Fantastic excursion!

The guide was phenomenal, so knowledgeable and so personable. She even knew where to take us to the best Turkish Delights afterward. She was so kind and this was outside of her job description to do that, it was by our request. The tour itself was amazing, she always knew where to take us, even when the crowds weren’t in particular places she would walk us to different areas and explain things that I felt no one else was getting. She gave us time and space to explore in between. We loved every minute of this tour.

Ephesus

Excellent tour, with 6 of us we were able to obtain the best from the guide Emre. He made sure we got ahead of the crowd and answered every question we posed. Tour of carpet factory wasn't on the original itinerary- interesting but too much soft sell

<p>beautiful place and a great tour. Had a great guide in Genghis who was extremely knowledgeable and factual. One down side was taking us to the rugs making at the end of the tour which was just a money making gimmick.</p>
