    I recommend wholeheartedly getting a tour guide to visit Ephesus. We like to do things on our own, but decided last-minute to hire a guide. It's the best decision we could have taken! Our trip to Ephesus wouldn't have been the same. It was actually the highlight to our trip to Turkey. A big thanks to Mr. Denizhan Pekoz, our guide, who was able to arrange everything last minute. He made our visit so enjoyable with his extensive knowledge of the region, his patience and his excellent recommendations.

    When I was looking for a good guide in Kuşadası, I decided to choose Ephesus Travel Guide. It was one of the best decisions during my trip. We not only visited the ruins of Ephesus and the place where the Temple of Artemis had been built, but also saw the modern pottery manufacturing process and carpet weaving. I strongly recommend Mrs. Filiz as a tour guide. She is really the best one I've ever seen! Filiz is very talkative, has a perfect knowledge of the history of Ephesus, and speaks English fluently. We had a fascinating 8-hour tour filled with useful information that helped me understand more about the lifestyle of ancient citizens.

    I found the company through great reviews online and Denizhan was very responsive from the beginning stages of planning the customized tour until the day of the tour. It was easy to plan everything through whatsapp and he answered every question I had. We were coming from Istanbul and arranged our own roundtrip flight to Izmir airport. The car ride from Izmir to Selcuk (Ephesus) and back was nice and we had a comfortable van. We had a very informative tour with Denizhan. He knows a great deal of historical and Biblical information about the area and the sites we went to. He doesn’t waste any second as there was so much to know about the place so be sure to tell him that you want a quick picture before moving on to the next spot! :) He also took us to a stop that sells local ceramic and we ended up buying souvenirs from the place as the quality was good. I highly recommend staying overnight in the area to see nearby places if you have time. I wish we had done that. But I definitely recommend Denizhan for a private tour of Ephesus and the surrounding area! Very impressive guide who truly knows a great deal about history. You can tell how passionate he is about his job and the local area.

    Dennis was there to greet us at the port and our private guide started from the minute we met explaining Turkish culture, language and population. The tour of the Ancient city of Ephesus was fascinating and Dennis captivated the audience of my children and answered all their question. He had so much information to offer and would highly highly recommend to anyone. Due to the ages of our children and the heat we didn’t linger and he suggested that to make more interesting for our younger children that we go to a pottery making workshop and handmade rug making factory. An excellent addition and completed the trip for us. 5 stars recommendation

    We had the pleasure of dealing with Orchuns company in January. They responded to our queries on WhatsApp instantly. Arranged our transfer from Izmir airport and we drove into Ephasus. We met Orchun at the Basilica. He was so kind and allowed us to use the coffee shop WiFi to book our accommodation as we had not finalized it as yet. We had a bite to eat after our travels and walked across the road to enter the marvelous ruins. We had been very taken aback by how much of an expert Orchun was. He is fluent in English and is captivating in his story telling. He speaks of the tales and brings everything to life in such a memorable way. We walked the streets, met local people. He was quite well know amongst the community and very polite. Orchun was patient. He answered all our questions and was very accommodating when we needed to take pictures. Both Orchun and the driver were very flexible and thoroughly took great care of us. My highlights were the Virgin Marys home and the city of Ephasus. I absolutely recommend this tour guide. They are truly professional.

    Earlier this week our group of 4 did a private tour of Ephesus and Virgin Mary's house with Semih. Our guide and driver were ready for us as soon as we arrived at the meeting location. We had an excellent day learning interesting facts and seeing the sights. Our guide was very knowledgeable and told us lots of historical information. Our vehicle was air-conditioned with bottles of cold water which was great in the hot weather. We really recommend booking with this tour company if you are visiting Ephesus. Very professional and great communication back and forth confirming our booking and meeting times.

    We requested a private tour that was bespoke and from a time perspective was a little ambitious. Communication prior to the tour was easy and our guide Tan was great on the day, tailoring the tour and his commentary to our specific interests. Transport was an extremely comfortable new Mercedes. Would recommend to anyone and would use again in future if back in the Ephesus area.

    Denizhan is an exceptional tour guide. He has very good spoken English and is a fountain of knowledge. We learnt many things on our Ephesus tour both historically and about Turkey in general. The cost of the tour was very good value and was well paced and well timed. We had flown into Izmir for the day but at no time was there any anxiety about timings. In addition, we did not feel pressured to purchase anything at all the handicraft centres we were taken to, and they turned out to be very interesting.

    Volcan was a phenomenal guide. He took the time to share every detail of his extensive knowledge of the history and culture of the place. What an unforgettable experience! We absolutely loved every second of it. Would not use any other guide to visit Ephesus! Thank you!!

    The Ephesus tour was an amazing experience. We highly recommend a private tour with Ephesus Travel Guide. Our guide was very knowledgeable, professional, and patient with our group of 10.

    We highly recommend the tour of Ephesus that Denizhan Pekoz and members of his tour company leads. From the first time that we inquired about a tour, he was nothing but extremely professional. All of the information he gave us before the tour was clear and very helpful, and there were no unpleasant surprises, only pleasant ones! He and his driver picked us up from the port in a very comfortable van. On the tour and while driving from site to site we learned so much more from his extremely informative tour than we ever expected we would; from information about Turkey itself, to most likely every single fact about the history of Ephesus that a visitor should learn and be aware of, to very interesting information about nature, industry, history, current events in Turkey and everything in between! Denizhan is such an interesting person with an incredible knowledge base! He took care of all our needs including the driver helping my 80-year-old mother in and out of the van and giving a suggestion about where we could eat lunch. They were so kind and thoughtful, and we appreciated every aspect of how we spent the day with them. We highly recommend them and wish them all the best in their future as a very excellent tour company.

    This was the 3rd time I’ve organized a guided tour with Denizhan in the last 5 years, all different. Again, everything was fantastic and our guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. I can easily say that Denizhan truly cares about his customers’ experience, even advising us to switch days to avoid crowds when cruise ships were in port. I look forward to my next trip to the area and will absolutely be in contact with Denizhan again.
