      The Temple of Artemis is known as one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world.it had tremendous dimensions: 127 columns of each 17,5 meters high.

      This pretty old Orthodox village, 12 km away from Ephesus and 30 km from Kusadasi, was once Cirkince ("ugly").

    Ephesus tour with Oznur

    Oznur was amazing! We went on a private tour with 5 ladies and she did everything we wanted. We went up to Virgin Mary then to Ephesus ancient town. We had a great lunch and viewed carpets, come with your measurements because the carpets are beautiful and ship for free with no tariffs. Then we went to a shopping place to get goodies including delicious pomegranate concentrate. Finally we saw the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus (Turkey), a seventh wonder of the world ancient. We were able to do more but decided to go back to our ship, book with them and ask for Oznur. She got us the best deals and did not push us to buy anything- traveling as single females that was important.

    Response from the operator: It’s wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed your day with Oznur! Her flexibility, warm personality, and thoughtful approach clearly made your private tour comfortable and enjoyable from the House of the Virgin Mary and Ephesus to the local lunch, carpets, and Temple of Artemis. We’re especially glad you felt comfortable throughout the shopping experiences and never felt pressured. Thank you for recommending Oznur and Neopolis Travel!

    Private Guide & Driver Ephesus Tour from Kusadası Port: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Selçuk.

    How much does Private Guide & Driver Ephesus Tour from Kusadası Port cost?

    +

    Prices start at $29 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Selçuk usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Guide & Driver Ephesus Tour from Kusadası Port take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 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 Selçuk is not rushed.

    Is Private Guide & Driver Ephesus Tour from Kusadası Port worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Selçuk, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Guide & Driver Ephesus Tour from Kusadası Port?

    +

    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 Private Guide & Driver Ephesus Tour from Kusadası Port suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Guide & Driver Ephesus Tour from Kusadası Port?

    +

    Around 1 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 Selçuk 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 Selçuk and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Guide & Driver Ephesus Tour from Kusadası Port 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 Selçuk 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 Selçuk?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Selçuk 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: Skip The Lines PRIVATE EPHESUS TOUR &On Time Return, PRIVATE TOUR FOR CRUISERS: Mary's House (Meryemana) and Ephesus. 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 Selçuk?

    +

    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 Selçuk?

    +

    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.
