Be very careful booking this tour

paula_o, Apr 2026

Although the historical sites were wonderful to visit, and our guide very knowledgeable, be aware that they also bring you to leather and carpet demonstrations with hard sale tactics. These 2 stops were NOT on our itinerary and took over an hour of our tour. Was truly very disappointed our time was wasted. Best to find a company that will honor the itinerary you sign up for.

Must do for Ephesus
