Kusadasi Travel Forum

My boyfriend and I are traveling to Turkey at the end of December. We plan to take an overnight ferry from Athens to the closest place to Kusadasi. Would the best place be Samos and then take a ferry to the mainland? Or are there direct ferries to the mainland?

Also, do ferries run there in the end of December? If not, what is the cheapest way for us to get from Athens to Kusadasi?

Hello! Can someone tell me something about hotel Dablakar in Kusadasi?
Thanks!

I've been trying hard to book round trip by bus from Istanbul to Kusadasi, but all bus companies sites are in Turkish. Does anybody know the site, or another way around to purchase tickets and would be a problem to buy it right on place in Istanbul?

Many thanks

Internet research suggests that for visiting ephesus, selcuk is the closest and nicest place to stay or perhaps the smaller village of sirinye. Your opinions on these three places and perhaps a choice of the best hotels in selcuk and sirinye.

Also, are ATM machines available readily in the smaller villages? Thank you.

HELLO!
CAN ANYONE TELL ME SOMETHING ABOUT VARUNA ADA HOTEL IN KUSADASI?
THANKS!

Hello everyone, I have been asking about this tour/activity I came across a couple of days ago because it looks so amazing! I have had absolutely no answers from anyone at all. Has anyone ever done this, or even heard anything about it? It looks fabulous and I think that the picture ops alone would be worth a lot!

We are in overnight on the 20th of Nov. and had considered an overnight to Pamukkale but doesn't seem like such a wise idea and I admit I was kind of bummed but when I found this it looked pretty good!

For the people there, or who might be there during this time, if it was something that turned out to be worth doing (and a reasonable price) would anyone be interested in coming? Our ship rollcall is extremely quiet.

I would really appreciate any opinions out there! Thanks!

Hello, I am traveling with my husband and 5 yr old daughter in November on 3 cruises and we are so desperately over budget that my husband just might leave me over the pond! lol. We will be docking in Kusadasi on November 20th in the morning and then leaving again on the 21st in the afternoon. I would really like to see Pamukkale but the tours are too expensive for us at this point. Is it difficult to get there by bus? How often do they run? Ideally I'd like to get on a bus in the morning and then stay the night there and get on a return bus first thing in the morning from Pamukkale. It seems as though the hotels there are very reasonable! Just so you know, we are also going to be in Kusadasi for a day on the cruise before this one so we will get a chance to see Ephesus the week before. I saw a picture of the white pools years ago and have always wanted to see them in person. This is probably the only time I will ever be in the vicinity! This is our dream trip. And the reason we are cramming in three cruises at one time. Thank you very much.

My husband and I are off to Kusadasi in a weeks time and I am trying to find out if we have to get a visa. We will be staying for 1 week, I hold an Austrian passport and my husband holds a UK passport. Do we have to obtain a visa before we travel or can it be purchased upon arrival at the airport. Does anyone know how much it costs and if you have to pay in local currency?
