Hi Tugrul!
We are finally home to Kelowna and getting over our jetlag.  
​We have arrived to some lovely fall weather with all the leaves turning  beautiful colors and bright clear days.  I promised I would send you an overview of our trip and R...... at R..... Travel has also asked about it so I have copied her on this email.


We really appreciated all the care that was taken to help us see as much of Turkey as we could in the 3 weeks.  There was quite a bit of travelling around but we wanted to see the diversity and we did!...
Best Regards

Thank you for your halloween card.  

I have been meaning to let you know that I have put 2 items on Trip Advisor regarding our tour we had with your company and especially our wonderful guide, Yesra.
(4 people on 25th August, 2010).
  
First of all, thank you to all, as we had a wonderful and memorable day in the port of Kusadasi on our recent Mediterranean cruise. 

We would not hesitate in recommending you to others travelling in your part of the world.  

I first posted a reply on Trip Advisor on September, 22nd, under "Ephesus Forum" - "tours Oct. 2nd full?". 

On October 11th, I posted a review on Tripadvisor (Posted on the wrong place)  under "things to do"- "Ancient City of Ephesus" and my review was titled "Ephesus Tour with Kusadasi Tours".   
I hope you read these reviews and that you feel they do justice to your very friendly, prompt and efficient service. 
To our driver and our guide, Yesra, we have nothing but praise for the knowledge, enthusiasim and great time they shared with us on our special day in port.  

This has proven to be one of our highlights, if not THE highlight of our trip.

Thanks for a wonder experience!
We booked an Ephesus tour with your company for October 4, and the experience exceeded our expectations.
Mehmet, our guide, met us at the port when we got off our ship, and gave a s day to remember. Mehmet was knowledgeable, witty and most helpful, answering our questions and pointing out the items at each site that we should not miss.
The traditional Turkish meal provided as part of the tour was delicious and provided in a beautiful courtyard.
We definitely would recommend your service to anyone. Thanks again!

We had a great tour on 9 May.  Special thanks to “Sky” and her driver. 
Her guidance and explanations were  outstanding.  Ephesus and Mary’s house were amazing and very spiritual.  The lunch was very authentic and delicious. 
Please pass our thanks to Sky.  Turkey was a highlight of our cruise.

I wanted to thank you for all your help in getting the tour arranged.
Some people were a little worried about not doing a NCL tour in Turkey,but after the tour everyone loved your beautiful country.
Every thing went as promised and Emre was a wonderful guide very knowledgeable and made the tour fun and enjoyable. The food was very good also.
We would highly recommend this tour to any one visiting Turkey
Thanks again

Port stop for us. What a treat.
We booked a tour with Kusadasi Tours.
She was there to meet us as we exited the port.
NCL was $175 and ours was $50 (eachgroup of 10).
We went straight to the Ephesus ruins, about an hour drive. Wonderful ruins.
The Terrace Houses are a definite must. Loved this place. Where there are typically 10,000+ visitors a day here, we literally had a 100+ Awesome! We wish our guide talked a bit more and gave us more history.
The shopping before and after the ruins was fun.
We bought a chess set ($30) and little trinkets.
Bargaining again is a must. This was our only chance for purchasing souvenirs. Lunch was included in our cost.
Nice buffet line with 8 or so dishes. Very nice. We sat through a carpet weaving demo (didn't like this at all and was surprised this was part of the tour as we had requested not to do it).
The apple tea, however, was great. Spent time at St. Johns basilica. Cool. Saw the Temple of Artemis, and then asked to go to a local grocery store for some treats. Great day.
