Superb tour of Ephesus with Gul - My husband and I had a tour of Ephesus with Gil and Omur which is one of the best tours we have done. Gul’s knowledge was clearly excellent but the way she shared it made the experience come alive for us. Omur was kind, patient and friendly which made for a very easy trip. The lunch provided was generous, very tasty and provided in a cool and pretty environment. Overall we would totally recommend both the company and Gul… if we were staying longer we would definitely ask for her as our guide again.

Great value for money day trip - A wonderful day out that was fascinating. It’s more than just history. Ephesus itself is stunning and well worth it on its own to find out the history and significance of the place. The Virgin Mary’s House was tranquil and spiritual, arriving early before the cruise ship tours, as we did, is definitely recommended. Walking through Ephesus with a knowledgable and friendly guide such as Hakan, made the history of the place come alive. The carpet weaving experience was informative and fascinating - and the rugs were beautiful. Lunch and the leather factory were also great value, before the beauty of Sirinçe. A great day out for all the family and value for money.
