Estuvimos en Kusadasi con mi mamá y hermana, contratamos el tour a Pamukkale y a Éfeso con Tour Altinkum y fue simplemente maravilloso!! Fue muy fácil agendarlos con la ayuda de Kerem, quien siempre estuvo disponible para ayudar y aclarar dudas. Estuvimos con Gonca, quien fue nuestra guía en español, e hizo que los tours fueran perfectos!! Tiene un excelente manejo del español y sabe muchísimo sobre toda la historia de los lugares, además de ser un encanto de persona. Contratamos con ellos los traslados desde y hacia el aeropuerto de Izmir y funcionó todo perfecto, siempre muy puntuales. Volveríamos a contratar todo con ellos, el servicio fue excepcional! Totalmente recomendados!

We met this tour guide and this driver. Their name is Riza and Okan. Riza who is the tour guide, was an excellent tour guide. The way he spoke English with us was very good. He did a good job explaining about the sites around Ephesus. For anyone who wants to come to Ephesus and wants a tour guide, choose Kusadasi Tour Company. RECOMMENDED!!!

An AMAZING tour with Mr. EMRE! We booked our tour with the Altinkum agency at the last minute. Since our initial tour was suddenly canceled by another agency, we urgently looked for another one. Altinkum promptly replied to our WhatsApp message and we booked a private tour. The tour included pick up transportation from the hotel and drop off at Izmir airport. The next day at the set time, the driver arrived. He was very polite and professional. At 1 pm, as we agreed, we met our tour guide Mr. EMRE! He is a professional tour guide with perfect English, historical knowledge, a warm sense of humor, and very polite. It is a lot to say, but in one phrase the tour was AMAZING! Highly recommend this agency and Mr. Emre.
