5.00We took a group trip to Istanbul. We stayed five days, there we loved the hotel that gave us the excellent bus and the Guide. I want to congratulate the Guide for his patience for his joy for his knowledge and his always very positive attitude always attentive to us, as it was a group of older people, and I want to congratulate Sema directly from Travel Turkey, because his service is excellent, always attentive that we did not lack anything, very friendly and super efficient., the truth is one of the best experiences we have had, as we have made many trips previously with other places
Highly recommend! Well run, informative tour.

5.00Greatly exceeded expectations! Just a great experience all the way through. Our guide (Rose/Gul) was great with communication—she reached out on WhatsApp the night before to confirm details about the pick up and then again in the AM to let me know she had arrived. The tour vehicle was newer and very clean and comfortable. We had a separate driver (ie in addition to the guide) which I greatly appreciate . Driver was very professional and a safe driver. Rose is very knowledgeable about the subject matter and her English is fluent and easy to understand. She took many pictures for us and knew the best spots for good picture views. Highly recommend! Really enjoyed the morning. I don’t know if we got an “off season” discount but our private tour with Rose cost the same as the cruise line’s megabus excursion and was a much better experience.
Great experience with Gul/Rose

5.00Gul or Rose was very sweet, friendly, and accommodating 😊. Glad to have had her as our tour guide in Ephesus! I would love to have her tour me around again in case I come back to Turkey.

Outstanding guide Gül at Efesus and surrounding areas

5.00What a wonderful experience to have Gül as our guide. She shared a lot of historical information about Efesus and Turkey in general with us without overwhelming us. Thanks to her we were able to avoid the crowds in most places with went to and knew exactly where to take pictures. Gül made my husband’s birthday extra special with a little dessert birthday cake at lunch. You can tell she loves her job and working with people. Having a guide like her makes all the difference when you are exploring the area. Highly recommend Gûl and Neopolis travel.
Top Shelf!

5.00We booked a private tour and were blessed to get Oznur. She was fabulous. She knew when to share historical, cultural geographical and personal information and keep things fresh. She has wonderful perspectives, very knowledgeable, personable, attentive, caring.and fun. The tour itself was well beyond our expectations We saw great sites, learned a lot and ate a little (delicious full lunch but our appetites were small). The tour was very good, Oznur was phenomenal Roli

5.00We had such a wonderful and memorable day exploring Izmir as a family of nine! Our tour guide, Rose, was exceptional… very organized, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about sharing the history and culture of each place we visited. She gave us great insider tips that helped us stay ahead of the crowd, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. One of the highlights was visiting the House of the Virgin Mary early in the morning before the crowd arrived… a thoughtful adjustment that made the moment extra special and peaceful. Our driver, Mehmeh, was also very professional and kind, making sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. Everything was perfectly timed, well-coordinated, and stress-free. We learned so much and made lasting family memories. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Izmir!
The best tour guide and tour driver ever!

5.00Gül (Rose) was a very bright and helpful guide! She made sure we were comfortable while learning a lot from her tour. She also made our request to be the first to enter the House of Mary happen! Everything we did was full of information and she made sure we had fun. Our driver Mehmet was also very nice and very good! He is a very safe driver and also very helpful! All in all, our family of 9 members had the best time in Ephesus! Thank you to Rose and Mehmet!
