For those who love ancient history
I like ancient history so I liked seeing the cities of Ephesus, Prime, and Miletus. Our guide, Güfte, helped paint the picture of the cities in ancient times and give us a better understanding. Our driver, Ogün, was always punctual and drive very safely.

Private Ephesus Tour
We met Huseyin, our guide on arrival at Izmir airport and had the day with him to see Ephesus. We had such a lovely time with Huseyin, learning about the region and its sights He took very good care of us, away from the crowds and was very friendly yet professional.
Huseyin took us to a very quaint and cute local restaurant for lunch which was peaceful and had excellent local Anatolian food.
Ephesus was a huge awe inspiring site definitely worth visiting.
Thank you for the nice time and we wish Huseyin all the best for his future.

Seven churche , Pamukkale. A group of 5 ladies
We did The seven churches and Pamukkale. Guftee was our tour lady. She was patient, knowledgeable, attentive, caring and much more. I believe she does mix groups but, if is a group of ladies , she’s your girl.
Ogun was our driver. He also was caring attentive toward us. He kept cold water bottles in a cooler for us at all time. Overall, puerto agency is your travel agency.

This is the second tour we booked with Puerto Travel Turkey.
Gufte is amazing! We were very happy the first tour we booked with the company in 2022 that we decided to use them again. She's very knowledgeable, warm and super patient with all of us and catered to our needs. Very flexible in adjusting the schedule.
She made it very memorable for all of us. Highly recommend her and her company.

Smooth and history packed guided tour
Everything was more than we imagined and we knew it will be beautiful but still, it exceeded all expectations in actual reality 😊
The tour driver and our guide, Betul(betty), were easy to talk to and betul was informative of the ancient history and about her country, Turkey. She added some side stories such as how one local desert came about and also helped us with the shopping locations when our tour ended.
The tour company was very responsive right from the start, very helpful and patient with us that we felt safe right away even before the trip started. Definitely going back to Turkey and getting the other tours from Puerto Travels.

8 Days Cappadocia, Ephesus, Pamukkale and Antalya Tour
An Archeological Tour
We asked Puerto Travel to design a tour which had(in my opinion) the most important archeological sites. This would include Mt. Nemrut, Göbekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe. I also wanted to visit Ankara and Istanbul. The trip worked very well. I was picked at the programmed time, and we(my wife and I) were able to see all the sites. They were very attentive to the needs of my wife, who has mobility probems. Additionally, they chose guides who were very knowledgeable about the history of the sites we visited. In summary, they were able to taylor our trip to the requirements we put forth, booking the appropriate flights in order to insure that we could make the most out of the limited time we had.This is our second time using this tour company and I would contract them again in a heartbeat.

Ephesus Tour from Kusadasi
Great way to see Ephesus and other historical sights in comfort
We highly recommend taking this tour if you want to see historical sights from Kusadasi. We were picked up from our hotel in a modern air/conditioned minivan with a driver and guide and were happy to find we were the only ones so it was like a private tour! We visited the Virgin Mary House, the incredible city of Ephesus, Library of Celcus and the Temple of Artemis. We also stopped at a traditional pottery making place that was very interesting. We had time for a delicious lunch so in total it was about 6 hours, plenty of time. Our guide Huseyin was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of information about the places we visited and took great photos of us in each location. It was a lovely hassle free way to see the ancient sights in comfort and style.

Tour Pamukkale and Ephesus. You won’t regret this tour!
If I could give Gufte more than 5 stars I would! Gufte is a very knowledgeable guide whose pride in modern Türkiye, its many faceted culture & ancient histories made touring a relaxing & stress free experience. Personable & with good humour, Gufte’s warm & truly friendly personality made us at ease & happy to spend two days touring with her. For Gufte nothing was too much trouble or not open for discussion. A highly recommended guide with an excellent driver!
