We gave the crowds at Ephesus a miss and spent the day with a master story teller exploring the cities of Priene, Miletus and the marvellous temple at Didyma. Alperen our guide made the day seem effortless starting with a full conquest and reconquest history of the region then revealing at each stop wonderful hidden gems. All in perfect english (except when translating the ancient Greek!). Mustapha our driver was a real pro too. Way beyond my already high expectations.
Thank you for such a wonderful review. We are delighted that Alperen’s storytelling brought the history of Priene, Miletus, and Didyma to life and helped you discover the character and hidden details of each site. We are also glad that our driver made the journey smooth and comfortable. Knowing the day exceeded your expectations means a great deal to us. We look forward to seeing you again with Gezenthi Travel Agency!
The Pryene, Miletus and Didyma tour was phenomenal. The experience was just as good if not better than Ephesus and much quieter. Our tour guide Elcin was so knowledgeable and the lunch was wonderful.
Thank you very much for your kind review. We are delighted to hear that you had such a memorable experience on the Priene, Miletus and Didyma tour and that you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere, informative guidance, and lunch service. Gezenthi Travel Agency truly appreciates your feedback and hopes to welcome you again for another wonderful journey in the future.
Erman Uslu once again guided us to the most important destinations of the ancient world, always with care and courtesy. My wife and I were delighted with this trip. Definitely one of the best of our lives.

Nos honra saber lo especial que fue este viaje para ustedes y su pareja, y que lo consideran una de las experiencias más hermosas de sus vidas. ¡Esperamos darles la bienvenida de nuevo! -Agencia de viajes Gezenthi
Alperen Ugur was a terrific guide. Knowledgeable, friendly, and polite. The sites were all fascinating. We were practically the only ones there so had no problem taking pictures without other tourists in the shots. Walking around is harder since there aren’t many groomed paths to use. But all of that is worth it to see these places.
Thank you for your review! We're glad to hear that Alperen made your tour enjoyable with his knowledge, friendliness, and professionalism. It’s great that you had the opportunity to explore the sites without crowds, making for great photos! While the terrain can be a bit challenging, we’re happy to know that the experience was well worth it. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you on another tour soon!
