Ephesus Ancient City
After greeting, we will have a 2-minute drive to the Ephesus area to visit one of the main highlights in Turkey. Ephesus, one of the 12 cities of Ionian League (an ancient Greek district on the western coast of Asia Minor) is located near Izmir. As a port city it was a major departure point for trade routes into Asia Minor. Walk through history along marble streets lined with wonderful public buildings. Among them are the Baths of Scholastica and the Library of Celsus (it was built in the beginning of the 2nd century A.D. by Gaius Julius Aquila to be a memorial to his father Gaius Julius Celsus Polemanus, the proconsul of Province of Asia). The Temple of Hadrian and The Grand Theater are two of the most impressive buildings in Ephesus. The Grand theatre was built in the 3rd century B.C and it was later expanded to 24.000 spectators by the Romans in the 1st century A.D.

The House of the Virgin Mary
Our next stop is The House of Virgin Mary, located in the Aladag Mountains 5 miles away from Ephesus. At the third Ecumenical Council in 431 AD in Ephesus, it was claimed that Mary came to Ephesus with St. John in 37 A.D. and lived there until her death in 48 A.D. After the discovery of the house, the Archbishop of Izmir declared it as a place of pilgrimage in 1892. On July 26, 1967, Pope Paul VI visited this place and prayed there.

Awesome day visiting Turkey
We were 2 people in a very comfortable vehicle for a beautiful day with Zegnep. Marys House before the crowds appeared. Followed by Ephesus where we saw a new display since we had been there so many times before, Next we visited SIrince, a beautiful town we had visited before. We were on our own and enjoyed it again. Final stop was Temple of Artemis - we were so tired we took photos from the vehicle with the driver lining up the car for us. Both driver and guide were awesome.

Our favorite day of the entire trip!
This tour was one of our favorites of all time. Our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly. I cannot even put into words how incredible the village of Sirince is. Please make sure to visit Hera Sirince while you are there. The Ephesus tour is mind-blowing. We went in July, and neck fans, water, and even an umbrella were a must. The transportation was lovely and air-conditioned.

An amazing experience and tour in Kusadasi.
We had a wonderful experience with our guide, Sefa. The tour was completely private for me and my husband and customized (time wise) . We loved our all inclusive tour to Ephesus, the House of Virgin Mary and a trip to the village of Sirince. We learned a lot about the history, Greek mythology and Turkish culture; had a wonderful lunch at a Turkish restaurant and had Turkish coffee during our visit to a lovely village of Sirince. Sefa was very knowledgeable, patient and accommodating during our wine tasting and shopping at the village. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kusadasi.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Kusadasi: Private 4-Stop Shore Excursion with Lunch and Tickets: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kusadasi.
How much does Kusadasi: Private 4-Stop Shore Excursion with Lunch and Tickets cost?
+
Prices start at $159 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kusadasi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Kusadasi: Private 4-Stop Shore Excursion with Lunch and Tickets take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kusadasi is not rushed.
Is Kusadasi: Private 4-Stop Shore Excursion with Lunch and Tickets worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 38 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kusadasi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Kusadasi: Private 4-Stop Shore Excursion with Lunch and Tickets?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Kusadasi: Private 4-Stop Shore Excursion with Lunch and Tickets suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Kusadasi: Private 4-Stop Shore Excursion with Lunch and Tickets?
+
Around 13 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kusadasi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kusadasi and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Kusadasi: Private 4-Stop Shore Excursion with Lunch and Tickets start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kusadasi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kusadasi?
+
On Outty we rank every Kusadasi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include PRIVATE EPHESUS TOUR FOR CRUISERS: On-time Return and Skip-Line, FOR CRUISERS: Ephesus & Virgin Mary Tour with Entry Fees & Lunch, FOR CRUISERS: Skip The Lines PRIVATE EPHESUS TOUR &On Time Return. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kusadasi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kusadasi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
