Ekrem took us to amazing locations and did an incredible job explaining the history and significance of each spot. They made us feel extremely comfortable and were very patient, kind and funny. The van was so spacious and was always filled with water for us. This tour was the highlight of our Turkey trip and we would recommend both Ekrem and Fati for anyone traveling to Cappadocia.
