What the drive from Izmir to Kusadasi is like
Kusadasi lies roughly 100 kilometres from central Izmir. The journey takes about 1 hour 15 minutes depending on traffic, mostly on the motorway.
The route passes right by the Selçuk and Ephesus turn-off. It therefore suits travellers who want to add a historic stop; the programme is planned together at booking.
- Door to door in one vehicle; no changes
- An Ephesus and Selçuk stop on request
- Drop-off at hotels, summer houses and the port
- Generous luggage space, a quiet cabin
Where we drop off in Kusadasi
Your destination might be, for example, a hotel in the centre, a resort by Ladies Beach or a summer house towards Davutlar. Sharing your address when you book lets us plan the drop-off precisely.
In addition, for cruise passengers a drop-off around the port or a pickup from the port can be planned. Share your ship times and the pickup is set around them.
A journey with an Ephesus and Selçuk stop

In addition, the House of the Virgin Mary and central Selçuk can join the same plan. Share the stops when booking and the waiting conditions are settled in advance.
