Fruit wine, stone lanes, hillside charm.
Şirince is a former Greek village of whitewashed stone houses terraced up vine-covered hills above Selçuk, famous for its homemade mulberry, peach and pomegranate fruit wines and slow farm-to-table lunches. From İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport (ADB) it is roughly 62 km, about a 62-minute drive, and we bring you door to door — the classic pairing with a visit to nearby Ephesus.
Romantic, artisanal and gently sleepy: cobbled lanes climb between vine-shaded courtyards, wine houses pour ruby mulberry samples, and the scent of gözleme drifts from terrace kitchens. Storks and church bells, doorstep lace-sellers and honey stalls set the pace. It is a village made for slow mornings, a long lunch and an unhurried glass on a hillside balcony above the valley.
The standout features that set Şirince apart from every other Antalya region.

Quick answers about transfers, distance and what to expect on arrival.
Şirince is about 62 km from İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport (ADB), roughly a 62-minute drive up into the hills above Selçuk. With our private transfer it is a single door-to-door ride, so the exact time depends only on traffic and your pick-up point.
There is no direct bus, so a private transfer is by far the easiest option: a fixed EUR price agreed when you book, an English-speaking driver, flight tracking and payment after the ride. Just enter your details for a quote — no queues or bus changes via Selçuk.
Şirince is best known for its homemade fruit wines — mulberry, peach, pomegranate and more, poured for free tasting in village wine houses. It is also loved for its restored Greek stone houses, olive oil, handmade lace, and long farm-to-table village lunches on hillside terraces.
Yes, and it is the classic pairing. Ephesus and the House of the Virgin Mary sit just 8 km downhill, so a morning at the ruins and an afternoon of fruit wine and lunch in Şirince fit easily into one day. We can wait between stops and take you door to door.
Spring (April–June) and autumn (September–October) are ideal — warm, dry days for wandering the lanes and terrace lunches without the July–August heat and tour-bus crowds. Weekdays are calmer than weekends, when day-trippers arrive from İzmir.
