        Nice trip
        Ephesus is amazing!! So much ruins to see! The explanations from guide were superb. However, the tour was unorganised. Firstly, it was predicted to rain at the end of the morning and instead of going directly to site, we stopped at a shop. Unfortunately, when we arrived to Ephesus it started raining, the tour was bit in a rush and the guide couldn’t manage properly the group as people were stoping a lot to buy things and the rest of the group stayed waiting. Overall, the trip was fine, the guide was professional and affable! The tour should be more around Ephesus and not so much about shops.

        Good trip
        The transportation from our hotel was assured. The tour on Hierapolis and Pamukkale was really good as the guide could give detailed and precise information during 1h30. The free time in the site was not enough for us (1h30) as well as the lunch time (35min) because in the end we were transported to a shop. Great trip in overall.

        Amazing... left us speechless!
        It was an amazing tour! Once in a lifetime! We had the most amazing tour guide, Alperen. I have never met anyone with so much culture, history and general knowledge. His love for the country shines through everything he does and made us love the country even more! The Turkish Delight stop was a perfect and sweet way to end off our amazing day! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I would highly recommend this tour, especially if you have the privilage of having Alperen as your tour guide!

        Tour to Ephesus and the house of Virgin Mary
        The places are incredible, they have some amazing views. Our guide Erman was really informed about everything, and shared with us lots of information of these historic places. He was also very friendly to the group.

        Did a tour with Erman. Saw all of Ephesus. He was very personable and knowledgeable about the history of the city. He was able to answer all our questions. I would recommend the same tour and Erman to everybody who visits.

        Beautiful city with a wonderful guide (Erman)
        You absolutely must see Ephesus if you have even a vague interest in history - it’s a beautiful and well-preserved city with so much rich history. I have to call out our tour guide Erman - he was super knowledgeable, answered all our esoteric questions and made us feel so so welcome. He also provided us with tons of recommendations on what to do in Izmir (he was raised there). I would recommend any guide that he leads

        Take the tour!
        It was such a pleasure to visit this site with Alperen. He was very informative of Turkey and Pamukkale! He has the sweetest smile and always willing to answer questions. When I am to return to Turkey I would be sure to ask him for recommendations and take more tours with him. I highly recommend this tour to others! It was the right amount of time with the group and time to explore ourselves.

        We had a great experience with Erman as our guide for the Pamukkale tour! He’s super knowledgeable about the history of the place and really brought it to life for us. He answered all our questions patiently and made sure we saw some amazing spots. It felt like a well thought out and enjoyable day highly recommend Erman if you’re visiting Pamukkale!

        Ephesus and Mother Mary House
        Our guide, Mr. Alperen Ugur, ran the tour for the day really well. His level of historical knowledge is really deep, yet he is able to bring it to visitors with the right amount of detail. Picked up a lot on the history of Ephesus and the Mother Mary House. Through his narration of the Ephesus history, is was coming alive for us. Really enjoyed the day with Mr. Alperen.

        Pamukkale Day Trip
        Our tour guide, Mr. Erman Uslu, friendly and knowledgeable. He coordinated the trip very well and provides the right amount of information to learn and enjoy. A helpful individual too, he helped us organize another tour with his company when we could not book through the internet site. Easy going, provides sufficient time to explore on our own time. Great experience with Mr. Uslu.

      This is a very worthwhile and fun day trip to Asklepion, the ancient Roman healing and wellness center, and the Pergamon Ancient City. Our guide, Ezgi, was so very knowledgeable and friendly, and really made what we were seeing meaningful beyond just the striking beauty of it all. We rode in a comfortable van, had a great driver, and even turned around after 30 miles on the road back home to grab the credit card I left behind at our delicious lunch spot. That was 100% my bad, and Ezgi and our driver are just that awesome. All in all, a great day trip to see some fascinating antiquity.

      The tour has met my expectations, punctual, the itinerary offered was the one we have done, the lunch extraordinary, comfortable and impeccable transportation, the highlight of this tour has been the guide Erman and the driver (sorry for not being able to remember the name), both in kind extremes. Erman is very accessible, helping all the time, very pleasant to deal with, with complete command of Spanish and with a lot of historical knowledge. I highly recommend it.

      Our tourguide was Erman Uslu. He sent us a reminder the previous day, and he was very punctual on arrival.
      We got to know a wonderful young man and a very professional guide in one peron.
      He was nice, polite and patient, but he was also very flexible, discussing the programs with us.
      But we want to emphasise his professionalism. He told us funny and sad mythological stories, which we enjoyed greatly, and at the same time he had an amazingly wide view on ancient history.
      We are glad and lucky that we could have him.

      As a couple with our English speaking guide Alperem we spent a full day visiting Asclepius and Pergamon. Our guide described the lives of the patients in Asclepius very vividly, he made us experience a day in this medical center through his precise descriptions, Pergamon is impressively reconstructed. Transport in the comfortable bus and a very decent lunch were well organized.

      This is a very special city with an important history as part of ancient times. These types of trips are worth the Tour to learn and understand every detail of what you are visiting.
      This Tour made the tour particularly special, due to the dedication of the guide Erman, who is very approachable, explains in great detail and is passionate about his work.
      He also knows the history of the region and provides context to what we are visiting. We took the Tour in Spanish and he can speak all languages without difficulties.

      It is a totally recommendable tour for anyone who wants a different and more detailed experience of activity.

      The trip out to Pergamon with Erman as the guide was truly a fantastic experience. This was my fourth Greco-Roman ruins in just as many days, and I was still very much blown away. It's a little difficult to get to and way up in a hill, but it was stunning. The theater is steep and intimidating but worth climbing. The gondola to get to the site is a little extra, but worth it. Erman was knowledgeable and funny, and kept it engaging. 10 out of 10 would do again.
