Highly recommended - We had used this company ten years ago and were impressed. We booked for a return visit to Ephesus with our son and were not disappointed. We were met by Emre and his driver from the cruise port on time and taken to the comfortable air conditioned mini bus. Emre was very knowledgable and gave us lots of information, he was the perfect guide giving us opportunities to look,ask questions and take photographs. He always found shade for us to stand/sit whilst he gave us information. I can’t recommend this company highly enough.

Trip to Ephesus - I had a private tour with Selenay as my guide. She comes from a family that has been taking tourists out for years. She knows what’s important along with a friendly demeanor at all times.

Skip the cruise ship's shore excursion and do this instead!!! - Can't say enough good things about this experience. Communication was excellent and timely. The Mercedes minivan, just for the two of us, was pristine and comfortable. We had a driver AND guide; both extremely professional. Our guide, Alex, was incredible. His knowledge of the local area, its history, and Ephesus is vast and really allowed us to fully appreciate the destination. I would definitely include the terrace houses on your visit to Ephesus and the museum at Selcuk has both incredible Artemis statues from the nearby ruins of Artemis' Temple as well as many significant artifacts from Ephesus. We stopped for a lovely lunch for typical Turkish food. My husband bought a beautiful leather jacket at a low stress, high quality leather outlet. There is no pressure to shop anywhere but if you are interested in ceramics, leather, or rugs, Alex will take you to authentic and high quality locations. Especially if you have never been to Turkey before, I would highly recommend Alex and Ephesus Shuttle.

Ephesus, exactly the tour we wanted - Excellent tour with guide Mehmet Orkun. We booked a small group tour, there were only 4 in a nice size transport van. Ephesus and Terraces only, as requested, with quick stop at Artemis temple remaining column. This is exactly the tour we wanted!! No extra stops. Orkun was very accommodating, and helpful with suggestions, shopping/eating recommendations. Tour company was very prompt in answering all my many questions. Highly recommend this company and especially guide Orkun..

Ephesus is incredible - A fabulous tour from beginning to end. Ozzy was a great guide. We were picked up from the Cruise Port and drove about 20 minutes through lovely country side to Ephesus. Wow,! What an incredible place. We booked a private tour and Ozzy was so knowledgeable. We had a wonderful afternoon.
