Great tour guide. Breakfast bagel and spreads. Ok lunch, but not as good as on our tour to Parmukkale. Bus was ok, but not as good as Parmuakkale tour. Extra visits to interesting ceramic factory. Good tour in Ephesus, where good shoes for steep slippy surfaces.Very good interactive experience (listed as a museum) at end of tour. Remember TICKETS to enter Ephesus are not included in the tour price, but its still very good value for a 12 to 14 hr trip with food.

It was a long day, walking in heat, but an amazing sight to see, once in a lifetime bucket list experience (except this is my 4th time and probably the best) The best due to your with Arbek/Hectore travel, we had an excellent coach driver, breakfast boxes and most of all a brilliant guide Nur Sultan who was extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture, very helpful and friendly and organised your leader. We would recommend this trip highly.
Great tour with Nur

We booked this trip . Shop around for a good price. It was a coach trip . Breakfast was a fresh bread and dips, juice and a muffin. Lunch was a buffet. The place is fantastic with lots of history and interesting facts. It’s a long day but we’ll worth it.
Worth the journey

Despite the long journey from Marmaris, Ephesus is definitely worth a visit. There are stops along the way and good breakfast and lunch provided. Entrance fees are collected on the bus, despite people being concerned about this, all above board and the correct fees collected.
Excellent day trip.

What a fantastic trip! 'Bestie' was seriously the best tour guide I've come across. Her youth, enthusiasm and incredible historical knowledge kept us on our toes all day. My 14 year old loved every minute of it too - well worth the trip!
Bad experience

Pros: - pick-up in time as promised - good and professional driver - fast entrance at Ephesus Cons: - wasted over one and a half hour at a ceramic store and a turkish delight store which are not mentioned at the tour description - rushed through Ephesus, if you want to listen to the guide then there is almost no time left to take pictures. Got to run after her all the time. We got 30 min to explore the site on our own and buy something to drink/eat which was not enough at all - rude guide, not possible to ask questions - breakfast in a plastic box including bread, some strawbery jam, honey, butter, chocolate and a small juice that we hade to eat at the bus - lunch at a smelly restaurant with suspicious food
