Traveler Reviews
What can we say? Gufte was amazing! Very knowledgeable in the local history and very personable; nothing was too much trouble. The itinerary was comprehensive, with flexibility built in; eg we said we would like to sample the fruit wines, a speciality of Sirence, and this was accommodated with no problem. Excellent English. We highly recommend Puerto Travel for a tour of Ephesus and the surrounds.

The driver was very punctual and drove us from Izmir to the meeting point in Selçuk. The guide was very nice and could explain a lot of things about the historical places We visited also a Lamb leather fashion shop and a ceramic workshop. It was really interesting.
