Our tour with Fatma was absolutely fantastic. From start to finish, she was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly passionate about sharing the history of Ephesus, St Mary’s House and St John’s Basilica. She made us feel comfortable and engaged throughout the day. We especially appreciated how Fatma went above and beyond — answering all our questions, and making sure we had an amazing time. The entire experience felt personal and well-organized. If you’re considering this tour, don’t hesitate — Fatma will make it a memorable and enjoyable experience!

We had an amazing experience touring Ephesus with our local guide, Fatima, during our stop with the Oceania Vista. From the very beginning, everything was organized perfectly. Meeting Fatima was smooth and hassle-free—she was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable about the history and culture of the area. One of the highlights of the day was the local lunch, which was absolutely delicious and authentic. We also visited a carpet school, seeing the artistry up close added a unique cultural touch to the tour. The entire day was well-paced, informative, and enjoyable from start to finish. Excellent service throughout, and Fatima truly made it special. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area.
