Begin your day with a private hotel pickup in a modern, air-conditioned vehicle driven by a professional driver. A licensed, English-speaking tour guide will accompany you throughout the journey, providing cultural, historical, and local insights while ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience from start to finish.
After a scenic drive through the countryside, arrive in Dalyan, a charming riverside town surrounded by reeds, wetlands, and dramatic cliffs. Board a private river boat and cruise along the Dalyan River, passing the famous Lycian Rock Tombs carved high into the cliffs. Learn about the ancient city of Kaunos and the fascinating Lycian burial traditions while enjoying panoramic views and excellent photo opportunities.
Continue your journey toward Iztuzu Beach, also known as Turtle Beach, one of the most important nesting sites for the endangered Caretta Caretta sea turtles. Spend free time relaxing on the golden sand, swimming in the crystal-clear waters, or walking along the protected coastline. Your guide will share information about the conservation efforts that help preserve this unique ecosystem.
Optionally, you may visit the Dalyan mud baths and thermal pools, a popular natural spa experience believed to have skin-revitalizing properties. This stop is completely optional and can be included or skipped based on your personal preference.
Enjoy free time in Dalyan town for lunch at a riverside restaurant (lunch is not included, allowing you to choose according to your taste and budget). After lunch, relax on the return journey to your hotel, with optional scenic stops along the way if time and interest allow.
