World Traveller calls at Kuşadası in June, July and September 2027, staying until 22:00 or 23:00. A realistic four-stop yellow taxi plan with breaks.
World Traveller is listed in Kuşadası three times in the port schedule we follow: in June and September 2027 from 08:00 to 22:00, and in July from 07:00 to 23:00. With fourteen hours or more in port, the usual worry about fitting everything in disappears. The four classic stops, Ephesus, the House of the Virgin Mary, the Temple of Artemis and Şirince, can be done at walking pace, with real breaks between them.
Why breaks matter on a long day
Four stops in a row is more tiring than it sounds: two hours on the marble of Ephesus, a climb into the hills, the steep lanes of Şirince. In June and July the heat adds to it. On a long call, building in breaks is not wasted time; it is what keeps the afternoon enjoyable.
A four-stop plan with breaks
- About 08:30: in the taxi at the port exit (07:30 on the July call)
- About 09:00 to 11:15: Ephesus, upper gate to lower gate
- About 11:15 to 12:00: break: a cold drink and shade in Selçuk
- About 12:15: Temple of Artemis, a short stop
- About 12:45 to 13:30: House of the Virgin Mary
- About 14:15 to 16:00: Şirince, a long lunch
- About 16:40: back at the port
- Evening: rest on board, then Kuşadası on foot
The cut-off is 21:00 on the 22:00 calls and 22:00 on the July call, so there is plenty in hand. If the all-aboard time printed on board is earlier, use that.
If you want a later lunch
Swap the order: Ephesus first, then the House of the Virgin Mary, a rest on board in the early afternoon, and a second ride to Şirince for a late lunch or an early dinner. Tell us both pickup times when you book.

Booking notes
Payment goes to the driver in cash; there is no card machine in the car. Entrance fees, food and drinks are not part of the fare. The basic ride is the port to Ephesus and back, and the House of the Virgin Mary, the Temple of Artemis, Şirince or a second ride are charged on top, so mention them in your message. The cruise transfer page explains the meeting point at the port exit.
