Amazing tour with Umut - This was an incredible experience! Our guide, Umut was extremely knowledgeable and taught us so much about the Turkish culture and the history. He patiently walked with us up and around and educated us along the way. Highlight of our time in Ephesus, for sure.

Ephesus Shore Excursion - We came Kusadasi last month with cruise just to see Ephesus and we absolutely fall in love with Ephesus! Great history and marvelous architecture. We also visited the Temple of Artemis, the House of the Virgin Mary and St. John Basilica. It was magical! Our tour guide was Baris Tabak, he was very kind and helpful. We had great time thanks to Turkey Tours Company.
