Fun and Educational Tour of Ephesus - Ephesus is a very interesting Roman site, with a lot of history attached to it. On this tour, we were able to view and identify all of the ancient buildings there, after a pleasant drive from Izmir. Our tour guide, Erman, was quite knowledgeable and explained all of it very well.

Great tour, bus, food, and friendly/knowledgeable guide! - Awesome tour, and Erman was an excellent guide! Very friendly, excellent English, and clearly educated (I believe he has a degree in tourism which more or less makes him a history specialist in the tours that he conducts). He chatted with all of the tourists in the group and speaks a variety of languages (including fluent Spanish!). He was very attentive and made sure everyone was taken care of and not left behind. I wandered off and was able to find him again by calling him on WhatsApp. The tour itself was awesome, and the city was beautiful. I’m not into pottery, but the pottery shop was efficient and a worthwhile stop. Bus was comfortable, lunch was tasty. Erman deserves a raise!! Best tour guide I had in Turkey!

Magical - Ephesus itself is, of course, magnificent and magical! Erman, our tour guide, is very knowledgeable and friendly. I feel comfortable and safe as a solo traveller. I love that my group is small (I’m not sure if this will always be the case), but it makes it easy for interaction I would recommend going with this company if you ever need a tour guide!

Ephesus birthday outting - A wonderful day - and a perfect way to spend my birthday exploring the ancient city of Ephesus 🎉 Ermen was a delightful and knowledgeable guide giving us enough detail about what we were seeing without overwhelming us with information. Although crowded it was easy to find quiet spots and enjoy seeing the site. We especially enjoyed the terrace houses - we are particular to mosaics and frescos. Enjoyed the stop to test local produce.
