Awesome Tour of Ephesus! - Perfect tour of the highlights of Ephesus. Our guide, Gufte, was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. She took us to extra stops—Turkish Delight factory that we were thrilled about, local family-owned ceramics store, and local rug making cooperative with exquisite carpets. These were special handmade local artisans with quality you wouldn’t find at the port stores. We had a great day!

A perfect day - This team was incredibly flexible and accomodating when our flight unexpectedly got cancelled last minute and we needed to reschedule. Derya was an amazing tour guide. She was super friendly and so so knowledgeable on all the areas we visited. Since we were quite fast and a small group we even went to a few extra places that were unexpected and very interesting. Pickup and drop off to our hotel was much appreciated and was very smooth. So was the driving all day, the driver was also amazing. We both had a great day hanging out with Derya and would highly recommend her and this tour. It was quite difficult to find tours online not aimed at cruise ship passengers but this was perfect.

Fantastic tour with a great guide. - Güfte was an amazing guide. She had a lot of information, but didn't overwhelm us with too much information too fast. She was professional, met us on time, clear in her communication ahead of time, accommodating, amazing. We were fortunate to have chosen a day to visit Ephesus between huge cruise ship days, so we did not have the enormous crowds that one can expect in June. Bring water and a hat if you go in the summer. I highly recommend this tour with Puerto Travel. You'll be very lucky if you get Güfte as your guide. If it's possible to book your tour with pre-purchased tickets included, do it-especially in the busy season.
