    We had an amazing time and journey. Umut and team were wonderful and responsive, the tour guides we had in all 3 cities were experienced and knowledgeable, the transportations and drivers were excellent throughout. We paid the private tour supplement which was very reasonable and recommended for those who enjoys such. The standard class hotel in Istanbul was perfectly located and very comfortable. We upgraded hotels in Kusadasi and Cappadocia and again very recommended for the price difference - both the Charisma Deluxe and Mithra Cave hotels had great views and rooms. Also would suggest adding the Cappadocia Green Tour which we did and enjoyed. Umut and team were also very accommodating with domestic flights and worked around our preferences. Overall highly recommend Guide of Ephesus, this tour and Umut and his team for your upcoming travels in Turkey.

    This tour was AMAZING! Every part of our trip was well-planned and executed. We are South Africans who visited Turkey for the first time. We were pleased with our hotels, transport and tour guides. Our tour guides were very knowledgeable and were able to answer our questions. We also had free time to relax and unwind, or do other activities, aside from the tour itself. The meals, especially the lunches, were absolutely delicious!! This is the third tour that I have booked through Tour Radar, and I have been pleased every single time! I would highly recommend Guide of Ephesus - Mr Umut was on top of everything - sending instructions/directions and answering questions immediately. Thanks to him, we had a stress-free and relaxing trip! I would like to convey my heartfelt thanks to every person involved in this tour - from the drivers to the guides to the hotel staff at every hotel we stayed at. They were all so helpful and made our trip a memorable one!!!

    This was a great tour, everything went smoothly, communication was good and my queries were always answered promptly. This is a very busy and full on tour but to see and experience everything it has to be done. Would highly recommend, the tour guides in all locations were knowledgeable and friendly. The hotels were great, friendly staff, clean rooms and breakfast was good, best hotel for me was the Recital in Istanbul, the staff were the best really friendly and went out of there way to help and give advise.

    Wonderful trip at a terrific price-performance ratio. The logistics were also amazingly good. A comfortable cab was always immediately available for our family, very good guides. After our plane was unable to land due to bad weather conditions and we missed our connecting flight as a result, we were immediately helped on the spot and a new flight was organized so that we could see everything as planned. Many thanks again for that. The trip is certainly not for relaxation, but it is not stressful. Everything is taken care of and you are taken everywhere you need to go. There was still quite a bit of snow in February, but very few tourists. A winter hike through Cappadocia was also possible due to the return flight in the evening and we can recommend it.

    We just returned from an absolutely unforgettable journey, and every moment was impeccably planned and executed. From the moment we landed at İstanbul Havalimanı, the warm welcome and seamless transportation to our hotel set the tone for an effortless adventure. The itinerary was perfectly curated—with each tourist spot wisely chosen to showcase Turkey’s rich history and vibrant culture. Exploring the iconic landmarks of Istanbul, such as St. Sophia, Topkapi Palace, the Blue Mosque, and the Hippodrome, was nothing short of awe-inspiring. The tour guides were exceptionally knowledgeable about the history and customs, adding depth and context to every site we visited. Every detail was handled with care—from smooth transfers between cities to comfortable domestic flights, ensuring we never had to worry about transportation logistics. Whether cruising along the Bosphorus, wandering through the bustling Grand Bazaar, or marveling at the natural wonders of Pamukkale and Cappadocia, the experience was simply amazing. Thank you for an incredible trip that was as enriching as it was hassle-free. We’re already looking forward to our next adventure!

    Amazing trip with Guide of Ephesus. The hotels were really good with all the comforts. The guides for all locations were knowledgeable and punctual. We had enough time to explore all sites and learn about the history. Private transport was provided in modern shuttle vehicles. This tour was excellent value with everything included and bonus lunches. Will definitely recommend this tour operator to anyone looking for a memorable trip to Turkey.
