St. Paul In Ephesus:a Journey Into Early Christianity With Expert

Excellent experience and very good service!

Billan was a very enthusiastic and informative guide. He pointed out some interesting facts about Ephesus and the other historical sites in the area. I would highly recommend him

This was an amazing tour, our guide Gull was amazing and very knowledgeable. Emre who coordinated everything was great to work with. Overall a great trip thanks to Gezginol!!!

One of the most beautiful, educational, and transformative experiences of my life. Seeing history unfold before my eyes has changed the way I see things…

The Gezginol tourism company did an excellent job. Their general manager, Ozan, demonstrated outstanding knowledge and experience in the tourism business. I want to highlight our guide, Mes, who, with over 15 years of experience, took us on a journey through time and context in each place we visited, in addition to his excellent character and kindness throughout the trip. Emre, the tour coordinator, prepared everything in advance flawlessly, making our trip very comfortable. I 100% recommend Gezginol for your best tourist experience in Turkey!

Great experience, would recommend! The ruins come alive with the tour guide and the immersive museum. I was struck by the use of toilets by Roman men! The company was resourceful and punctual, and the guide was knowledgeable. The guide could have lowed down a bit (walking and explanations).

Our guide,Bilal, arrived at the hotel twenty minutes early. Before setting out, they went over what we would be seeing and kept the conversation interactive the whole time. There were so many meaningful, fact-based historical insights shared along the way, which made it a wonderful learning experience. They were also great with our kids, making sure we had breaks between every stop.

Oran Sayin was an excellent tour guide. We appreciated his knowledge, friendliness and flexibility. We highly recommend!

Experiencia fantastic agency and guide they look after us in many ways explain hotel every thing the agency was in charge

It was a very good experience for our family. Kenan is a very good guide, he's friendly and has a really good sense of humor. We really enjoyed our trip to Turkey, a beautiful nation!

Visiting Turkey with Gezginol was a dream come true, and honestly, the trip of a lifetime. The itinerary and hotel selections were straight out of heaven! Managing a group of 200 people is no easy task, but the agency went above and beyond, handling every detail and emergency with total professionalism. Fue una experiencia inigualable. Uma experiência maravilhosa que guardarei para sempre no coração! A massive shoutout to our guide, Kenan Can, who was incredibly attentive, thorough, and kept us safe and happy the whole time. Do not hesitate, come to Turkey with this agency!

Everything was good. Enjoyed the trip very much. The guide Kenan was amazing

We had a lovely time with Bilal! He is like an open book, full of knowledge and very passionate to share it. He adapted the tour based on our needs as my father (84 years old) was with us. 100% recomended

Amazing experience, professional, very good. Bilal love his job and you can understand when speak about history and Architecture of his country. Very recommend!!

AMAZING tour. We did the whole 7 churches ciecuit with them and it has been a life changing experience. I’ve visited over 25 countries and never had such knowlegable and pacient guides. They are not just guides, they are literally archeologist. Rosita/Gül took care of our group in an excepcional way, we did a lot of long traveling and she was so mindful of little details like frequent toilets and good jokes. She made us feel so welcome and gave us so many insights about the history and culture of Turkiye, islam and churches 🫶🏼 VIVA ROSITA

This tour was great. It combined the fabulosity of ancient Ephesus with some sites of particular importance and interest to Christians. Our guide, Gokhan, was very knowledgeable in all aspects. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Loved the guide and the one on one tour of Ephesus. He was informative and personable and answered our questions.

This is the second time we've worked with this company. As frequent travelers, being able to trust the company you travel with is essential. I must commend the professionalism of every member of the team. They take excellent care of us with great warmth. The guides are professionals and go out of their way to make our trip comfortable, safe, and enjoyable. If I were to return to Turkey again, I would definitely contact them at

They went beyond and above with everything we needed and wanted. The places they chose for us to stay, the timing, food, everything was just amazing. Our guide, Sergei, really knows what he's talking about, he'd be the kindest and most insightful about everything, and even honest when he wasn't sure about stuff. Everybody were sooo easy going when we had special needs, like pregnancy or kids which was the case in our fam (both!!!) just awesome. Can't recommend them enough

Lovely time!!! Would absolutely recommend!!! Our guide, Gül, is very knowledgeable and fabulous!! Would absolutely book with this company and with our guide again!!!!

We had a excelent guide Gul, she was an archeologist with a lot of historical and cultural knowlwdge

Fantastic tour! The tour guide Gul was amazing and full of rich archeological details. Vamos Rosita!!!

Thank you Gül (our guide) for your kindness and happiness. It was a great great tour.

We had the most amazing experience in Ephesus with Ismail. We were so excited about taking a biblically based tour about St Paul in Ancient Ephesus. We were told we would have a knowledgeable guide. However, “knowledgeable” did not accurately describe our guide, Ismail. This young man has a PHD in Early Christianity!!! Yes. A PHD! He quoted scripture by chapter and verse all day long! So impressive. So kind and respectful. We learned so much! It was a challenging tour physically for the four of us as our ages ranged from 66-76. But Ismail was very patient and sensitive to our limitations and our pace. It was one of the most memorable days of my life. To walk on the same road that Paul walked on in ancient Ephesus, while listening to an expert share facts and insights about his life….it was surreal. I just can’t express the magnitude of the entire experience. Ismail. Remember this name if you ever have an opportunity to have this experience. We also visited what is believed to be the last home of Mary, mother of Jesus. There are just no words to express thr fullness of such an experience..

Bilal is single-handedly best guide I have ever had! His breadth of knowledge about cultures, history, languages and how they all relate and converge was fascinating! I would 100% recommend!

Bilal was our guide-absolutely the best experience I have ever had on a guided trip!! He is beyond knowledgeable! His wealth of knowledge about culture, history, religion and how these all converge was absolutely fascinating!!! I would 100% recommend!!!

Our guide Ozzy was very personable and knowledgeable. He not only showed us all the sites, but gave us great insight on the layers of history from the Romans to present day Turkey. I highly recommend anyone in town for a day while on a cruise or visiting! Ask for Ozzy, the best

very good, we like the guide very much

Our experience was wonderful! Very tailored to us and the Guide was so knowledgeable and friendly. Learned a lot and really enjoyed our day!!

Spectacular tour with Ozzie as our guide. He was a genius at his craft. Showed us so many little details that one would never get in a conventional tour. He answered every question in great detail. Highlight of our entire trip. Phenomenal job !!!!!!

Dr. İsmail Gündüz was incredible! We had a private tour of ancient Ephesus. Complete with traditional Turkish Lunch. Highly recommend!

Tijen was Amazing!! Great tour! Very knowledgeable!! Spoke clear English and very personable! Lunch was delicious too! Tijen was very accommodating! Learned a lot about Turkish culture and biblical history of Turkey

We had the most amazing experience on this tour. Our tour guide Ozan Sayin, was phenomenal. He knew so much historical information about Ephesus and Kusadasi. 6 of us rode in a super comfortable van and we had access to the agency’s skip the line passes so we didn’t have to stand in line for tickets into Ephesus or the House of the Virgin Mary. We went to a great place to see how they make Turkish rugs. Shortly after that we had a Turkish meal and everything was wonderful. We had such a great day with Ozan. He was personable, helpful, knowledgeable, funny, kind and just amazing. Our driver, Jenk was terrific too. Just a great experience anll anround and Ozan and this tour company made it a day we will never forget. I couldn’t recommend them more!

We booked directly with the tour operator his name was Ozan Gunduzalp who organized it. He was very responsive with all the questions we had and told us the itinerary and cost up front. As soon as we came out of the cruise terminal we were back by Ozan Sayin the tour guide. We also had a separate driver while ozan gave us all the information.Ozan provide us with a lot of history and knowledge on the tour we really enjoyed it.

We booked directly with Ozan Gunduzalp…he immediately wrote me on what’s app and sent me a list of the entire itinerary …Our tour operator was amazingly informative, personable, and great. His name was… Ozan Sayin and I would highly recommend him on another tour . Everything of our tour was smooth, very informative, enlightening and I am sure to spread the word on booking with this company again !! We work for American Airlines and many of us travel … definitely will share this information with all of them !

We absolutely LOVED this tour Ozan Sayin, our tour guide. He was beyond knowledgeable about history and you feel the love for his country through every stop we made. Best tour I have ever had!!

What an amazing tour! Our tour guide Bilal was very knowledgeable. I appreciated the Ephesus tour and his biblical knowledge.

Bilal did an excellent job, and provided us with so much valuable information. Strongly recommend taking this tour.

It was an excellent guided tour in every respect. Our guide, Bilal, proved to be attentive and knowledgeable. He made sure we were in the best possible conditions to appreciate the visit, not only by telling us the history, but also by allowing us to listen to it at the right spots, where the shade made it possible to enjoy a pleasant stay. Bilal also used the Bible to show us the references to the city of Ephesus and the related events. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.

We had the best experience with Bahar!!! She was very informative and knowledgeable. Bahar was so friendly and went above and beyond giving us the full Turkish experience. Thank you, Bahar! Highly recommended!!

Davut was a FANTASTIC guide!! We traveled as a family of 4 (parents + twins, aged 8). We were on a cruise and he met us at the Starbucks just outside the port. He was so accommodating, kind, and patient with kids who were more interested in the local cats than the information he was providing. Davut was so knowledgeable and fun to talk to. I’d love to go on any tour with him! Lunch was delicious and the setting was so peaceful. Highly recommend!!

Mithat was very very good, knowledgeable, nice and I would highly recommend him!!!

The tour guide was great She was very informative and had a good disposition. She was patient and courteous and answered all the questions. I will recommend her to other friends.

We booked the St. Paul in Ephesus: A Journey into Early Christianity with Ozzy, and it was excellent from start to finish. The tour was originally set to start from Kuşadası, but Ozzy kindly adjusted the schedule to pick us up from our hotel the next morning, as we arrived late from Denizli the night before. He showed us the key sites of Ephesus, the Temple of Artemis, and St. John’s Basilica, sharing insightful historical details along the way. His flexibility, smooth logistics, and comfortable Tesla made the trip stress-free and enjoyable. Highly recommend Ozzy for anyone wanting a knowledgeable and accommodating guide.

We met Ozan through a recommendation from a guide in Istanbul my brother had recently toured with and we’re so glad we did. From the moment we stepped into the clean, air-conditioned minibus, we knew we were in good hands. Ozan’s deep knowledge of Turkish and Greek history brought every site to life. He introduced us to a family of traditional pottery makers, government-supported carpet weavers working with silk, wool, and bamboo, and shared fascinating stories behind national monuments of Turkey. This wasn’t just a tour — it was a cultural experience. I highly recommend touring with Ozan. Wishing you all the best, my friend!

This tour was a highlight of our trip! Walking through Ephesus with a knowledgeable guide who brought St. Paul’s story to life was truly unforgettable. The insights into early Christianity, the ruins, and the personal touches made this experience both spiritual and educational. Highly recommended for anyone interested in history, religion, or simply an unforgettable day.

“An unforgettable journey through the footsteps of St. Paul! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and made the ancient world come alive. Highly recommended for history and faith lovers alike.”

Fue una experiencia maravillosa. Los guías estuvieron siempre a disposición y muy preparados para la tarea. El coordinador general ha estado en cada detalle, incluso asesorándonos con lugares o asistencias que no estaban incluidas de antemano. Sinceramente, para recomendarlos sin duda!

He viajado por varias partes del mundo pero nunca había recibido un servicio tan espectacular como el que me ofreció esta agencia de turismo. Lo recomiendo ampliamente
