Great time in Kusadasi! - Wow, what a great experience cycling through the countryside of Turkey and learning of the local culture along the way. Every detail was thought through, from the initial meet-up to the final drop-off, Emre did a fabulous job of guiding us through the bike ride portion and the tour through Ephesus. Ephesus is a must see and we had great time learning about the history of the city and seeing the impressive ruins in the company of a knowledgeable guide who helped us understand the history and significance of Ephesus as well as how it fit into the ancient world.

Amazing Host & Tour Guide - Emre is absolutely AMAZING! We had such a fabulous day! Easy to find off the cruise ship and his tour is so personal! We were able to see so much of the area on a sheet time period. We biked 15 miles and enjoyed some Turkish Tea and bread….ventured to a small village later in the day to meet locals and enjoy a fabulous farm to table lunch and wine tasting (delicious). Learned about the process involved in creating the beautiful Turkish rugs seen throughout the area. Ended with a 1.5 hour extremely informative tour of Ephesus and a fabulous drive back to port. The accommodations were all high end (transport, bikes, food etc). Driver was on point and first class in every way (my husband mentioned he didn’t like wine and driver showed up with a beer for him!) Higjly recommend…worth every penny!!

Loved this tour! - Our group had the best time riding through the country side, it was beautiful. Our snack of bread and olive were great, grapes from the vineyard were very good and the farm lunch was amazing. Ending with Ephesus was perfect. I will use this tour group when I come back and highly recommend them.

Do yourself a favor and GO (10/5 experience) - This was my favorite thing that I did during my entire Turkey and Greece vacation. I HIGHLY recommend this experience if you’re in the area. We were lucky enough to travel with the owner Emre who is extremely personable and passionate about everything he does whether it’s biking or teaching you about the various aspects of Turkey. The bike ride was absolutely amazing and you can make it as difficult as you would like because you’re on an e-bike. It was really special because we would stop by the side of the farms we were biking through and pick and eat fresh grapes, chestnuts, and figs. We were taken to the most beautiful spot for breakfast where we were able to eat as much as we wanted to pet the resident cats. We were then able to go to the vineyard across from where the bikes were kept and get some wine that we were able to taste at the rug school. I loved learning about the rug making and was not pressured into buying anything. The people there are so passionate about their craft and want you to learn. We ended the day in Ephesus where Emre was excellently versed in the history. I left feeling like we had a friend in Turkey and didn’t want to leave. Do yourself a favor and book this experience. It is 100% worth every penny and more.

WHAT AN AMAZING DAY!!! - WOW!! What an unforgettable day!! 🌟 I can’t recommend this excursion enough — it was truly one of the BEST experiences of our entire trip! 🇹🇷✨ I’ll admit, I was a little skeptical at first, but the moment we met our guide Emre, all of that disappeared. He was absolutely incredible — friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel completely at ease from the start. 🙌 Riding through the beautiful countryside 🚴‍♀️🍃, stopping along the way to enjoy fresh grapes and figs straight from the vine 🍇🌿, was pure magic. After the ride, we visited a local farm where we were treated to an amazing meal paired with delicious local beer and wine 🍽️🍷 — the perfect ending to a perfect day! I would visit Turkey again just for this experience alone! ❤️
👉 BOOK THIS EXCURSION — you will NOT regret it!! 🌍🔥

Great Ebike ride through vineyards with private group - Got off the Carnival Miracle cruise ship and met our guide at Starbucks right after leaving ship and going through shops. He was excellent to hang out with all day and sooo knowledgeable and personable. The Ebikes were very good and easy to navigate. The countryside and value of the days experience were 10/10. It was the best excursion that we did - much better than the Carnival Excursions. I highly recommend this excursion. Pls don hesitate to take this trip!

Fantastic, highly recommend! - My husband and I had a wonderful day with Emre. We wanted to do something a bit different to the normal touristy tours and Emre delivered that. We started with our bike tour, riding through some lovely scenery, stopping along the way to pick some grapes and figs. We went to a local cafe with amazing views, did some wine tasting, enjoyed a lovely lunch, learnt about rug making and did an afternoon tour of Ephesus which was amazing. Emre was very easy company and very informative on all things Turkey. To top off the day we stopped at a beautiful gallery, enjoyed some house wine on the rooftop and watched the sunset. A magical end to a fantastic day. I would highly recommend doing this tour or any other tour Emre offers.

Had an amazing time with... - Had an amazing time with Mithat. He looked after my husband and I from the minute we arrived. Good communication from the minute we booked. Very informative and a genuine lovely guy. The biking was great, even tasting local produce along the way. We were then taken for lunch in a fabulous spotless van, finally finishing with a tour around Ephesus. Was an unforgettable experience and definitely recommend doing.
