An unforgettable trip

We were on holiday in Izmir and we really wanted to visit Ephesus. Chose this tour and didn't regret it. It's been a great ride. Wonderful guide, friendly, talking very interestingly about the history of Ephesus, the house of the Virgin Mary. We were picked up from the hotel, showed everything and talked about a lot. The tour also includes lunch. It's really good food. I highly recommend this company.

A Perfect Experience in Türkiye

It was an incredible experience from the moment we stepped off our Azamara ship at the Cesme port. Our private guide and driver were there waiting for us upon our arrival and we were taken in style in our very comfortable air-conditioned Mercedes van. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the ruins and religious sites. He was also very accommodating as we asked to go to extra shops including pottery and leather. For lunch we had an amazing Türkiye lunch with lots of farm fresh veggies, dips, warm bread and grilled beef and chicken skewers. The fresh watermelon at the end was perfect. I would recommend this tour to anyone thinking about a historic trip to Ephesus from the cruise port of Cesme. It's so worth the drive!!
