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.

Pamukkale, meaning "Cotton Castle" in Turkish, . The city contains hot springs and travertines, terraces of carbonate minerals left by the flowing water.

Pamukkale, which has a unique beauty in the world, has been on the UNESCO list since 1988. Travertine formations formed thanks to the minerals in the water have enabled it to be used as a thermal center since the Roman period.

In our tour, we will be able to swim in thermal waters as well as visit the ruins of the ancient city of Hierapolis. Among the places to see are the Cleopatra pool, travertine pools, theater and museum.
