tourist satisfaction in foreign literature is the subject of many studies; a limited number of studies
were found in the Turkish literature.Evaluation of the guidance service provided in places visited by
millions of tourists every year, such as the Ancient City of Ephesus, is a necessity in order to meet the
ever-changing market expectations. In line with this scope, the aim of the study is to reveal the effect
of the performance of TRs on the satisfaction of tourists. Questionnaire technique, one of the
quantitative research methods, was used in the study. The population of the research consists of
domestic tourists visiting Ephesus between July and September 2021. As a sample, the easy sampling
method, which is one of the non-probabilistic sampling methods, was preferred and a total of 399
data were collected. The obtained data were analyzed by the least squares method and and structural
equation modeling. According to the results of the analysis, entertainment introduction skill,
