There were three of us on the private tour of Ephesus. We had a 2-day old Mercedes van and were very comfortable. The Ephesus tour was made special by our tourguide, Selda Akyigit. She spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable about Ephesus and its story. We visited the Turkman carpet shop at the end of the tour and, of... More

This tour experience far surpassed any of the excursions we booked during our cruise to the Mediterranean. Miss Yesildag was extremely knowledgeable about all of the sights we had asked to see, most especially Ephesus. Her English was perfect and her leadership placed us at all the sights before the mass of bus tours from the cruise ships were able... More

From the start, this tour company was quick in responding to any inquiries we had prior to booking. I booked with this company on the recommendation of a friend and I was not disappointed. Our tour guide, Gurkan was waiting for us when our ship docked at Kusudasi. We rode in a Mercedes minivan for a 30 minute drive to... More

Private Ephesus Tours divided our 24 cruise passengers into two groups...each group of 12 with an informative guide. Each group rode in a modern, comfortable bus. Our trip to the Virgin Mary's home was interesting, but the tour of Ephesus was fascinating and very memorable. Fortunately our tour contact suggested we also visit the Terrace Homes, another great experience. Our... More

My husband and I did a private tour of Ephesus with Goncha. She was such a sweet, caring, and intelligent girl and we learned so much from her! Our day was very enjoyable. We were picked up from our hotel in Izmir in a very nice van by Goncha and our driver, Sky High (his nickname), and transported all the... More

Ephesus - the city established in 10 BC is a must visit for anyone having an interest in history. What is amazing is the way one can almost walk through the streets of the city and imagine how the city was organised in those time by seeing the ruins on both sides. The site is surprisingly easy to access from... More

This was an attraction I almost passed on, but my flight attendant recommended it. I am so glad I went! The tour of the ruins was quite spectacular and extensive, with a re-enactment of the gladiators at the end of the tour. The ruins were up-close, not roped off, and you could actually touch them!!! I was especially enamored with... More

Visited as part of our Adriatic & Aegean cruise. Docked in Kusadasi and hired a cab to take us to Ephesus. This provided a short driving tour of the area around the Ephesus site. The stroll through the site is impressive and can be done on a self guied basis. Buy one of the books that descibes the site as... More

These are the most spectacular ruins that we saw when visiting Turkey. If you visit the country and have limited time, these are the ruins that you should visit. There is a lot to see at these ruins and you should allow several hours. We thought that the entrance was awesome, however there were much better sights as we walked... More
