Are you heading to Kusadasi Cruise Port and want to visit Ephesus without the rush of large tour groups? This Private Ephesus Tour from Kusadasi cruise port is designed especially for you who value flexibility, comfort, and in-depth cultural experiences.


Your private guide will greet you directly at Kusadasi Cruise Port and lead you to your private, air-conditioned vehicle. From there, your day begins with a journey to one of the most important archaeological sites in the world: Ephesus Ancient City

Known as one of the best-preserved Roman cities, Ephesus offers breathtaking ruins, monumental architecture, and deep historical significance. The city is mentioned multiple times in the New Testament and was one of the key locations where Saint Paul preached.

During your guided visit, you’ll walk along ancient marble streets, visit the Celsus Library, Great Theater, and Hadrian’s Temple, and -optionally- explore the Terrace Houses.

 

These elite Roman residences showcase colorful wall frescoes, intricate floor mosaics, and one of the earliest known central heating systems. It requires a separate entrance ticket and is optional for visitors.


After visiting Ephesus, your next stop will be the House of the Virgin Mary, a peaceful hilltop sanctuary believed to be where Mary, mother of Jesus, spent her final years.


This sacred site is visited by pilgrims from around the world and holds great spiritual importance for both Christians and Muslims.


Following your visit, you’ll enjoy a relaxing lunch at a local Turkish restaurant of your choice - known for authentic flavors and warm hospitality.

After lunch, you’ll have free time to explore local artisan shops, buy handmade souvenirs, or enjoy a walk through the town before returning to the port.


At the end of your tour, you’ll be comfortably dropped off at Kusadasi Cruise Port, well in time for your ship’s departure. We always ensure timely returns with a stress-free experience.
