Merhaba / Hello Greetings from Turkey; My name is Murat and I live in Kusadasi-Ephesus which is located on the westen Anatolia (Asia Minor) of Modern Republic of Turkey. I am a Private Guide that offers Private tours of Ephesus and any other sites in Turkey. First of all I would like to make a short description about myself; I love my job very much , I've been a professional tour guide for more than 10 years and I've conducted tours all over the country but my favorite part is Ephesus-Kusadasi, the place where I live. I promise you I'm going to show you the best of Ephesus and each Stone from this marvellous city has an unbelievable history. After graduation I knew that I must be a guide because this is the perfect way to show to other people the real face of my country. During your stay in Turkey, I want to be your friend and offer you an authentical turkish experience and show you why this part of Asia has had such a huge impact on other civilizations. I assure you I will not only quote to you just what I have learnt from the books (e. g historical events and dates) but also I am going to tell you the real story of our places we are going to see, the legends and what means the place for locals. I invite every one of you to visit my country and have fun discovering the amazing history and nature of Turkey. Having a look on my tours if there is a tour that you liked but is not entirely what you are looking for please don't hesitate to contact me and we can talk about it and create the most exciting experience for you. In accordance with the recent amendments of laws regarding tour guiding in Turkey, the guides are not allowed to directly sell tours. Tours quaranteed here are to be by means of an officialy registered A Class Tourism & Travel Agency. Looking forward to meet you, Best Regards I am a licensed tour guide in English and Spanish. I do have driving license aswell. I studied Travel Management and Tour Guding for 5 years in University and I study one year of that in Spain Tourism and Languages.

Mi familia quedò encantada con el tour por Efeso y Kusadasi, Murat nos recogiò en el puerto puntualmente y fuimos de los primeros en entrar a las ruinas de Efeso, antes que todos los camiones de tours, asì que pudimos disfrutar de las ruinas sin multitudes. Murat se encargò de incluir a todos los miembros de nuestro grupo multigeneracional y antes de regresar al puerto nos llevò a comer a un restaurante donde tuvimos una excelente comida tradicional turca.

Your Kusadasi tour itinerary

Ephesus is located in the modern town of Selçuk which is 20 km from kuşadası. In Turkish we call Ephesus ''Efes'' and that refers only to ruins where people still live is called Selçuk so that is like half an hour ride from the harbor of Kuşadası. Visit: -Ephesus, -The temple of Artemis, -House of Virgin Mary, -The Basilica of St. Jean, -Lunch -Shopping opportunities, -Museums are all in Selçuk, so we can go to Selçuk we visit whatever my guests wish to see and come back hotel/port/airport, etc. . . This is a suggested itinerary, let me know what you would like to see and do and I will customize the tour accordingly!
