About this experience
We reach to Ephesus. Ephesus, was the second largest city in the Roman Empire over 250.000 people in the 1st BC. The House of Virgin Mary, is a place where according to the beliefs of many people Mary, the mother of Jesus, spent her last years of her life. Sirince Village, this pretty old Greek orthodox village, 12 kms away from Ephesus, was once Cirkince (Ugly). After years, visitors understood that the village was not ugly at all and called it Sirince (Pretty). Temple of Artemis or Artemision, also known as the Temple of Diana, was a Greek Temple dedicated to the goddess Artemis. It was located in Ephesus and it was one the seven wonders of the world. The Isabey Mosque, constructed in 1374 – 1375, is one of the oldest and most impressive works of architectural art remaining from the Anatolian Beyliks. In the end of the tour, you will be transferred back to Kusadasi. Stores to Visit: Carpet Village Leather Factory

Great Day
We had an amazing time and the weather was perfect. Rose was a wonderful tour guide always taking us to the locations when there would be less people which we really appreciate and it just made the day so enjoyable. Definitely worth the trip.

Lucinda - Ephesus and Sirince Tour
This was amazing, I unfortunately cannot remember my guides name but she was amazing I think it was Serbu, she was very knowledgeable about all the places we visited but what I liked the most is that she knew exactly what time to take us to all the sites to avoid the crowds. Big ups for that. She was pleasant and did not mind to play photographer too. Sirince is a must see quaint town and is incorporated into this tour which is an added bonus. Lunch was great and overall this trip was amazing. The tour operator also communicated and was on time for pick-up. Definitely recommend it

Ephesus and Village tour
Very good service that we had through this company. We went to Ephesus first to see the ruins. For everyone that comes to Kuşadası you need to go to Ephesus and go with a guide they let you live the history of these days. Our guide erdem took very good care of us. 3 hours we spent there i guess. Than we went to the house of virgin marry. Than a nice open beufet restaurant. And at last we went to Şirince the wine Village. Erdem took us to wine tasting. Delicious fruit wines they had. Our guide was also good with my teen children. Keep going
Response from the operator: Hi, Thank you so much for taking the time to share this 5-star review with our team! We love hearing how much you enjoyed this tour. We know you have choices when it comes to your travel adventures, and it means the world to us that you’ve chosen to book an experience with our team. Thank you again for supporting our business and we hope you’ll visit us in the future!

Experience shortchanged!
The three of us booked this particular day-trip based on the excellent reviews it received and the fact that it included an additional stop at the Sirince village. However, our experience could only be at best described as average because we genuinely felt that we were shortchanged. Contrary to the selected start time of 8.30 am, we were informed on the day before that our pickup would be at 9.40 am due to the later opening time of tourist sites because of Covid-19 pandemic. Whilst we accepted this later start time as unavoidable, we found it unbelievable that our entire day-trip of 9 hours (as advertised) lasted only, if not under, 5 hours. We were last to be picked up from our hotel at 9.40 am and first to be dropped back off at our hotel at around 2.30 pm. It was definitely a half day-trip, and not the full-day trip of 9 hours as advertised. It would be hard pressed to solely justify this ‘shorter’ day trip on the lower turnout (5 people in total) as the day- trip was meant to be in a small-group to begin with. We visited every single tourist site as advertised for the day-trip but felt rushed through at every single stop. For example, we were in the Ancient City of Ephesus for just 1 hour as opposed to the advertised 2 hours and around 30 minutes in the Sirince village as opposed to the advertised 1.30 hours. Lunchtime was definitely a rush. The highlight of the day-trip was meant to be the Ancient City of Ephesus but we ended up spending only an hour there. That’s a big disappointment! All these stemmed from the fact that the two German participants in the group who initially booked the half-day Ephesus tour ‘suddenly’ decided to switch to the full-day tour that the three of us had booked (this was told to us by the tour guide himself at the first stop of Isa Bey mosque) and the two Germans had to undergo their Covid-19 test at 3 pm that day. This was later ‘confirmed’ by the telephone conversations undertaken by the tour guide with either the hotel where the two Germans were staying or the test centre that they had their Covid-19 test booked in in an attempt to ‘defer’ their test appointment time. Why would the tour operator, Peron Tour, try to please the two Germans at the expense of three of us is really mind boggling? We were contacted, via text message, two days later by the office of Peron Tour, for our feedback of the day-trip. We gave our fair feedback and highlighted the shortchange but heard nothing back.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to write such a positive review for us. I love to read that you enjoyed all the destinations and activities 100%. Because this is exactly what we want for you and our visitors.

Why this scores 60
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Small Group Ephesus & Sirince Village Tour From Kusadasi / Selcuk: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kusadasi.
How much does Small Group Ephesus & Sirince Village Tour From Kusadasi / Selcuk cost?
+
Prices start at $148 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 Small Group Ephesus & Sirince Village Tour From Kusadasi / Selcuk take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Small Group Ephesus & Sirince Village Tour From Kusadasi / Selcuk worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 7 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 Small Group Ephesus & Sirince Village Tour From Kusadasi / Selcuk?
+
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 Small Group Ephesus & Sirince Village Tour From Kusadasi / Selcuk suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Small Group Ephesus & Sirince Village Tour From Kusadasi / Selcuk?
+
Around 2 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Small Group Ephesus & Sirince Village Tour From Kusadasi / Selcuk 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 FOR CRUISERS: Ephesus & Virgin Mary Tour with ENTRY TICKET+LUNCH, Ephesus Temple of Artemis and House of Mary Private Half Day Tour, Ephesus and Temple of Artemis Private Tour from Kusadasi Port. 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.
