Our tour was outstanding! We had a private tour with a VERY knowledgeable guide named Ozlem! She arrived on time to our hotel in a clean fresh car with a great driver and a nice big map! She explained in great detail where we were and where we were going - we loved the visual! Ephesus was amazing and she made it come alive for us! We had a wonderful lunch, visited the local museum to see the precious artifacts and had a great visit to a local coffee shop for more neighborhood ruins! It was fantastic! You must request her!

We had a great day with Hatice exploring Ephesus. She met us with a driver at the airport in Izmir. She was very personable right from the start. We instantly liked her and knew it would be a fun day. She was very organized, and great knowledge of all of the historical sites and wove in great stories of the local people, the local culture and life generally in the greater Izmir area. Her English is excellent and she wrapped up the day by taking us to a local place she goes with her family for lunch, which was excellent, and going to a coffee in town.
