Ulas was a fantastic, friendly, professional, well prepared young man. The day couldn’t be better. We were with a professional driver. We felt very safe although it was our first time in Turkey. Exceeded our expectations.

We had a wonderful day today with Ulaș. It was the best tour we have taken on our many cruises. He was very friendly, personable, knowledgeable, and we felt like we were spending the day with a new friend. His English was impeccable, and he was very easy to understand. His love for his country was very evident in his enthusiasm and pride in the culture and history of Turkey. He took us to a farm-to-table lunch, which was absolutely delicious. We were in a very comfortable van, with a very competent driver. We spent almost 8 hours with Ulaș and my husband, and I would have been very happy to spend even more time with him.

Erkan was a wonderful guide! My mother was in a wheelchair. Erkan made certain that the vehicle could accommodate her wheelchair. She slightly altered the tour to afford me the opportunity to see local artisans in my craft. She then, realizing my mom was tiring, again readjusted plans to ensure mom was able to see what was most important for her. Her personal touches made our experiences that day, the best of the entire 2weeks. Her knowledge of the local and world history brought ancient ruins to life for us. I would recommend her to anyone wanting an in depth tour of the area.

Banu was an excellent guide. She was considerate and took us to places that were very interesting. She she answered all our questions and explained everything in great detail. She was pleasant and made sure that we were seeing all the sites that we wanted to do. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to have an interesting and informative visit to Ephesus.

This was an amazing tour given by Ulas. He went out of his way to make this tour fabulous. He was knowledgeable of all the sights and provided humor and positivity. I recommend choosing Ulas and our driver was Sahin was the best.

Had a great time in Ephesus. Our private guide Banu was very knowledgeable about the ancient history and the local traditional businesses.
