Beautiful, Spectacular Ephesus - Our tour guide Tolga was fantastic! He was knowledgeable, friendly and full of tales of by gone times. The ancient city of Ephesus is spectacular and the preservation of the ruins blew my mind. Highly recommend this tour and ask for Tolga. You will not be disappointed

Wonderful experience in Ephesus and more - Gözde was a wonderful guide. She was extremely knowledgeable and was patient with us and answering all of our questions. We especially enjoyed our tour of Ephesus and our local lunch. She even shared with us some food she had prepared from home. We also benefited from her guide experience, she timed our different tour stops to reduce the volume of crowds we had to deal with. We felt well taken care of and like we were able to see as much as we wanted of our short time in Turkey. In fact, she was willing to show us more but we needed to get back to our ship! Overall, it was a well-paced and educational experience. Gözde's appreciation and enthusiasm for her country was apparent and appreciated!

Time Well Spent -- a Yes!! If you go to Kusadasii - When you book as for Furman Kahraman -- we were well taken care of. Let's talk about the excursion itself -- first to Ephesus -- and you should also ask to see the temple.of Artiemis and St. John's church which is at a different site feom the main Ephesua Archaelogocal site. We also did the Ephesus 3D experience which went well. Then lunch, then on the same site as lunch we saw traditional carpet making, saw how silk is extracted from silk eggs and could purchase rugs if desired -- shipped to your doorstep. Unto Serince we went for a walk about this hiltop town and wine tasting, but not before getting local made sorbet along the way. If you love your leather items wallets, bags and accessories you should ask to stop and the luxury leather store in Selcuk....and plan aforehand for your budget too -- for you will see items you like for sure. Best to take your time through the Ephesus tour, stop take pictures, ask questions read the boards, it adds richness...and you'll feel time, energy and resources well spent.

A most wonderful tour day! Our minds and hearts are full. - Arzu was our tour guide for the most wonderful day! She holds exceptional knowledge of culture, history, and architecture. It was made even better because we had special interest in history and the biblical history of the area. Our lunch was fantastic and satisfying. We had enough but still there was more to eat! What a wonderful ending together. Our diver was also professional and kind. They both helped in non intrusive ways to make it even better with using a cane to navigate the uneven terrain. Pur hearts are full and minds also, including a new love of Türkiye!

A Day to Remember - Our guide Is experienced and my wife and I benefited tremendously from our tour of The Virgin Mary’s House, Ephesus and St. John’s Church. At each venue, interesting historical and contextual information was provided. As a keen historian, the information was balanced, accurate and always entertaining. Ephesus is a must see location and very close to Kusadasi. This Travelshow tour has broadened my horizons and has enriched our understanding of Turkish culture.
