5.00Just finished our day long private tour with Alican Ozdalar. He is a very personable man. It was amazing. He made recommendations and allowed us to choose what we wanted to see. He is very knowledgable about the locations, took us to the best spots to take photos and pointed out things that we would have missed if we had gone on our own.
AN ABSOLUTE FABULOUS EXPERIENCE

5.00If you can request guides definitely request Kivrak! Booking with the company is very easy. They respond to questions quickly and the quoted price is true. If there are any extra expenses to enter a certain site or for lunch they are mentioned ahead of time and exact prices. The vehicle was clean and comfortable and had air conditioning for our family of five. They are aware of the ships plans entering and leaving port and will make sure they are waiting when it arrives and back before it leaves!
Very smooth private tour

5.00Arriving in Ephesus on a cruis ship we were looking for a tour that suited us better than those offered by the cruise company which were not only incredibly expensive but meant leaving the ship very early! Looking at all the good reviews we chose to contact Ephesus Port Tours and what a great decision. We had a tremendous day with Mehmet as our guide who met us at a time to suit us (10.30am) and catered the tour to suit our needs. What a joy to be met at the port with an air conditioned car/driver and have a presonalised tour for just the two of us. Mehmet was so very knowledgeable and made Ephesus come alive for us. Don't miss the Terrace houses and also the 'experience' at the end. Seeing all the crowds trying to follow a tour guide made us really appreciate our individual attention. Don't hesitate to use Port Tours - our contact via email was excellent and very efficient. You do need cash to pay and also extra 40 Euros per person for entry plus 15 euros pp to do the Terrace houses which are well worthwhile. The whole site is just amazing and huge thanks again to Mehmet for the highlight of our cruise.
Very attentive and knowledgeable

The tour was well-paced, and she was very kind, professional, and easy to understand. Highly recommend for anyone visiting this amazing site! She also took us for an authentic lunch and explained each item on the table. She definitely made it an amazing experience.
