    Good tour
    This was a really good tour. There was a lot of walking, but it was worth every minute. The guide was knowledgeable, thorough and friendly.

    Amazing day tour of Cappadocia
    Vedat did a great job touring us around! We highly recommend doing a private tour of Cappadocia as you’re able to take it as your own pace and customize it as you wish.

    Best tour of Ephesus!
    We had a great time with Ali on our tour from the Kudasi cruise port. We had a great tour of St John Basilica and an excellent stop to observe the pottery process in an intimate setting with just the five of us.

    Our detailed exploration of Ephesus excavation was top notch and not to be missed. We were able to see more than just a regular bus tour would. Ali, our guide, was very passionate in his explanations of what was being revealed all around us. We had lots of questions, all easily answered.

    We finished off our 6 hour tour with an authentic Turkish lunch where Ali explained all the dishes and the significance of the local culture for the many dishes we shared.

    Excellent!!

    Great tour with Belgin. She was very educated and answered all questions we had about the historic cites.
    Belgin was great! Would not try to do these tours alone, would have been confusing and VERY long lines for tickets. All cites were Istanbul must sees for sure!

    Great vacations
    We had an amazing private guided tour of Istanbul with airport transfer service. Our guide, Ms. Ozge, was very informative and kind. She made our trip very special. We visited the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Hippodrome, Topkapi Palace, and Grand Bazaar.

    Ms. Ozge shared a lot of history and information about each place. The sights were beautiful, and we learned so much about Turkish art and culture. We also enjoyed good food and great shopping.

    We had to pay the entrance fees for Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace, but it was worth it. Ms. Ozge bought the tickets for us, so we didn't have to wait in long lines. Guides have priority ticket offices, which saved us a lot of time.

    Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we highly recommend this tour!

    A day to remember
    This trip was one of the highlights of our holiday. It was so much better than a group trip because we were able to spend our time exactly as we chose. We never felt we were rushing to keep up with a group.and were able to stop and have rests and refreshments as we pleased. We could take a bit longer to have a closer look at things that caught our eye and pop into shops if we wanted. As soon as we were ready to move on from each place there was no hanging around on a coach waiting for latecomers.
    Our tour guide was excellent. He was so knowledgeable and answered all our questions. As soon as we left the hotel he started telling us about things we saw on the journey and in addition to all the historical information he shared lots of fascinating facts about the plants and trees of the area. He also took lots of photos of us using our camera and had some great spots for lovely pictures.
    All the places we visited were amazing and the only time we had to queue was for Mary's House. Due to long lines there the staff in the house were rushing people along so unfortunately there was no time to stand inside and reflect and soak up the atmosphere . However this was not within the control of our tour guide and he took extra trouble to make sure we had plenty of time to pause in the gardens.
    We were collected from our hotel foyer and brought back at the end of the day. There was only a slight difference in price between this private tour and going with a group and it was worth every penny.
    Thank you Vistor

    Step back in time at Ephesus
    Amazing experience! We thoroughly enjoyed our tour, with Tas as our guide. His great love for the Ephesus historical site is evident and he is fluent in English. Tas is educated in both HIstory and Art and was eager to share his wealth of knowledge with us. Don't miss the Terrace Houses, they were the highlight. Suggest you ask for Tas when booking!

    Ephesus Tour from Cruise port
    Used this tour instead of cruise line. It was so easy to find the guide from the port. Our tour guide was so lovely and knowledgeable. We enjoyed this tour so much more than going alone or in a large group. We beat the large crowds as well and had some time for shopping. And most of all we felt safe as women traveling alone. Thank you again - would highly recommend.

    Fabulous tour!
    Tolga was a wonderful tour guide! He is extremely knowledgeable about the culture, food, and history and we had a wide sampling of local food. Walking was easy and we never felt rushed. We would highly recommend this tour and especially Tolga.

    Amazing Istanbul experience
    I recently visited Istanbul with my wife for the first time and Ozgur was our tour guide for two days. He is one of the most knowledgeable tour guides we have ever met. He managed our itinerary very well and managed to give us an experience of a lifetime. He explained all the major attractions with such great detail and gave us a genuine view of Istanbul through the eyes of a local. He made us experience the great culture the city. He was mindful of our time, energy and expectations. I really would encourage anyone visiting Istanbul to use Ozgur as their tour guide. Ozgur is one of the best the city has to offer. Definitely will be using him on our next visit

    Great experience with a top crew!
    An excellent tour with an even better guide. Unfortunately we didn't really have nice sunny weather, but the balloon flight was beautiful. Lots of balloons and a bit commercial. But our guide Ahmet made up for everything. We received a great explanation about Pamukkale with many Greek and Roman gods and we had plenty of free time. The ride was well organized, even arrived too early, but Ahmet would call you in advance. So all in all highly recommended! Thank you Ahmed, and driver, for the beautiful day.
