Ephesus & Terrace Houses Private Tour
Duration: 4-5 hours · 100% Private Tour · Kusadasi, Turkey
Step beyond the main Ephesus route into the Terrace Houses — the elegant homes of Ephesus' wealthiest Roman citizens, with original frescoes, mosaics and marble interiors still in place after 2,000 years. This private shore excursion is designed for guests who want to dive deeper than the standard Ephesus tour. After exploring the marble streets, the Library of Celsus and the Great Theatre, you'll enter the covered Terrace Houses complex for an intimate look at daily Roman life. A licensed Ephesus guide leads the entire visit at your pace, with a private air-conditioned Mercedes vehicle and door-to-door cruise port service from Kuşadası.
From $90 per adult (base price $170; group discounts below). Child (6–12): $127.50 (discounted). Infant (0–6): free.
