Such an amazing tour with Umut! He was very knowledgeable, funny, and friendly. The views were incredible, fashion/rug show was fun (one of the best apple juice!), and food was yummy! Big thank you to Umut!
We did the tour to Pamukkale and could not fault the promptness and knowledge of Yesim who was extremely obliging with everything we needed or wanted to do. She explained everything about the area in detail and then took as to a local place to eat the most amazing food. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is in the area.
Yesim, Umut (tour guide) and Suat (driver) were fantastic with our group! Umut was very knowledgeable about the history of Ephesus. They were able to adjust the tour to allow us to avoid long lines. Lunch at a local coop with all fresh food prepared by local families was a real treat!
Yesim was an incredible guide for our group! We were an international crowd on a yoga retreat and Yesim’s energy, English, knowledge and vibe was a beautiful addition to our experience in Turkey and our tour of Ephesus. Great prices and very honest company.
Yesim came to our hotel on time to pick us up and arranged for Ephesus to be on the evening ticket without queuing. Visiting in this hot summer evening is much cooler than during the day. Her explanation is very in-depth, vivid and interesting, and she has taken many photos for us. Their prices are also very reasonable. If you want to visit Ephesus, I highly recommend Yesim's group.
