Trips in Izmir

Reviewed April 5, 2024

We had a wonderful 2 days in Izmir with Mr Mehmet.  We visited many historical sites and knowing the culture. We had nice turkish foods which we have never taste before our trips. He is a very friendly, humble and knowledgeable guide that we can depends on for our future plans coming to Turkey and not just Izmir alone. I will suggest any friends or relatives to Mr Mehmet if i have a chance to do so.

Thanks to Mehmet, my husband and I have had THE most amazing experience here in Turkey. Mehmet will go out of his way to ensure you get the best experience possible. He is very knowledgeable, courteous and resourceful. At the start of our trip we had a small hiccup which was no fault of Mehmets. He smoothed over our hiccup and turned it into the best experience we could have asked for or even paid for. I strongly recommend taking Mehmet's recommendations on location to see, restaurants or hotels to stay at. He really has your best interests at heart and wants you to enjoy your time here. I would 1000% recommend booking with him any time.

Fantastic guide; friendly, organised, well-informed with great English

Mehmet is fantastic. He guided me through Ephesus, Pergamon and points of interest in and around Izmir.  He has great historical knowledge, which he presents in the context of modern Turkish history as well.  His English is as good as mine.  He strikes the right balance between sticking to the plan, and being flexible about how the day is structured, and his driving is skilled and careful.  I travel a lot for work and always try to experience the local culture and history in the time I have available - this was my best experience so far. Thank you, Mehmet.
