People travel to learn more and to enjoy life better with their wast knowledge that they gain from their travels. They can easily do that with reading a book you ll say and believe me some do it that way and have a great imaginary world of their own. That is another story that we will not deal here.

We are here to talk about facts and real memories that you gain with traveling. Actually, we are here so YOU can talk about the real memories and experiences of your own in the near future after touring with us. To achieve this we want you to be ready for this travel experience and be ready to broaden your perspective about life and the way you see it. Because there is always something new added to ones brain i.e database that makes life more enjoyable or acceptable in many ways. 

I try to be an important part of the experiences counted above. I want you to understand what it means to be a local. I want you to have the same sight of a local at the place you are visiting, try to understand to be “in their boots”. 

Ephesus could be older than 2000 years old or there could be a 3500 years old Egyptian Obelisk in the middle of Istanbul. We want you to understand the reasons behind why there is an Egyptian Obelisk there and how old really the city of Ephesus is. These little stories is what you will remember at the end. The stories that catches the interest of your mind by catching interest of the eyes first.

“Our Tour Guides are carefully selected among the best ones” this is what you will read all the time when looking for a tour company. I go beyond and say that we only work with the elite of Tour Guides that shares the same passion and vision with us. This is why our tours are more like being hosted by locals than just traveling to see ancient ruins. 

Turkey is a great country to explore and we believe we will make it much more enjoyable for you by providing our services at the areas necessary. My aim is to be one of the pioneers of a new travel service concept with its bright minded and young staff that are willing to do their best to help people to travel to change the world. Because we believe “travel can change the world”...

Ephesus Tours From Istanbul

Istanbul is one of the most populated cities in the world and the biggest city in Turkey. A great center for commerce and an important historical center where Romans, Ottomans and many other civilizations lived.

Visiting Turkey as a globe traveler would surely bring you to Istanbul. Spending many days according to your taste you will be wondering what the rest of the country is like.

One of the best known location for a side day trip from Istanbul is Ephesus. The very best way to get there is by plane that will take you to Izmir. Otherwise the bus trip takes about 10 hours or driving distance is about 8 hours (I can drive you in 7 hours if you are brave enough :) ..). There are many companies that will fly to Izmir Airport from Istanbul airports. Depending on the time of the year the prices may change.

From Izmir to Ephesus

After you land in Izmir Airport you can find many Rent a Car options at the airport. If you wish to take public transportation there are busses that runs to the City Center (Konak area) and there you can take another bus or a taxi to the main bus station to find yourself a bus that goes to the town of Selcuk where ancient Ephesus is located. This option might take about 3 hours. From there you might need to walk or use taxi between the places of interest. Or you basically rent a taxi from the airport to take you to Ephesus, which might be an expensive option.

There is always an option of a professional touch to this excursion. You can take a look at this tour option from this link.

 


Ps: If you like animals, bring some cat food for the todays residences of Ephesus.
