Private Customised Day Tour in Ephesus with lunch

My wife and I spent a delightful day with Nesrin, beginning with a private tour of the Ephesus site, continuing to a local craft center for lunch, visiting the hillside village of Sirince (including stops for local wine and Turkish coffee) and ending with a visit to the Isa Bey mosque and a familty-run ceramics workshop. Nesrin speaks excellent English, is deeply knowledgeable about Turkish and classical history and culture, and has a warm, calm and engaging manner. Despite the ambitious agenda we never felt rushed, and she was always ready to adapt our plan as the day unfolded. She had arranged the assistance of a driver and comfortable van for the day, making changes of location easy and fast. We would absolutely recommend Nesrin n to anyone visiting the Selcuk / Ephesus area and will seek her out again when we return!

Our guide, Nesrin, was very knowledgeable and well informed. She spoke exceptional English and provided a wealth of information on Turkish history, food and culture. She was very engaging and made the history of Ephesus come alive. Highly recommended!

Our day with Nesrin was fantastic! She provided us with an incredible insight into Ephesus, made certain we enjoyed lunch at a small farm in the countryside, and got to see how hand-tied Turkish carpets are made. Our day with Nesrin was the highlight of our 2-week vacation. We cannot recommend her tours highly enough!

Nesrin O was our tour guide for this wonderful day in Ephesus and Kusadasi. We could not have asked for or imagined a better experience! She shared wonderful insights into the ancient site and how it has been maintained/rebuilt over the years. Nesrin knew just how to avoid the crowds and get up a close to the ruins! We loved our visit to the CO-OP farm for lunch and demonstration of carpet making by local women. Nesrin was truly a joy to learn from!

Nesrin was the best tour guide for our trip to Ephesus. She communicated well upfront to design the best day for us and avoid crowds when possible. She was very knowledgeable about Ephesus, knew interesting facts and could answer all our questions. She arranged a delicious lunch for us afterwards and was a joy to be with as she showed us around Kusadasi and the smaller nearby towns. Cannot recommend her enough!

A month has passed since we explored Ephesus with Nesrin, and it still comes to mind. Our day was truly magical, only made more wonderful by our guide. Traveling with a toddler, we asked for an easygoing schedule with sights, tastes and even a cultural experience. Nesrin accomplished it all without us ever feeling rushed. She showed us around like friends rather than clients. We’re thankful that she was part of our first visit to Turkey!
