Our tour guide ably showed us which sights to concentrate on given the time we had. We skipped the line and proceeded inside immediately. Ali helped guide us through the experience. Ephesus has so much to offer for insights into that time. Also, it was an important area at the start of Christianity and the spread into the Roman empire. You are introduced to a timeline that might not be entirely obvious. A rewarding experience indeed. The other part of Ephesus is a touching visit to the house of the Virgin Mary above Ephesus.

What I appreciated most about Serdar was his kindness and patience. He made sure everyone in our group was comfortable and answered all of our questions with enthusiasm. He even went out of his way to take photos for us and recommend local restaurants for lunch. The tour itself was well-organized and efficient, allowing us to see all the major attractions without feeling rushed. The transportation was comfortable and our driver was also very friendly and professional. I also want to mention that we came with a cruise and the Unique Ephesus Tour Company made sure we were back in time for our departure. This attention to detail and consideration for our schedule was much appreciated.

Being new to Kusadasi (Turkey) for the very first time especially on the cruise. We booked the trip to skip the line private van to Ephesus. Ali is a great tour guide and help explain the history detail and our trip plan tour. He was very flexible on changing the itinerary. We skip the House of virgin Mary and visit some other site. The Skip the Line ticket was great. he made a phone call and got the ticket for us. Ephesus is a MUST visit. The trip included free lunch and Ali help take some of our group pictures. Ali took us to other sites where we got some good deals on the products. Ali take us back in time in the port and we have some time for local shopping there. We are so happy with our tour guide and the company he work for.
