The pickup, in practice
Pickup is at the Karaaslan Inn entrance or reception drive. The Vito pulls up at Karaaslan Inn, luggage goes in, child seats are already fitted if you asked for them, and the trip starts.
The driver meets you at reception or the forecourt, loads the luggage, and you leave. Door-to-door means door-to-door: the car comes to Karaaslan Inn, bags go in the boot, and you are on the road within minutes.
On the road to Ephesus
Routing is the driver's job. Your driver watches traffic and picks the quickest sensible line.
From Karaaslan Inn the car follows the ring road that meets the Selcuk highway and settles onto the highway. Then it is highway driving until Ephesus, with stops whenever you ask for them.
About Ephesus
Open daily with longer hours in season. We drop you at one end and collect you at the other.
Two to three hours covers the main street for most visitors. In summer an early pickup makes a real difference, both for the heat and for beating the cruise crowds.
Small things that help
Most visits take two to three hours; the driver waits at your exit gate and the pace inside is yours. The House of Virgin Mary sits 8 km uphill from the site; add it at booking and we plan the order.
Vehicle details
Every transfer runs in a Mercedes Vito: seven passenger seats, air conditioning and a real boot. Golf bags, buggies and wheelchairs travel free when noted on the booking. For families, child seats are already fitted when the car arrives.
