Overview

Ephesus for Kids is not your ordinary history tour – it’s a fun-filled adventure back in time! Imagine walking through a real ancient city where Roman emperors once ruled and gladiators performed in huge theaters. Kids can explore the mighty Amphitheatre, the cool Celsus Library, ancient Roman toilets (yes, really!), and more.

At the Ephesus Museum, history comes alive with awesome treasures from thousands of years ago. Then it’s off to Market Village – a super cute place full of tiny models showing old Turkish life. And the best part? Kids get to roll up their sleeves and try their hand at making colorful ceramics and weaving their little rug.

It’s the perfect mix of stories, hands-on fun, and unforgettable memories – all in one magical day!

Children 7 years old and younger enter museums and ancient sites free of charge.

    When we reach in Ephesus we start to explore this well-preserved ancient city. It was a city in ancient Greece on the coast of Ionia, 3 kilometers (1.9 mi) southwest of present-day Selçuk in İzmir Province, Turkey. It was built in the 10th century BC on the site of the former Arzawan capital by Attic and Ionian Greek colonists. During the Classical Greek era, it was one of twelve cities that were members of the Ionian League. The city came under the control of the Roman Republic in 129 BC.
