We have been in Turkey last October. We have arranged Istanbul part by ourself. Before arrive Turkey, I searched Ephesus ancient city on the internet and I said that it has to be visited. Then we start to emailing with Mr Kaplan about the Ephesus. He has answered all my questions honestly and advised a few options. Then we booked this package with really reasonable price. The guides were really informative and friendly especially Mr Nizam in Ephesus.
Just a note; if you visit Turkey, you have to try Raki and Balik :D It was excelent night in Kusadasi.
Thanks again Coskun for everything.

It was an excellent trip to discover the Aegean Coast of Turkey!...
We went this tour with the group of my friends, We started to visit the historical ruins and the cities one by one with a professional tour guide that we had an answer to all our quiestions. The service was very good from beginning to end of the package, hotel was in Kusadasi and the location was very nice to go to beachs or restaurant for dinners or walking on the sea site during the night after the tour. It was an excellent trip. Thank to Mr. Senol for halping us to book this tour with a good service and also good price.
Much better history with a professional tour guide

We went this tour with a small group during our vacation in Istanbul. It was very nice to have an information from the tour guide instead of reading about the sites. Tour guide was explaining and we were asking then there was a many questions that you will never think about. It was good and enjoyable that to join with a different people during the day to share a point.

Great Experience for the Ancient Cities for Us. Me and girl friends. We went to this tour. Turkey Travel Bazaar staff picked us up in the afternoon to fly from Istanbul to Izmir. When we arrived in Izmir airport we needed a transfer from Izmir airport to our hotel in Kusadasi.
There a staff who said that waiting for us to take as to the hotel in Kusadasi. Good at first point and ontime, about one our driving we arrive at the hotel while we were check in to the hotel, he (Ahmet, his name was) was there and then I didnt see him untill last part of the package which takes us to the airport back to fly from Izmir to Istanbul. He was there again.
This was nice to know the person who picks you up and bring to place you go. After our check in to hotel, it was la leisure and resting for us. Lately we went out to walk around, The hotel location was great to walk around and return to hotel. We walked to sea and had dinner, there was many restaurants for differents taste of locals and also hotel has a restaurant. That was good during the late night, if you want some thing it was coming.
Next day, morming after breakfast, we picked up from hotel at 08:30 - 35 am for the tour of Ephesus Ancient city, Virgin Mary Church and the ruins around the Ephesus Ancient City. We taken to the meeting point to meet with group and tour guide, the driving was about 20 - 30 minutes from Kusadasi to Selcuk where we met with tour guide and others.
When every one come together, tour started at 09:15 - 30 by a drive from Selcuk to Ephesus Ancient City. It was a great site to see. We enter from southern start to walk in the city and listen the history and alsa asking to the questions, guide was great knowledgeable and aswering to the questions even about the rows of on the ruins. It was about two hours walking and visiting in Ephesus.
After Ephesus Ancient City, driving to Virgin Mary House to visit about 10 minutes maybe little more. After we arrived at the Mary house, tour guide explained the history and gave us time to get in and pray after it was about 30 - 40 minutes, I found him in the meeting point that he was answering to the question of why she had been come here.
For a while, we departed from there to Lunch in a restaurant. It was huge, geate restaurant that the service was open buffet and there was perhaps, 15 - 20 different meses and 10 different meals 5 - 6 different turkish desserts. Lunch was great.
After lunch, We had drive to Temple of Artemis. After arrive tour guide explained the history of Temple, and answer to the question and then we went to the first mosque of Anatolia which is Isabeymosque. It was a great mosque with its history and architecture. After the tour we returned back to Hotel. It was good that tour finished about 16:00 pm and then when you return to hotel, there was still time to get into sea to swim.
After arrival at the hotel, we continue to beach to swim, relax and get ten. It was good really.
Next day, we picked up from hotel after breakfast for Hierapolis ( It was about 2,5 hours driving. We arrived in Pamukkale and started to the touring of Hierapolis with Necropolis which is infront of the city of Hierapolis and then visiting the Roman Baths, Domitian Gate, Latrina, Oil Factory, Frontinus Street, Agora, Byzantium Gate, Triton Fountain, Cathedral, Apollon Temple, Plutonium, Theater and Cleopatra Antique Pool. At the end of the tour, we had time to swim in the Pool of Cleopatra. It was a thermal water good for health and feeling refreshed. And then return to hotel in Kusadasi. It was about 20:00 pm when we arrived. We had little rest and went out for dinner. It was good to have time to good out for dinner and walk in the night in Kusadasu.
Next day, tour started with hotel pick up again and we visit the Lycian cities of Priene, Miletus didyma. Day was started at 08:30 am and we returned to hotel at 18:30 - 19:00 pm again. I think It was little more to discover the Ancient cities for 3 days long, but tour was also great because it was with same tour guide 3 days long, with same driver, kind of private tour we had done.
Next day, we picked up from hotel for the last step of the package to fly back to Istanbul and also transferred to our hotel in Istanbul.
I was a great trip to discover the all the ruins of Ancient world.
