Great tour with Gizem!

5.00Our guide, Gizem, was both friendly and informative! She provided helpful historical and cultural information about Ephesus! Her recommendations of a visit to a pottery shop and a Turkish delicacy shop were well worth our time and we thoroughly enjoyed our interaction with the owners! Thank you, Gizem, for a memorable day together!
Timing and a great past

5.00It was a 5-star experience from beginning to finish. The personnel made sure that our stay was lengthy enough for us to leave the cruise early. The cost of entry was really reasonable. We did a good job of handling the audience size, and the historical setting was fantastic. The ideal thing for those who like history.
Highly recommend

5.00Since it was just our family, we could adjust the pace. We spent extra time at the Library of Celsus and skipped the parts we weren't interested in. Our guide was super patient and knowledgeable. Highly recommend Turco Travel!

5.00Booking a private tour was the best decision we made. We avoided the massive bus crowds and had the guide's full attention. Ephesus is breathtaking, and having a local expert explain the history of the Temple of Artemis made it even better! 🏛️✨
Many many Thanks Turco Travel. Highly Recommended ❤️

5.00This tour exceeded our expectations. Our guide met us right at the Kusadasi cruise port, and the car was spotless and air-conditioned (a blessing in the summer heat!). Ephesus was mind-blowing — the Celsus Library, the amphitheater, everything came alive with our guide’s storytelling. We even stopped by a local carpet shop and learned how silk threads are made — surprisingly fascinating!

5.00Our ship docked in Kusadasi, and we chose Turco Travel for our shore excursion. It turned out to be the highlight of our entire cruise! From the warm welcome at the port to the amazing commentary throughout the day, everything was perfect. We loved Ephesus, the Temple of Artemis, and the local Turkish lunch. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
