Ephesus Private Tours from Kusadasi ( Port-Hotels ), izmir ( Airport-Hotels ), Selcuk Merhaba / Hello ! My name is Taylan. I am a professional licensed tour guide in English language. I was born in Kuşadası / Ephesus and grew up listening to various stories from Archaeologists working in Ephesus excavations and first generation local guides. Being a tour guide has always been a dream for me. After taking my 4 year Bachelor degree on tour guiding, I completed the necessary trainings, exams and got my working license from the ministry of culture and tourism. I combined history of Ephesus, Roman history, Christianity, Ancient Greek life, Mythology, World history, Architecture and many more lessons that I received in my education with the stories I heard from Archaeologists and Guides. Also I have been researching the most recent archaeological studies-excavations in order to keep myself and my guests updated. I offer different experiences to my guests rather than customary standard tours, create new tour itineraries with different concepts and customize tours all over Turkey. I believe the best way to learn about the country, its cultures and tradations is to meet the locals. More and more travellers seek to escape the confines of group tours, set itineraries and have the flexibility to take part in activities linked to their own interests. I try to understand what travellers are looking for during the tour and answer their expectations. My goal is to give you all the best and quality service to make you satisfied during your trip in my country. Share your intended tours, needs, interests and questions with me and I will customize the best tour itinerary for you. While travelling with me there no crowds, no rush, no waiting. Best regards. ************************************ Some benefits of Private Ephesus tours : * My private tours are reasonable priced, * Freedom to decide when and where to start your tour, * Personalized Tour Design - I design sights and destinations with your group in mind, * Smaller Groups - I am there for you, your friends and family. There are not dozens of people to contend with for the guide's attention.

    We had an absolutely incredible tour of Ephesus and Kuşadası, entirely thanks to our fantastic guide. Right from the start, our guide was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and deeply knowledgeable. The historical explanations at Ephesus were engaging and clear, bringing the ancient ruins to life rather than just reciting facts. The transportation was top-notch—we traveled...

    Taylan is the best tour guide I have ever used. It was an absolute pleasure to have him work with us on our trip. He is extremely knowledgeable about the entire region as well as his country and its history. He provided many details that we would never have known. It’s almost as though he lived in ancient Turkey. His personality is great. He is engaging and humorous, and...
