Ephesus private tours from Kusadasi and Izmir
Ephesus deserves a licensed guide — the Library of Celsus, Great Theatre and Terrace Houses come alive with context. We run private tours from Kusadasi (cruise port), Izmir airport and Selcuk hotels with timing that avoids midday heat and ship crowds.
Cruise shore excursions
We track your ship schedule, meet at the terminal and return with buffer time. Virgin Mary House and Sirince village fit when port hours allow. Never book generic buses that ignore all-aboard times.
Ephesus tickets and Terrace Houses
Terrace Houses require a separate ticket but show intact Roman frescoes — worth it for history lovers. Guides handle tickets and explain optional add-ons before you enter.
Ephesus tour prices and duration
Half-day private Ephesus tours from Kusadasi start around $90–130 per person for two travelers; full-day routes adding Virgin Mary House and Sirince run higher. Includes licensed guide, private vehicle and port or hotel pickup. Entrance fees are listed separately in your quote for transparency.
Combining Ephesus with Pamukkale or the coast
Many travelers pair Ephesus with Pamukkale terraces in a two-day Aegean loop or continue to Bodrum and Antalya. Our Istanbul–Ephesus–Pamukkale package coordinates domestic flights and guides in each city — ask for a custom quote if you prefer day tours only.
