Ramada Resort by Wyndham to Ephesus Ancient City by Private Car: What to Know
Private door-to-door transfer, Ramada Resort by Wyndham to Ephesus Ancient City: about 19 km in ~25 minutes. Child seats free, cancel up to 24 h ahead.
Ramada Resort by Wyndham is in Kusadasi Marina, the marina quarter by Setur Marina and the cruise terminal, next to Guvercinada castle island. A pre-booked car covers the 19 km to Ephesus Ancient City in around 25 minutes, collecting you at the hotel entrance.
Starting from Kusadasi Marina
Ataturk Boulevard runs the length of the marina quarter; pickups happen at the hotel forecourt on the boulevard. On cruise-ship days the waterfront is busier, and drivers time the approach so loading stays quick.
About Ephesus
Most visits take 2 to 3 hours. Ephesus is the headline ancient site of the region: the Celsus Library, the 25,000-seat Great Theatre, Curetes Street, the Terrace Houses and, 8 km away on the mountain, the House of Virgin Mary.
Route and road notes
Your driver knows the Ephesus run well. The ride is non-stop unless you ask for a break; coffee and fuel stops are fine at any point.
Small things that help
Tell the driver which gate you want to exit. Terrace Houses has its own ticket inside the site and its own turnstile; if it is on your list, budget an extra half hour and a second queue.
About the vehicle
Seven seats, a sliding door and a proper boot: the Vito covers this route daily. It takes up to 7 passengers with 6-7 big bags in the boot. Child seats (infant, child, booster) are free when you give us age and weight at booking.
Paying for the transfer
The quote you receive is the price you pay, for up to seven passengers and their luggage. The driver takes cash in EUR, USD or TL; paying online by card works too. Cancellation is free up to a day ahead.
Frequently asked questions
Do we need cash for tickets?
Cards are accepted at the main gates; a little cash helps for small purchases around the site.
Is the price per person or per car?
Per car: one fare covers the Vito and up to seven passengers with luggage on the Ephesus run.
What should we bring?
Comfortable shoes for ancient stone, a hat and water in summer. Shade is scarce inside Ephesus, so sunscreen earns its place.
