Tripadvisor Review about our Ephesus Tour Guide: Mehmet Cibikci

We have just receved the following tripadvisor comment for our Ephesus Tour Guide : Mehmet Cibkci and driver Samet : We almost have 1260 reviews on our tripadvisor page.
If I had to pick one favorite day of our one month vacation in September 2013, it would be our day at Ephesus we booked with Denizhan Pekoz TransBalkan Tours. Our group of 4 able adults docked at Izmir Port and only had a 5.5 hours stop. Since Izmir is 1 hour 15min drive to Ephesus, we only had 3 hours to tour. Many ship and private tours could/would not accommodate my request. We wanted to see the Ancient City of Ephesus, INSIDE the Terrace Houses with a very short stop at Mary's house or Temple of Artemis. We did not want the carpet or leather factory tour or lunch since our time was short. Our driver was Samet and guide was Mehmet. They were both very nice.
Mehmet picked us up in a new air conditioned touring van & brought water. He was so knowledgeable on many world and local topics, spoke very good English and passionate about his country, that we almost missed the beautiful countryside out the window! (Rolling green hills with fruit, nuts, olives and agriculture). We had a brief stop at the Temple of Artemis which was excellent. We then went to the Ephesus city ruins which is very large. Be sure to gain entrance to the 'Terrace Houses'. This is an extra fee and well worth it!! The preservation of the frescos, mosaics and indoor plumbing/heating is incredible as is the Celsus Library. We have been to Pompeii and Athens, but Turkey has taken far better care with their historic sites. We were so impressed we would definitely come back to Turkey and do much more exploring with the same guide. This was our hottest day all month so be sure to bring a hat and sunscreen.
Thanks again to Samet and Mehmet for the great day! It was even better than I hoped!

Kusadasi means the island of birds. The name is derived from a small island called Pigeon island near the town. In the Medieval times Venetian and Genoese merchants called this place "Scalanuova" (New Pier). It was captured by the Ottomans in 1413 and was named as Kusadası in honor of Pigeon Island, which has many bird nests. Until 1950s, Kusadasi was a small fishing village with olive fields and leather tanneries. After the arrival of holidaymakers, hotels and cruise ships. The town's population rises to half a million people during the summer months.

Many travelers to Western Turkey choose Kusadasi as a base to visit the archaeological and biblical sites of Ephesus. Ephesus is considered among the most important archaeological sites in the world.
Ephesus tours from Kusadasi Hotels: If you are exploring Turkey, you should definitely make time to visit this unique and unforgettable destination... After all, when you will have the opportunity to walk the well preserved streets of a Greco-Roman city.
​

Is it worth visiting Kusadasi?
Yes! Kusadasi is definitely worth visiting. With its magnificent view of the Aegean Sea, its restaurants and cafes, its proximity to the Ancient City of Ephesus and the House of the Virgin Mary. Ephesus is one of the most important reasons why Kusadası is a famous tourism center. The ruins of the fourth largest Roman city, Ephesus, lie just outside Kusadasi and are among the best-preserved ancient Greco-Roman ruins excavated in the world.

Kusadasi Airport

In Kusadasi, travelers should be aware that the town does not have its own airport. The nearest airport to Kusadasi is the Izmir Airport, located just a one-hour drive away. This proximity offers a convenient transportation option for those flying into the region. Visitors arriving at Izmir Airport can easily access Kusadasi by car, bus, or taxi, making the journey seamless and efficient. It is recommended for travelers to plan their transportation in advance to ensure a smooth transition from Izmir airport to Kusadasi.
​Is Ephesus in Kusadasi Turkey?
Kusadasi and Ephesus are two different places. Ephesus is an ancient city located 20 kilometers from Kusadasi. Ephesus is a popular destination for travelers visiting Kusadasi. Kusadasi serves as a gateway to the mesmerizing ancient city of Ephesus, renowned for its grandeur and historical significance, was once a flourishing Roman metropolis, and today it attracts countless visitors from around the world. As you wander through its well-preserved ruins, you'll be transported back in time, marveling at the magnificence of iconic landmarks like the Library of Celsus and the Great Theatre. Kusadasi's proximity to Ephesus makes it an ideal base to explore the wonders of this archaeological treasure and soak up the rich history it holds.

Is Izmir or Kusadasi better?
We recommend our guests to stay in Kusadası instead of İzmir. Izmir is a big city with a big traffic problem. It takes approximately 1 hour by car from Izmir Airport to Kusadasi. There are many hotels and many seaside restaurants and cafes in Kusadasi. It takes less than 25 minutes to reach Ephesus by car from Kusadasi, whereas it takes more than an hour from Izmir. Kusadasi is quaint coastal town and also the gateway to the breathtaking Ephesus, home to some of the most well-preserved Roman ruins in the world.

В момента руините му са важна туристическа атракция, посещават се предимно от круизни кораби, които спират на пристанището на Кушадасъ, разположено на 20 км. Това е голям град, който все още не е напълно разкопан, но това, което може да се види, дава известна представа за първоначалния му блясък.

Обиколката включва и посещение на Къщата на Дева Мария, която е мястото, където Девата е прекарала последните дни от живота си и която сега е място за поклонение на християни от цял свят.

* За туристи, които не желаят да посетят Къщата на Дева Мария. Посещението на Къщата на Дева Мария може да бъде заменено с базиликата Свети Йоан или Археологическия музей на Ефес.
