Kusadasi Jeep Safari from Izmir – Mountain Castle & Zeus Cave is a shared small-group day tour (full day). Prices start from €68 per person. Included: Hotel pick-up and drop-off (Izmir hotels), Jeep safari with driver and guide and Picnic lunch.
Head off-road on this Kusadasi jeep safari from Izmir, a full day of 4x4 mountain tracks, panoramic viewpoints, a picnic lunch and a swim in the cold waters of Zeus' Cave. Return transfers from your hotel in Izmir are included, with a reduced rate for children aged 4 to 9.
The jeep safari is one of the most popular day trips in Kuşadası: a convoy of open 4x4 vehicles leaves the coast and climbs into the mountains behind the town, where pine forest, old villages and viewpoints over the sea and the island of Samos reveal a side of the region few visitors see. The day mixes scenery, a relaxed picnic and a refreshing swim in a natural spring pool, and the cheerful water fights make it a favourite with families and groups of friends.
The jeep safari starts near Kusadasi, about 1 hour 15 minutes from Izmir. Bring a swimsuit and towel - water fights between the jeeps are part of the tradition - and keep your phone in a waterproof bag.

Kuşadası Jeep Safari ProgrammeYou are collected from your hotel in Izmir early in the morning and driven to Kuşadası, where the jeeps are waiting. The jeep convoy first stops in the village of Davutlar, where you can buy fresh local food, before leaving the asphalt for a climb of about an hour on 4x4 tracks to a hilltop castle at roughly 1,000 metres, with panoramic views over the Aegean coast.The safari continues to an old mountain monastery, where a picnic lunch is served and there is free time to relax in the shade. Through pine forest the jeeps reach a viewpoint over the Greek island of Samos and then Zeus' Cave, a natural pool of cold mountain water where you can swim. Expect the famous water fights between the jeeps along the way. At the end of the day the vehicle takes you back to your hotel in Izmir.

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!
