    My wife and I are starting to plan a trip to Turkey late this year. We want to do a full day tour of Ephesus and then a full day tour of Pamukkale. We will be flying into Izmir from Istanbul.

    We are not sure about this: - should we base ourselves in Izmir or Kusadasi to visit these places? Is Izmir more convenient to stay or Kusadasi? Or should we base in some other town nearby?

    Thanks in advance for your tips!

    If you stay in Izmir, you will spent most of your time on the road.
    I wouldn't choose one base location.
    If you are flying down to Izmir to see Ephesus, I would stay in Selcuk.
    It is half an hour far from the airport and it is 5 minutes away from Ephesus.
    Ephesus is huge and you can easily spent a day in there. You can also visit Virgin Mary's house and maybe the old Greek village of Sirince.
    For Pamukkale, I would stay in Pamukkale.

    We prefer "Turkish Raki" but it is OK to buy us a bottle of cold "Efes" beer to keep us working
