Privé transfer naarŞirince Village
The Greek-Ottoman wine village above Ephesus — İzmir Airport to Şirince from €65 private, about an hour's drive.
Şirince Village
Şirince is a hillside village of whitewashed Greek-Ottoman houses stacked above the vineyards and olive groves of Selçuk, in İzmir Province. Once called Çirkince ("ugly") — legend says its Greek settlers wanted to keep it to themselves — it was renamed Şirince ("pretty") in 1926, and pretty it is: narrow cobbled lanes, two 19th-century Greek churches, and courtyard wine houses pouring the fruit wines the village is famous for. It sits just 8 km above Selçuk and Ephesus, so most visitors pair the two in one day. From İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport (ADB) it is about 62 km — roughly an hour by road — and a private SooTransfer starts at €65 in a six-seat Eco Van, fixed price quoted up front.

Şirince Village transfer · FAQ
How much is a transfer from İzmir Airport to Şirince?
A private one-way transfer from İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport (ADB) to Şirince starts at €65 in an Eco Van seating up to six. It is about 62 km — roughly an hour — with a fixed euro price quoted up front, meet-and-greet at arrivals and free waiting if your flight is late.
Can I visit Şirince from Kuşadası or the cruise port?
Yes — Şirince is about 30 km from Kuşadası, a 40-minute drive, and pairs perfectly with Ephesus as a private shore excursion. We meet you at the pier, run both stops at your pace and guarantee you are back on board before all-aboard time.
Is Şirince worth visiting?
Absolutely — it is the Aegean's most atmospheric village: Greek-Ottoman architecture, family wine cellars, an artisan market and vineyard views, all 15 minutes above Ephesus. Two to three hours is enough to wander, taste and lunch well.
Can I combine Şirince and Ephesus in one day?
That is the classic plan. Do Ephesus early while it is cool and quiet, then climb to Şirince for a courtyard lunch and wine tasting. A private car makes the timing effortless — around 8–9 relaxed hours door-to-door from İzmir, less from Kuşadası.
What is Şirince famous for?
Its fruit wines — peach, blackberry, cherry and quince — plus olive oil, handmade lace and beautifully preserved Greek-Ottoman houses. It briefly made world headlines in 2012 as a supposed safe haven from the Mayan-calendar "doomsday", which only added to its fame.
