provide us with a great day. When we normally travel and sightsee, especially ruins, or anything religious. I tend to sit back and just look forward to when it’s over while being polite and pretending to show some level of interest. While my spouse is fully engaged, asking questions, and wanting to see more. On this tour I found Hatice to be very personable, the way she delivered the information captured my interest and I actually found myself asking questions and engaging. The meal was delicious and the introduction to carpet weaving was surprisingly interesting. She made our very quick stop over in Kusadasi, memorable and I am glad she was available to show us the sights.

Great Day - A very pleasant day trip including the highlight of a visit to Ephesus to see the ancient ruins. With only a short time to visit Turkey before flying home we opted to arrange a private tour to hit some highlights. Our guide Hatice spent time to get to know us and our interests and personalized our tour allowing us to get the most out of our experience. She was very knowledgeable about the history and culture of the area allowing an efficient and interesting day of touring, including cultural aspects that would not be available in larger group tours.
