Ephesus and Mary’s House Come to Life - Our tour with Savas was terrific. He was prompt, efficient, knowledgeable, friendly and engaging. He is clearly well versed in the history and lore of the region, and helped bring both Ephesus and Mary’s House to life, with anecdotes and references to historical documentation, without being overly detailed. We would definitely recommend this company.

Excellent private Ephesus tour with Özgur - This was one of the most enjoyable tours I have ever been on. Aside from the spectacular site and historical importance of Ephesus itself, the attention and professionalism of our tour guide, Özgur Dalkilic, in addition to his expertise and excellent demeanor, made it all the more enjoyable. He was friendly, funny, patient and was especially careful and kind to my 83-year old father, going well above and beyond to ensure his comfort at all times. His explanations and careful attention to interesting details throughout the tour, all while helping maneuver the tricky streets of Ephesus for my father’s wheelchair, ensured a meaningful, personalized and familiar experience. In addition, our driver was equally kind and helpful, also taking extra care with my father. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, and cannot say enough good things about Özgur and the excellence of the experience we shared with him overall. I look forward to booking more tours with this agency in the future!

Excellent English Speaking Tour! - What an excellent tour we had! Ertunga was able to Make Efes, the Virgin Mary house, and a few additional stops really come to life. He was able to help us understand the historical as well as biblical background of these places in great detail, and he answered all of our many, many questions. We really appreciated the time he have us at each location as well, we never felt rushed and he even encouraged us to see some additional sites we would likely not have explored on our own. Given that we toured in July 2020, health and safety was very important to us re Covid and Ertunga made sure we were comfortable and safe they entire time. Thank you, Ertunga, for a great tour!

Living History - We are a family of 7 with children from ages 13 to 2 years old. Our guide Maria kept us engaged and interested for the whole tour and pointed out many things we could not have known apart from a guide. A baby backpack was the best way to experience this tour as we could keep pace and visit the places that a stroller couldn't go. The highlight for the children was the section of residential houses. Well worth the extra entrance fee. It gave more of a picture of how some people lived...at least the very wealthy. Reading up on some history before gave the older kids some categories to put the new information in and our guide had lots of extra historical tidbits when we dug deeper.
