Begin your Turkish adventure on the sparkling Aegean shore of Kusadasi, where a fully‑inclusive hotel provides breakfast, lunch, dinner, soft drinks and local wines. The first full day takes you inland to the picturesque Greek‑style village of Şirince, famed for its fruit wines, traditional leather workshops and a hands‑on wine‑making session with local vintners.
The third day immerses you in the ancient world of Ephesus, wandering the marble Library of Celsus, the grand Roman Theatre, the Temple of Artemis and the historic Curetes Street. A visit to a carpet‑weaving centre and the Seljuk‑era Isa Bey Mosque adds cultural depth, while the legend of the Seven Sleepers brings a touch of early Christian history.
Day four transports you to the surreal white terraces of Pamukkale and the ruins of Hierapolis, where you can stroll among calcite pools and explore the ancient thermal baths. The remaining days offer leisure on Kusadasi’s sun‑kissed beaches, optional excursions such as paragliding over the White Mountain, and a comfortable transfer back to Izmir for your departure.
Kusadasi’s long beaches and lively harbour make an easy base for the great sites of the southern Aegean. Ephesus, one of the best-preserved Roman cities in the Mediterranean, lies twenty minutes away, the hill village of Sirince is known for its fruit wines and stone houses, and the white terraces of Pamukkale are a day trip inland. With all meals and drinks covered at your hotel, the free days are simply for the sea and the sun.

Upon landing at Izmir Airport you will be greeted by a guide holding the TSG sign and transferred to your all‑inclusive hotel in Kusadasi. After check‑in you have the rest of the day free to settle in, stroll the seaside promenade or explore the town’s lively market at your own pace.
After a hearty breakfast, the group departs for the hill‑top village of Şirince. Here you will wander narrow stone lanes, visit a local leather workshop and enjoy a guided tasting of the region’s celebrated fruit wines. A Turkish coffee and lokum break adds a sweet finish before returning to Kusadasi in the late afternoon.
The day begins with a 09:30 am departure to the ancient city of Ephesus. A fully‑guided walk showcases the Library of Celsus, the Great Theatre, the Curetes Street and the Temple of Artemis, once one of the Seven Wonders. After lunch, the itinerary continues to a carpet‑weaving centre and the beautifully tiled Isa Bey Mosque, illustrating Seljuk craftsmanship before heading back to the hotel.
Early departure at 08:00 leads to the UNESCO‑listed wonder of Pamukkale. After a brief stop for lunch, you will walk the dazzling white travertine terraces and explore the ancient ruins of Hierapolis, including its Roman baths and temple foundations. The group returns to Kusadasi in the early evening.
Enjoy a full day at leisure. Relax on the golden beach, swim in the crystal‑clear sea, shop the local bazaars or join one of the many optional excursions such as a traditional Turkish bath, a jeep safari, or snorkeling in the Aegean.
This day is left open for personal exploration. Guests may choose to unwind at the hotel, revisit favourite spots, or take advantage of optional activities, including a day‑trip to the Acropolis of Pergamon or tandem paragliding over Pamukkale, both available at an additional cost.
Another relaxed day in Kusadasi provides the perfect opportunity to soak up the coastal atmosphere, enjoy the all‑inclusive amenities, or arrange a private boat tour along the Aegean coastline.
After breakfast, a private transfer will bring you to Izmir Airport for your onward flight, concluding the eight‑day Turkish getaway.

Real, verified reviews from travellers who explored Turkey with us.
My husband and I chose Inca Tour for our honeymoon and we are so glad we did. The boutique hotel selection was beautiful and the Bosphorus dinner cruise was so romantic. Thank you for making our trip special!
It was important for us to have a guide who spoke Russian, and Ender was wonderful. He explained every detail at Dolmabahce Palace. The Princes Islands day trip was a beautiful break from the busy city.
Our guide Ender was incredibly knowledgeable about Turkish history. The hot-air balloon ride at sunrise in Cappadocia was the highlight of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized — from airport pick-up to the last d...
Ender was our Italian-speaking guide and we felt like family. He took us to local spots tourists never see. The hotel choice in Sultanahmet was perfect for walking everywhere.
10+ years later we still talk about our Cappadocia balloon ride and the Bosphorus sunset cruise. Some memories are timeless. Thank you Inca Tour!
