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
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,
It makes sense what you say.
Finally I could see the terrace houses, anyway. The whole site is fantastic.
The prices above are not updated.
We will update them at earliest possible.

Me and my friend are at journey through and need a place to take our bags. Is there any possibility to leave them before going (in a locker or something) ?
Kind regards

You can take the dolmus to Selcuk. Ask the driver to drop you at the bus stop close to Ephesus. You can walk approximately 1.5km to the lower gate of Ephesus.

Thx

Can you please inform about the recent rates for all sites?
if we buy the tickets online how about the free entrance for the kids?
Are they simply allowed to enter by showing their passport or will we have to go to the ticket counter to ask for a free ticket anyways? Which would make the pre-booking useless...
Thank you.
Ok, so the passports of the children need to be shown at the ticket office, hence we cannot skip a queue by buying the tickets for the adults in advance. We have to go to the ticket office anyways, correct?
On the muze.gov.tr website there is the option of each ticket for the ephasus attractions seperately, but none for the 65/52 euro combined packages (that I can find!).
Do you have links for those at all? Thanks and sorry for the trouble!
Do you have discount for students with ISIC student card for Ephesus? If yes, how many percentage and from which ticket.
Thank you!
is there discount or free for the entrance fee for the disable person from europe?

Whats the costs for me and my 2 kids (14 and 11 years old) for ephesos only, without museum?
Thanks
No matter you visit the Ephesus Experience Museum or not.
Over 8 years of age 40 Euros applies.

It only lists "EPHESUS ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE + EPHESUS EXPERIENCE MUSEUM" for 40 Euro and "EPHESUS ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE THE TERRACE HOUSES" for 15 Euro.
This is 55 Euro, not the 52 Euro on this website.

Can you please tell me if the Terrace Houses are included in the Museum Pass Turkey? I am talking about the 165€ pass, not the Aegean pass.
I keep finding contradictory information on this.
Thank you very much!
You do not need to buy any extra ticket for Terrace Houses in Ephesus.
