Ephesus and Pamukkale

Christina_L, Sep 2019
The tour was excellent. We did so much in just two days. Our tour guide Derya was fantastic as was her driver. I do have two BIG negative comments though. First, the hotel that was booked for us was absolutely horrendous (A $650 for a tour, one should expect a reasonable accommodation). Second, the pick-up upon return to Istanbul airport wasn't waiting for us. I called our guide (luckily I took her number) who called the driver - he was asleep in the parking lot!!! He eventually came to get us and then had the nerve to expect a tip at the hotel!!!
