Samos to Ephesus then to Istanbul with luggage

We are planning a trip at the end of May to Greece and Turkey. After spending a few nights in Samos, we want to take the morning ferry to Kusadasi (with our luggage), spend the day in and around Ephesus and then fly out of Izmir to Istanbul in the evening.

What is the best way to do this? I'd like to hire a car and driver to meet us at the port, (give us the tour in English) and then take us to the Izmir airport. Any suggestions on tour companies that offer such a service? We will be a party of 2 women (Aunt and Niece).

I have booked a day tour of Ephesus with Celsus Travel. We will be flying from Istanbul first thing in the morning and flying back late that night. They are picking us up at the Izmir airport, giving the tour, and then taking us back later that day.

I read really good reviews of Celsus on Tripadvisor and they have been responsive to my questions. My trip is still two weeks away so I can't give an actual review until then!
