Itinerary
Sirince Village, this pretty old Greek orthodox village, 12 km away from Ephesus, was once Cirkince (Ugly). Indeed its habitants gave this name of purpose as they did not want to be bothered by foreigners nor to share the beauty of their village. Still after years, visitors undertsood that the village was not ugly at alland called it Sirince (Pretty). As the village is located on the top of mountain, anyone will enjoy the impressive wineyards and peach trees views on his way.
You will visit Selcuk Saturday market. You can find food, textile, etc... in there.

The driver, Adam, picked us up at the hotel on time. The guide, Erdem, was very relaxed and funny. He spoke English and Dutch. He told us a lot of interesting facts about the town and the shops we went to. He showed us lovely shops and didn't push us to buy something. Very pleased with this trip!

We were picked up by our guide and driver spot on time, in a modern air conditioned minibus vehicle. We were the only two travellers that day so were privileged to have a personal tour with Eren Tozlu, our guide which was interesting and great fun. Sirince is a beautiful village with steep streets, which were a bit of a challenge for my husband - but our guide kindly made sure he rested as necessary and arranged a Turkish coffee experience for us, where the coffee was brewed in hot sand which was brilliant. We also had a wine tasting of the locally produced fruit wines. It was then back in the minibus to Selcuk where we visited the weekly bazaar - a huge Saturday market for locals, plus a few tourists, where we engaged in a little good humoured bartering/bargaining for a few well priced souvenirs. There was a great selection of items to buy from traditional tools, cooking equipment and towels to clothing, inexpensive jewellery, and pottery plus wonderful spices, herbal teas and fresh fruit and vegetables. So worth a visit if you are looking for goods or souvenirs at better prices than the Kusadasi shops. We were then returned to our hotel having spent an interesting, enjoyable and very different day out.
It's wonderful to hear about your fantastic experience with Eren Tozlu as your guide during the tour to Sirince and Selcuk. We're thrilled that you enjoyed the personal touch of having a private tour and the unique Turkish coffee experience. It's great to know that your husband was well taken care of, especially with the steep streets in Sirince. The wine tasting and visit to the weekly bazaar in Selcuk sound like memorable experiences as well. We're delighted that you found a variety of souvenirs at the market and had a fun time engaging in some bargaining. Thank you for sharing your positive feedback, and we hope to welcome you back for more enjoyable adventures in the future. Best Regards Peron Tour Team
Sirince is a picturesque village (located near Ephesus) has history dating back to Hellenistic period. It was originally settled by Greek slaves and bustling with tourists. Its municipal building now holds a museum that has a collection that’s local in nature as well as the Artemis Restaurant. There are stalls and buildings surrounding the main park selling local artisanal crafts and home-made food products such as preserves and syrups made from pomegranates and other fruits indigenous to the area. Grapes for wine are also grown in the valley below the village. One can either shop or relax at tables or in chairs scattered throughout the park and enjoy a cup of Chai.

The tour was - in my opinion - the best of all we took in our stay in Kusadasi. A place with an unique charm that definetely has to be visited: the streets, the colors and the people make the visit an incredible experience. The guide Gül was the friendliest, who showed us the important points of the village. We enjoyed a lot making coffee in the typical way and tasting different wines. A lot of little stores with beautiful and typical things to buy.. shopping worth it! The village is only 25 min away from the city.. so if you are looking for what to do in Kusadasi, Sirince has to be on the top of the list. A big thank you to Gül, the best guide ever and the driver to bring us safely!
Thank you for the 5-star review! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed Turkish Coffee and Turkey's famous wines. Thank you again for your feedback, which always inspires us to provide better service. We hope to see you again in the future.
