“TAY was a very good tour guide. Everything was as promised with added stops at a ceramic and carpet art studio. Beautiful products and very informative, as they show you how they are made. However, there is some pressure to purchase these very beautiful and expensive items. Lunch was good, was next to the carpet factory. We're given delicious cold apple tea. All in all this tour is perfect for a day trip. I do recommend this tour without hesitation. Small group of 4 with guide and driver in comfortable van.”

Afterwards we had a very tasty meal followed by an interesting tour of a carpet manufacturer. Some people requested a stop at a leather manufacturer and they gave us drinks and a fashion show while we learned about their product. A very full day.”

“We had an excellent trip with Seyhan, collected from our hotel only an hour after I booked the trip, in an air conditioned car. I booked the trip for myself and my 2 children (aged 8 and 13). My son (8) had a conversation about Greek and Roman Gods with Seyhan. Seyhan took us around a couple of local shops, where my son did some clay modelling with the "master" and we watched a fashion show at the leather shop. Seyhan told me my son could get in to Ephesus for free if had proof of age, so this is worth noting (age 8 and under). He was very informative…”
