Turkey & Cyprus — FAQ

Should I go to Ephesus from Kuşadası or from Izmir?

Both work. Kuşadası is the closer port, only about 20 minutes away, while Izmir is roughly an hour. Your itinerary decides it, and the tours from each port are built around the drive.

Do I need a visa for Turkey on a cruise?

Rules depend on your nationality and can change, so check the current requirements with your cruise line and official government sources before you sail.
