What to bring

• Ticket code: Enter your ticket code on the Roamer redemption page before you set off, while you still have signal.
• Phone and browser: Bring a smartphone that can open web pages in a browser as no app is needed.
• Charged device: Start with a fully charged phone so the audio, GPS map, and directions run smoothly.
• Earphones: Bring earphones so you can hear the audio clearly as you walk.
• Data or Wi-Fi: Use mobile data on the walk, or load the tour in a Wi-Fi area before you begin.
• Sun protection: Bring sun protection and water if you walk the exposed road section to the Temple of Artemis.

What's not allowed

Accessibility

• Steps on route: The route has steps on the pedestrian street and a stepped lane near the mosque; it is not step-free.

Additional information

• Tour access: The tour opens in your phone browser using GPS, so there is no separate app to download.
• Start time flexibility: You can start on any day at any hour and replay the tour content as often as you like.
• Suggested timing: Start at 08:30 when the Ephesus Museum opens or walk late afternoon with the museum first.
• Heat on final section: The last stretch to the Temple of Artemis runs beside a main road with little shade, so avoid midday summer heat.
• Stork season: White storks nest on the aqueduct from mid-March to late August; from September the nests may be empty.
• Ephesus Museum hours: The Ephesus Museum is open daily from 08:30 to 17:30 and the ticket office is open until 17:00.
• Basilica and fortress ticket: One ticket covers both the Basilica of Saint John and the Ayasuluk fortress, and you should allow about one hour to visit.
• Fortress hours: The ministry lists earlier closing hours for the fortress, roughly 09:00 to 16:00, so plan to go early.
• Mosque etiquette: The Isa Bey Mosque is a working mosque, so avoid prayer times, especially on Friday at midday.
• Mosque dress code: If you enter, cover shoulders and knees, women cover their hair, and remove shoes at the door.
• Temple of Artemis access: The ministry lists no ticket or official hours for the Temple of Artemis, so check access at the site before relying on a visit.
• Route planning: Check the official page for the Basilica of Saint John and Ayasuluk fortress for the latest opening hours before you go.
