Would definitely recommend, already started recommending tour radar.Show moreTrip date: May 2025- TKThomas Ryan· May 18th, 2025We had an amazing time and journey. Umut and team were wonderful and responsive, the tour guides we had in all 3 cities were experienced and knowledgeable, the transportations and drivers were excellent throughout. We paid the private tour supplement which was very reasonable and recommended for those who enjoys such. The standard class hotel in Istanbul was perfectly located and very comfortable. We upgraded hotels in Kusadasi and Cappadocia and again very recommended for the price difference - both the Charisma Deluxe and Mithra Cave hotels had great views and rooms. Also would suggest adding the Cappadocia Green Tour which we did and enjoyed. Umut and team were also very accommodating with domestic flights and worked around our preferences. Overall highly recommend Guide of Ephesus, this tour and Umut and his team for your upcoming travels in Turkey.Show moreTrip date: May 2025

- Yuvika· April 6th, 2025This tour was AMAZING! Every part of our trip was well-planned and executed. We are South Africans who visited Turkey for the first time. We were pleased with our hotels, transport and tour guides. Our tour guides were very knowledgeable and were able to answer our questions. We also had free time to relax and unwind, or do other activities, aside from the tour itself. The meals, especially the lunches, were absolutely delicious!! This is the third tour that I have booked through Tour Radar, and I have been pleased every single time! I would highly recommend Guide of Ephesus - Mr Umut was on top of everything - sending instructions/directions and answering questions immediately. Thanks to him, we had a stress-free and relaxing trip! I would like to convey my heartfelt thanks to every person involved in this tour - from the drivers to the guides to the hotel staff at every hotel we stayed at. They were all so helpful and made our trip a memorable one!!!Show moreTrip date: March 2025

Asked on April 28th, 2025Can I please get a room with someone of the same gender? If there are places that require an entry fee, can I choose not to enter if I don't want to? I would like to book the hot air balloon ride by myself. Also, for paragliding, I would prefer to book it on the spot if a female trainer is available. Is that possible? Will the guide pick me up and drop me off every day during the trip? Also, since I am a student, is there any student discount available?

Asked on April 24th, 2025can you tell us how much the dawn hot air balloon flights will cost?
- Guide of EphesusOperator•Written April 2025
for hot air balloon the prices are not stable and its changing daily thats why we cannot give a definite price untill 1 day left to flight for novadays the prices are minimum 350 us dollars by cash payment and for credit card payments balloon companies charging %10 extra commision. We recommend balloon bookings to Turkey during the tour if we will agree about price here we can book it here.
