Excellent trip and guide. Driver was super safe and guide took into account my elderly mother was limited in her walking. We were able to see everything she wanted as this was my second trip to Ephesus. Viator guides are the best in the world in my opinion.

Reviews
Everything about our one day trip to ancient Ephesus was extraordinary. The company communicated with us in advance to secure and coordinate details. Selen was our guide and our driver was Abdul (I think.) Perfectly on time, very safe driver. Selen was extremely knowledgeable, yet open to new conversations and viewpoints. She expended extra effort on our behalf to help my wife who has trouble walking easily, to deal with a couple long lines. She also worked to help me see a part of ancient Ephesus that was currently closed. Everything about this experience was a 10 out of 10. Maybe even an 11!
Everything went very well. The pick up was on time and the guide was always very helpful.
Informative, concise, punctual; would highly recommend to anyone having a short amount of time to get to know the highlights of Selcuk.
Everything was very well thanks to olur guide and driver
Hakan is an amazing tour guide. Speaks english, spanish, french fluently and has an excellent articulation. Definitely worth the money
It was a wonderful and very personal tour. Our guide, Hakan, was amazing. He walked us around with thorough explanations of ruins and also present day Turkey.
Transportation, guide, all suggestions were great. We had such a great tour, delicious lunch also intersting visit to a ceramic workshop. 100% satisfied.
Such an amazing place. Full of history and art. Much bigger and interesting than my expectations. An unforgettable experience for me. Recommend touring by a guide nd visiting the house of vigin mary as well.
We had an incredible day visiting the ruins in Ephesus and the Virgin Mary’s house. Both sites are truly breathtaking and a treat for those who love history and landmarks of biblical significance. We also thoroughly enjoyed the context provided by our tour guide Hakan, who was highly experienced and knowledgeable and was able to communicate important facts about both sites to our family in both English and Spanish. Hakan was incredibly friendly and engaging and we highly recommend!!
We had an amazing day exploring the beautiful roman ruins of Ephesus and the house of Virgin Mary! A million thanks to our excellent tour guide Hakan, who provided commentary in both english AND spanish for our group!! Also Hakan was very comical and he was happy to answer all of our questions and teach us about Turkish culture! He picked us up right on time from the Izmir port and the car was very fancy and clean! We returned with plenty of time back to our cruise ship, after a stress-free enjoyable day! :) The ruins themselves were an impressive sight to behold! Loved every minute of this tour, so worth it if you’re in Izmir for a day!
The tour itself and the time spent with our tour guide certainly deserved five stars. We only give it three stars because of the piece of jewelry we bought outside of the Virgin Mary site. We realize now it is clearly a fake and ridiculously overpriced. It was the job of our tour guide to ensure that we were not taken advantage of. We were HIS responsibility. He guided us to the store and ensured us we were in good hands. We trusted him. The stone is known as Sultanate and is supposed to change color. It certainly changed color in the store. It has not changed color since we have left Turkey. I am heartbroken. And there is no recourse. Lesson learned.
Hakan is an excellent guide and very accommodating. Prompt, knowledgeable and entertaining. Would recommend him anytime!
Such a historical place to see. Our guide was excellent person, he gave us informations about the monuments,Celsus Library, GeatTheater, latrines. ıt is a must see place.
Most interesting site I have ever been. We had a guided tour. Thanks to hako he did a good job. Also upon our request he took us to the church of Virgin St John.
Very nice tour. We liked Ephesus very much. Amazing place. Aldı tempel of Artemis and house of Virgin Mary. Very interesting places to see. Our guide Hako like a close friend took god care of us during the day. Thanks a lot for everything
We were very pleased; our guide was attentive, helpful, and knowledgeable. We would love to see him again on other tours...
Very nice experience, the family enjoyed it a lot….🫶👍
I was very pleased, the car guide was very helpful, thank you for everything.
The service was very timely. They communicate with people days in advance via WhatsApp to organize the meeting location. Furthermore, they are always very punctual. They have clear strategies so that the tour is a little more favorable in terms of lines, views, and time. In addition, the price-to-product ratio is phenomenal. A private tour is offered where a perfectly Spanish-speaking guide accompanies you with the history, and furthermore, the vehicle is solely and exclusively for those who book the tour; I really did not expect it, and I felt that what was offered was very inexpensive for what it actually delivers—that is, it was very inexpensive for everything it offers.
All great. Our guide Hakan coordinated everything perfectly from before the trip. It is very close and friendly. He has given us a lot of information not only about the visits but also a lot more. We would definitely repeat and recommend this tour
Our experience was incredible, as our Hakan Guide explained to us in a very professional way what is related to the ruins of Ephesus and the house of The Virgin... I will definitely recommend it with our friends, who will come to visit this beautiful place.
Efes is a great place. It exceeded expectations. Our tour and guidance were very good. We had a fun, memorable day.
It was a very good and immersive experience, the guide was very friendly, attentive, respectful and taught us different facts and curiosities of the country and region, in addition to that he took us to wonderful places. Fully recommended is a unique experience.
Hakan is an excellent Guide that provides very useful explanations of each place. Very friendly and patient. That's definitely an amazing historic place.
We love this beauty. I have never been to such preserved ruins. Also thanks to our guide Hako for his advice and explanations.
It was an unforgettable epic tour; we were a family admiration; a journey to a true history, Roman times; a must-see.
Very good experience, awesome. Both the place and the guide. One of the most interesting places to visit. Recommended.
