We booked with "No Frills" because we wanted a tour without commercial pressure. But we got much more. Mehmet met us as we docked, and Christine met us for lunch. They were very welcoming and gracious. Oktay provided us with great information and especially interesting alternative narratives on what buildings may have been, what symbols meant, and the deeper meaning...

Oktay was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and very funny. We had a great time on our tour with him and learned a lot about Roman history and culture. He definitely made Ephesus come alive for us.

We were looking to book a reasonable priced tour that focused on the facts and the main sites without the carpets, trinkets and lunch included.

We had a good full day tour that stopped at all the highlights. Our guide, Oktay, was knowledgeable, friendly, and not pushy at all. It was worth the price he charged.

Our guide, Oktay, studied history for four years at university & was able to answer any question we threw at him. The tour was interesting, informational & very enjoyable despite the rain. Nothing was pushed...

But we were very impressed all round with them - very easy booking, extremely knowledgeable guide (Oktay), a great place for lunch, very good value (a...
