Above Answer in Swift 4:

tapGesture = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(self.textViewTapped(recognizer:)))
textView.addGestureRecognizer(tapGesture)

@objc func textViewTapped(recognizer: UITapGestureRecognizer) {
    if recognizer.state == .ended {     
        textView.isEditable = true
        textView.becomeFirstResponder()

        let location = recognizer.location(in: textView)
        if let position = textView.closestPosition(to: location) {
            let uiTextRange = textView.textRange(from: position, to: position)

            if let start = uiTextRange?.start, let end = uiTextRange?.end {
                let loc = textView.offset(from: textView.beginningOfDocument, to: position)
                let length = textView.offset(from: start, to: end)

                textView.selectedRange = NSMakeRange(loc, length)

            }
        }
    }
}

- (void) editTextRecognizerTabbed:(UITapGestureRecognizer *) aRecognizer
{
    if (aRecognizer.state==UIGestureRecognizerStateEnded)
    {
        //Not sure if you need all this, but just carrying it forward from your code snippet
        textview.editable = YES;
        textview.dataDetectorTypes = UIDataDetectorTypeNone;
        [textview becomeFirstResponder];

        //Consider replacing self.view here with whatever view you want the point within
        CGPoint point = [aRecognizer locationInView:self.view];
        UITextPosition * position=[textView closestPositionToPoint:point];
        [textView setSelectedTextRange:[textView textRangeFromPosition:position toPosition:position]];
    }
}
