Our tour guide Eren is amazing. He gave us a lot and accurate information of every spot. He is really excellent doing his job. We noticed he loves doing it .Eren made our tour to Ephesus enjoyable and unforgettable. We recommend tours guided by Eren undoubetly . Thanks a lot
We had John as our guide and he was amazing. Very knowledgeable. We really enjoyed the town of Epehesus and the lunch was delicous
Excellent guide, very knowledgeable! Lunch was delicious. Could have skipped the rug factory, but no pressure to buy. Pleasurable experience and nice tour was only 4 people, so never a need to wait. Entrance fee for Ephesus now 40 euros.
Gokce was amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and learned a lot historically. We had a wonderful lunch in a beautiful garden. The rug demonstration was interesting. We highly recommend this tour.
Our guide Bihter was perfection! She greeted us in the parking lot at Ephesus and for the next four hours gave us her exclusive attention. She made everything interesting, fun, and funny. She had a great sense of humor but also really knew her stuff. The afternoon whizzed by (despite the searing heat). We learned more than just what the guidebooks and info signs tell you. And best of all, we got to know each other. We felt like we had made a new friend. Take this tour! So worth it!
This was an unforgettable experience! Seyhan was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive to every detail. He made our tour both fun and educational, with stories and insights that truly brought the destination to life. His passion for the place was contagious, and he went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a memorable time. Highly recommend!
Our tour guide was very knowledge person.We were wondering Virgin Mary's House.And it was incredible.We recommend it thank you a lot!
We want to show our appreciation to our tour guide, Luthfi, and the driver (sorry we forgot the name 😭) for their hospitality & knowledge in explaining the places. They also accommodated our additional request to stop at Mother Mary’s House. Other than the selling pitch, we found it’s interesting experience. Our suggestion for the future: they can share the itinerary & confirm with the guests beforehand. However, we recommend this trip for your exceptional experience!
The site was amazing and fascinating. Seyhan our guide was very knowledgeable and made the tour informative and interesting
We had such a good tour with Seyhan. He was so knowledgeable and really brought the history to life in a way that was easy to follow. He was very patient and even helped us to negotiate with the vendors we came across. Lunch was delicious and a very high quality. A definite must do!
We had a very fun Ephesus tour. My family and I were very pleased with this experience. Thank you for everything. Especially our guide Luis is a very experienced and entertaining person.
Bihter's guidance on the Ephesus tour was outstanding. Ephesus is an amazing place. We had a very nice lunch and all our requests were met. Thank you to Bihter for turning a visit into an unforgettable journey into the past.
Ephesus tour was amazing! So many ancient ruins and cool history. Must-see if you're into that kind of stuff!
We were welcomed very well and sent off very well. We thank the tour company for giving us this experience. They took very good care of us and we left very satisfied. Words are not enough to describe Ephesus, it has a magnificent history. You should definitely visit this place with a knowledgeable guide. We definitely recommend it, you will never regret it.
Gokhan was an outstanding guide during the Ephesus tour! His deep knowledge of the historical sites and charismatic storytelling brought the ancient city to life. With a perfect blend of humor and expertise, Gokhan made the tour both educational and entertaining. His passion for Ephesus and its history was evident, making the entire experience truly enjoyable. If you're looking for a top-notch guide, Gokhan is the one to ensure a memorable and informative journey through the past!
The Ephesus tour was really great! There are many old things to see, such as the grand theater and old buildings. Super interesting history experience. 👍
This tour exceeded our expectations. It ended up being a lovely private tour with our own driver and guide. Fusun, the guide, was fabulous and walked us all around Ephesus sharing its interesting history. She’s a fountain of knowledge. The van was very luxurious and they drove us past some of the other sites on the way back. They also offered to take us to local leather or carpet shops or the museum. We didn’t take up the offer but they were certainly keen to make the trip personalised to us which was lovely. Highly recommend.
Ephesus Tour is a great option for history and nature enthusiasts. Our guide Fusun was knowledgeable, the sites were impressive, and the price was right. Definitely recommend it!
Loved the tour! Bonus that an excellent authentic lunch was included. “Marel” was a knowledgeable tour guide. Very interesting piece of history.
This was my second time visiting Ephesus. My first visit was with a large tour group and felt rushed the entire tour. We had a great time and had the ability customize our tour. Our guide Fusun, was amazing! She was ver knowledgeable, and felt like a part of our group! We even got in great shopping. Highly recommend!!!
I thought I was just booking a ride to Ephesus because I was not interested in Mary's house or a carpet factory. What we got was an unexpected private van, and tour guide for just myself & my husband. Fatma was sweet and knowledgable and we had a great time. We made one extra stop at a gift shop, where we were introduced to Turkish coffee and purchased some gifts, but it was all fun and much more "our" type of excursion. Definitely recommend.
It was so beautiful, we all appreciate to our guide bihter, She was so friendly, helpful, thanks to her.
We needed a tour guide at the last minute and was able to book this the day before. We had an amazing time with Bihter! She was able to provide historical insight along with a tasteful local flavor to our experience at Ephesus!
Our local guide Fusun was wonderful. The Mercedez van was clean and the driver was polite and professional. Fusun is licensed and knowledgeable as well as personable.
We enjoyed our tour so much! We went on a Sunday 3 adults and a toddler with the tour guide Meral Yildirim. Meral was super knowledgeable and told us lots of facts and stories relating to the ruins, she also was flexible and took a break when we needed it with the toddler. We recommend this tour to young and old.
We were looking for an excursion not run by our cruise ship and this was perfect. Pick up at the port and very comfortable transport in an air conditioned van. Our guide Meral was so informative and thoughtful. She wanted to ensure everyone on our tour had an enjoyable experience while learning about Turkey. I believe our tour was a max of 10 people but there were only 4 of us. Extra special attention to make sure we retuned to our ship with plenty of time to spare. We did not expect for this tour to include lunch in outdoor restaurant, the food was excellent. We also made a stop at a leather factory store. They had some interesting style clothing but expensive and sale reps were very pushy to make a sale. Overall this tour was fantastic. So happy with our day in Turkey!
Had a wonderful guide, Meral Yildirim who was knowledgeable and passionate and made the experience well worthwhile. A really positive experience.
Amazing tour, perfectly balance to take time and see everything without pressure. The guide adapt the speed to the group. I highly recommend this tour to enjoy the site and know more about the region.
We were very grateful to find this affordable tour of Ephesus. We arranged the night before online and the process was extremely easy were picked up at the Port and returned in a very comfortable mini bus making it stressless but the biggest surprise was our lovely tour guide Fusun. Not only was she an excellent guide full of knowledge and interesting facts but she listened to us and fully understood our needs. She made us feel very comfortable and her manner was unimposing, caring and accommodating. We fully recommend Online Travel Turkey and encourage you to utilise this 5-star service. Many thanks. Kind regards Karylene & Micheal O’Neill New Zealand
Tour was good. Our guide Gulsah was friendly and nice. She waited us in front of the cruise port. We were the only guests of this tour, so it was like a private tour for a very good price. Transfer was by comfortable van. One tradeoff was we had to pay for parking at Ephesus. It was just 2 Eur so not big deal, but I thought it's included and in my opinion it should be, so it's more comfortable. Otherwise all was perfect.
Taking in the history behind these amazing ruins was great experience and not to long. Our guide was knowledgable and very helpful.
We are very happy that we chose Ephesus Tour. This tour offers a great experience for history and culture buffs.

Also, the price of the tour was very affordable for our budget. Thank you to the tour team, we will choose them for our future travels!
This tour, which we received from Ephesus Tour at a very affordable price, was a wonderful experience. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and offered us a tour that enriched us historically and culturally. The quality of the places we saw during the tour and the organization was excellent. Also, the price of the tour was very reasonable. I would definitely recommend it to others!
Ephesus tour was excellent. Our tour leader Luis helped us about everything. He is very kind and also he helped us when we are buying Turkish handcrafts. See you soon! I ll come back in oct.
For me and my family was a perfect experience. The tour of Ephesus and our guide Luis was an amazin. I appreciate it and too happy choosing your company. Thanks a lot guys.
The Ephesus tour I joined during my last vacation was an experience full of unforgettable memories. The affordable price of the tour made me hesitate at the beginning, but then my hesitations completely dissipated. We were picked up from our hotel early in the morning and set off in a comfortable bus. Our guide accompanied us every moment of the tour and explained the history of ancient Ephesus as if he was re-enacting it. His energy and knowledge helped us as a group to bond more as we toured the ancient city. When we arrived in Ephesus, I felt like I had traveled deep into history. The ruins of the Temple of Artemis and the splendor of the Grand Theater reflected the fascinating atmosphere of the ancient world. Thanks to the narratives of our guide, I gained a better understanding of life and events of that period. One of the most pleasant moments of the tour was experiencing the flavors of traditional Turkish cuisine. The food served at the restaurant where we stopped for lunch really appealed to our taste buds. In addition, at the end of the tour, I bought local handicraft products as a souvenir and I carry the memory of my vacation with me. All in all, the Ephesus tour was both a fun and educational experience. The affordability, professional guiding service and the mesmerizing beauty of the ancient city were the most attractive aspects of this tour. If you are interested in history and want to spend an unforgettable day, I recommend you not to miss this tour.
The Ephesus tour I joined in the past weeks gave me an unforgettable experience. First of all, I was attracted by the affordability of the tour, but my experience went beyond that. I enjoyed every stage of the tour from the beginning to the end. At the beginning of the tour, we departed from the hotel in comfortable and modern vehicles. Our guide accompanied us throughout the tour and explained the history and importance of ancient Ephesus in detail. Thanks to the knowledge of our guide, I had a deeper understanding while visiting the ruins of the ancient city. When we arrived in Ephesus, I was first mesmerized by the splendor of the Library of Celsus. Our guide shared interesting stories and information about this building. I was also impressed by the ruins of the Temple of Artemis and the splendor of the Grand Theater. Wandering the streets of the ancient city, I felt the deep traces of history and culture. During the breaks during the tour, we had the opportunity to experience the flavors of traditional Turkish cuisine. The flavor and freshness of the food was really appreciated. At the end of the tour, we had the opportunity to shop in the souvenir shops, which was a pleasant surprise. Overall, the Ephesus tour was a fun, educational and inspiring experience for me. Combined with the affordability, quality guiding, the beauty of the ancient city and the delicious food, I felt like I had spent a great vacation day. I would recommend this tour to everyone with peace of mind!

Fabulous tour guide. She had unbelievable historical knowledge. Meral Took us to outlets where we shopped for really good prices.
the affordable ephesus tour was really affordable and also excellent, it was totally beyond our expectations. You can choose the tour without any concern. I appreciate it.
Our guide Luis made the experience even more meaningful by telling the stories of these historical and spiritual spots. Learning about the intersection of history, mythology and beliefs made the tour not just an excursion, but an educational experience. The service we received was far above what we paid for.
My family and I got an excellent and very affordable tour with guide Luis. He made our day full. He showed us the best Turkish Carpet village and we bought 4 hand woven rugs. Thanks a lot guys

The information given around Ephesus site was great, couldn’t have asked for a better day, definitely would highly recommend .Comfy air conditioned vehicle, Very reasonably priced ,went to a leather shop, bought some Turkish delight ,wonderful memorable day thank you
We bought this very affordable tour at the last minute with friends we met on the ship. We were a little worried, but our guide Mehmet gave us such a good service. We both visited Ephesus and did shopping. Our captain was very careful and very polite. But when going to Ephesus, you should definitely take a hat or umbrella with you. Because it is very hot. I recommend it to everyone.
Our guide Luis met us at the port and we went to Ephesus with a stylish car waiting for us. Don't forget to take a photo in front of the library while visiting Ephesus. The lunch we had in the carpet village was wonderful. The experience we had here was super. We really got excellent service at a very reasonable price. I will definitely recommend it to all my friends.
Our guide Ozan met us at the port, we visited Ephesus together with other friends we met on the ship. The kindness and knowledge of our guide was tremendous. Our driver (I can't remember his name, I apologize) was very polite. But most importantly, the tour price was very affordable. Thank you for the service.
