I really enjoy this theme you've got going on in your web page. What is the name of the template by the way? I was thinking of using this style for the site I am going to construct for my school project.

Will I have trouble getting a guide at the site when I get there? What should I expect to pay. There are 7 of us.

Hi

Thank you for your reply. Just to clarify further, for entrance pass to Ephesus, do I choose the Museum Pass The Aegean?

3/7/2017 11:40:03 pm

For Ephesus ticket only, please click E-Bilet and choose Efes Orenyeri (40tl)

3/7/2017 11:38:12 pm

Museum Pass Aegean includes visits to many sites in Izmir, Aydin and Mugla. If you are going to stay in the Aegean several days and want to visit other sites besides Ephesus than we recommend to buy Museum Pass Aegean.

If you want to see only Ephesus than just buy the Efes Orenyeri ticket.

You do not need prepruchase Ephesus ticket, there is never long lines at the sites.

Thank you very much for the info. I will contact you once I have confirm my trip to Ephesus.

Planing to visit this Sunday the house of Virgin Mary and Artemis temple. What is the cost for the day tour from Airport to Airport pick up and drop. I will be staying at Istanbul but will fly on my own. I have booked the flight which reaches around 10 am and return flight which leave around 430 pm. May need a taxi or will join in a coach of sight seeing. Tell me the price and discount if any. One person one time food

Are there any discounts on tickets for disabled or elderly people?

12/15/2017 01:22:34 am

Hello Anna,

Free admissions for elderly is only applicable for Turkish citizens.
However for disabled people and their companions there is no admission fee. In this case you need to prove your disability with a medical report.

Hi! I wanted to know whether the entrance fee to Ephesus is free for ICOMOS card holders. A lot of sights in Istanbul were free but I couldn't find any information about Ephesus.

1/27/2019 10:48:18 am

Yes, ICOMOS card holders have free access to the Ancient city of Ephesus.

I want to take my dog as he will travel with me. Is that ok? Of course on a lead.

4/1/2019 10:10:07 am

You may but bear that in mind that there are so many stray dogs at the site so it may not be very comfortable.

I love this tourist attraction, fun time!

I have just bought e-tickets for Ephesus and Hierapolis, and also an Istanbul Museum Pass (Mobil). The sent me a PDF with several barcoded tickets on, all with today's date. Do I need to exchange the tickets or the museum pass for printed tickets? Will they be valid whatever date I use them? Thanks for you advice.

5/15/2019 09:55:25 pm

You will scan the barcodes at the sites. You will not need any other ticket or card.

Hello,
I bought a combined ticket for Ephesus, its museum, St.Jhon's basilica and the terrace houses. This ticket can be used within three days. I just visited Ephesus but didn't know my ticket included the terrace houses. Can still go visit them with this ticket? (the problem is that I need to enter Ephesus, to do so). Thank you in advance

9/16/2019 11:54:38 am

You can visit Terrace Houses with the ticket.
The combined ticket will allow you to enter Ephesus Ancient City for only one entry. That means to visit terrace houses you need to purchase 72tl ticket for Ephesus ancient city,

9/17/2019 10:25:15 am

Thank you very much for your quick response.
It makes sense what you say.
Finally I could see the terrace houses, anyway. The whole site is fantastic.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

We will update them at earliest possible.
