Private Tour In Ephesus And Traditional Turkish Bath From Port

Daruk ( I believe that was the gentleman's name) was very warm and accommodating your guide. He was also up to speed in what was happening in the area. We were originally going to go to Mary last house first, but he checked the traffic and saw that there was a long line so we went to Ephasis first and by the time we got to Mary's we were able to drive straight in. You might be able to find cheaper but I don't you would find better or easier, especially since their office was right at the shop debarkation spot

Burak is an amazing guide! We had a perfect trip him. I RECOMMEND BURAK!

Âmzing đây ưith burak recoommend him al lot thank youu

Burak He was great! Part of The experience was great because of him.

Seyhan our guide was an encyclopedia of knowledge. He also had amazing energy and consideration. He shared so much about the culture in Turkey. We felt comfortable as soon as we met him. We were lost trying to find him off the ship, but he came to us. I would highly recommend this to anyone. My masseuse July at the spa was amazing and so considerate. We felt like we were special clients with the way the whole experience took place. Thank you for our best day of the cruise. Sincerely, Dennis and Lou Seyhan needs raise!!!!

My husband and I did this tour with B. She is very personable and knowledgeable of the culture and history. We went to emphasis where she talked about the history there and then also showed us pictures of what it did look like. Lots of interesting things to see there.B took a lot of time with us to make sure that we knew the authentic cultural art area where particular goods such as rugs, pottery, and leather are made. She introduced us to wonderful types of no foods and drinks from the area. We would definitely recommend this tour.

First, Deniz was a delightful tour guide and unbelievably knowledgeable! She was so accommodating and made sure we had a truly unforgettable experience. The history of Ephesus and rug weaving was amazing but the Turkish bath was such fun and amazing!! We (4 friends) would recommend to everyone.

What an amazing tour of the Kusadasi area!! We met with local artisans, had a thorough tour of Ephesus, and a beautiful outdoor farm-to-table lunch. What beautiful memories we made on this trip. Our guide was Hakan Senyen and he shared his love of culture.

Burak was an informative young man. He told us things we had not read about so it was well worth the trip.

Burak was an excellent tour guide he was very well knowledgeable about the area and the history. He was able to answer any question thrown at him. He was a very pleasant young man:) I would recommend him for any tour.

Burak is very friendly and knowledgeable.

Burak was an exceptional guide. His English was on point. His knowledge of the area and his explanation of this beautiful place was interesting and makes me want to come back! I love it when I tour and learn about the places I visit. He answered every question and I can tell he loves his career. Thank you for a wonderful experience. -Dorothy Hinkamp

Burak was great and he really knew the history of Ephesus and surrounding areas. Definitely would use him again because of his kindness and respect for all.

Burek was excellent. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and professional.

Ephesus was unbelievable! We had such a good time with Burak! We recommend him a lot!

We had a perfect day with guide Burak he is so kind and punctual and knowledgeable

Amazing experience with guide burak he is the best"!

Burak was a nice guide that took great care of us. Enjoyed our day.

Burak was very nice, he’s very enthusiastic and explained everything very good. He’s a very nice person in general and a very good guide. I would recommend him a 100% to be my guide again.

We had a great guided tour with Burak to Ephesus and the home of Virgin Mary.

Excellent experience great guide named Burak he was very informative and personable highly recommend him as a guide !

Burak was an excellent guide who took the time to explain the important aspects of each of the sites we visited. We would not have had as good an experience without a guided tour.

Excellent guide who made the visit very informative and enjoyable

Communication was great with the company. We were paired with an AMAZING guide and driver — Mel. She was warm, so informed and truly shared her love of her country with us. We knew this. Before hand, but tickets to Ephesus and the spa were extra. 40 Euro for Ephesus and our scrub and bubbles was 55 Euro at the spa, more than I had read other places. I had read about forced carpet demonstrations, jewelry shopping etc. Mel took us to a Turkish delights tasting and it was perfect. We enjoyed the best baklava I’ve ever tasted and WANTED to buy some to share with family back home. She also took us to a school of weaving where we enjoyed a truly wonderful demonstration and were treated like favored guests. We didn’t buy anything and they were very respectful. Lunch was next to the weaving school and was perfect — we ate outside under olive trees. It was honestly an amazing day with such a mix of experiences. I would highly recommend.

Mel was amazing. So welcoming. Extremely knowledgeable. By the end of the day we felt like friends. Everything was so seamless and it made Turkey such a wonderful experience for us.

Everything was great except it should have been clearer for the extra costs

It was over all very good. The guide was friendly and very informative

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an absolutely incredible day in Turkey with our guide, Onur. He was fantastic from start to finish and made the entire experience interesting, relaxed, and a lot of fun. We started at Ephesus, where Onur gave us a great tour and brought the history of the ancient city to life. We learned so much without ever feeling like we were sitting through a history lesson. From there, we visited the Temple of Artemis before heading for an amazing Turkish lunch. There was an unbelievable amount of food, far more than we could possibly eat, and everything was delicious. One of our favourite parts was visiting a local market where we sampled olive oils, baklava, Turkish delights, and other local specialties. It was quaint, authentic, and another chance to learn more about Turkish culture. We also visited a rug store and watched how traditional Turkish rugs are made. Seeing the craftsmanship firsthand and learning how much time can go into making a single rug was pretty incredible. We finished the day with our first-ever Turkish bath, which was an experience in itself. After trying one, I’m pretty sure I could get used to having a Turkish bath every day. Definitely one job I wouldn’t mind having someone else do for me! It was a full day, but never felt rushed. We saw and experienced so much, and Onur was knowledgeable, personable, and a great guide throughout the entire day. If you’re visiting this part of Turkey and want to experience Ephesus along with some great food, culture, and truly memorable local experiences, I would absolutely recommend Onur. An epic day and one we’ll remember for a long time.

Seyhan was extremely knowledgeable and very pleasant. Best tour of our trip

The best tour we have had Seyhan was amazing with his time management gave us plenty off time to enjoy all the places highly recommend

We had a wonderful experience. Queen B. Had a wealth of knowledge to share and her energy and passion for her city was evident. Would definitely take this tour again!

Queen B was so knowledgeable of the country and provided great information throughout the tour.

From the moment Mel met us at the Kusadasi port, we knew we were in great hands. What I loved immediately was that she allowed us to be at choice with how we wanted our day to go. It never felt rushed or like we were being shuffled through a standard tour. It felt like our day, and Mel was there to make it amazing. Our driver was also excellent. We felt completely safe and taken care of all day, and he was always right there to pick us up when we were ready to move on to our next stop. We started at a wonderful shop where we were welcomed with apple and pomegranate Turkish tea, which Mel explained is part of the Turkish tradition of hospitality. We sampled baklava, Turkish delight, olive oil and other traditional treats and, of course, purchased a few things because everything was so yummy! From there, we headed to Ephesus (€40 entry) to explore the ancient city. One of the immediate perks of being with Mel was being able to skip the line and get ahead of the crowds. But the best part was experiencing Ephesus with someone who KNOWS her history. Mel shared so many fascinating facts and stories along the way, and she has a way of explaining things that keeps you completely engaged. She even mixed in some of the old myths and legends, which made it that much more fun. After Ephesus, we enjoyed the most delicious Turkish lunch together. Mel even prepared our salad dressing right at the table while teaching us about Turkish food, ingredients and the culture around eating and gathering. So fun! And the food was absolutely delicious. We also got to see a demonstration of how traditional Turkish rugs are made, and WOW. The craftsmanship, time and detail that goes into creating them is incredible. It gave us such an appreciation for the art. We also stopped at a leather store and had fun looking at some really unique designs. And then Mel saved the PERFECT experience for last: a traditional Turkish bath at a Hammam. What an incredible way to end the day! After hours of exploring, eating, learning and taking everything in, being able to relax and experience a Hammam before heading back to our cruise ship was perfection. Mel made our day in Turkey feel personal, fun, educational and completely taken care of from beginning to end. We laughed, learned so much, ate well, experienced the culture and left feeling like we got to experience so much more than we ever would have on a typical tour. If you’re planning to explore any part of beautiful Turkey, Mel is absolutely who you want as your guide. We’re already talking about coming back, and when we do, we will have Mel showing us more of this beautiful country!

This was my first time in Turkey, and Mel made my experience absolutely amazing! She was knowledgeable, energetic, funny, and incredibly patient. You could tell immediately that she truly loves what she does, and her passion made the experience even more enjoyable. The food, the people, and especially the Turkish bath were all 10/10! By the end of the day, Mel and I had gone from tour guide and traveler to feeling like the best of friends. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or a better person to show me Turkey for the first time. Highly recommend Mel!

Booking Fusun was the best thing we did in Kusadasi. We found each other at the pier with ease, the air conditioned van hit the mark with ease of travel to Ephesus. (Her knowledge of the history of the area was second to none) The lunch was an A+. The Turkish baths was a hit with us. Do not book a trip with your cruise line - book with a local like Fusun. You will get a much better personalized experience at a fraction of the cost.

We enjoyed a great day with Seyhan our tour operator! He was so awesome and informative!

It was well organized and comfortable. My tour guide Ahu was so sweet, accommodating, and knowledgeable. She catered the tour for our wants. It was a comfortable ride with a great driver. I highly recommend this tour with her.

Our guide Seyhan was fabulous. We had the best day while Seyhan took care of every detail. He was knowledgeable, thoughtful and paid meticulous attention to the details of the day. After the ruins, Seyhan took us to the best shops, a delicious lunch and a fabulous Turkish bath and massage. He made the day one of the best of our trip.

We had a great day today with Bither (Queen B). She was extremely knowledgeable and made sure we enjoyed our day, learned a ton, and got great pictures for us. Highly recommend!

Incredible experience. Our guide Onur was extremely kind and helpful, as was the driver. I did the tour with my mom, who has mobility issues, but it wasn't a problem because I requested a wheelchair, which they provided. Lunch was delicious and varied, and the hammam experience was unforgettable. I recommend Onur and the private tour to anyone wanting to visit Ephesus, especially if arriving by cruise ship.
