Before you book

Ephesus tour questions

How much time do I need at Ephesus?

Allow two to three hours for the downhill walk to the Library of Celsus and Great Theatre.

Private Ephesus cruise tour

Are entrance tickets included on shore excursions?

Your choice. Add the entrance tickets at the official price when you book, or pay them at the gate; the tour page shows both prices.

Can I visit Ephesus from Istanbul in one day?

Yes. Fly to İzmir, visit Ephesus with a guide and lunch, then fly back the same day.

Ephesus day trip by plane

Group or private tour: what is the difference?

A group tour shares the guide and vehicle with other travellers on a fixed route, so it costs less per person. A private tour is only your party, with your own guide and vehicle and flexible timing.
