What to expect

Winding its way from Lake Koycegiz to the Agean, the River Dalyan is as peaceful as it is pretty. And today, you'll get to see it from all angles during this guided trip to Dalyan. Gökhan, one of our guides, says of the valley, "God has made this place so beautiful, with hot springs and Turkey's most beautiful beach. And there's a varied ecosystem, with migrating birds and turtles."

Leaving in the morning, you'll head to Dalyan Harbour with your guide, in the heart of the town. Here, you'll hop aboard an eco-friendly boat for a trip along the Dalyan River. Your guide will tell you about the different wildlife that hang their hats in this part of Turkey, and the skipper will slow the boat down when you approach the ancient Lycian tombs. These ancient temples were carved into the cliffs near the river over 1,000 years ago.

You'll trundle along a patch of the river at a relaxed pace. Eventually, you'll pop a U-turn and head back to Dalyan, where you'll hace some free time to explore the town. Wander along the waterfront, dip into one of the bars or restaurants for a bite to eat, shop for spice sets, ceramics and more in the different souvenirs shops – the choice is yours.

Tour of Oludeniz Beach, Babadag Cable Car and Ghost Town Kayakoy

The area around Fethiye is packed with intriguing sites and areas of outstanding natural beauty. On this full day tour, you'll visit the eerie ghost town of Kayakoy, ride the Babadag cable car and have time to relax and swim at Oludeniz's famous Blue Lagoon. Elif, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘From the top of Mount Babadag, you can see a beautiful stretch of the Turquoise Coast, including the curving beach and lagoon at Oludeniz, which you've just visited. Watch the paragliders gliding down to land near the beach.'You'll start the morning heading straight to Oludeniz. It's a small resort best known for the two-kilometre-long curl of beach that shelters the Blue Lagoon. Basking on the warm sand, your toughest decision is whether to paddle in the bay or the calmer, shallower lagoon. Next, you'll ride the Babadag cable car for stunning views from the mountaintop. You'll have time to get something to eat at the top, after which you'll head back down to Kayakoy, one of the best-preserved ghost villages in Turkey.Wander silent streets that bristled with life before the population abandoned them over a century ago. Peek into the tiers of roofless houses, see the little school, and visit the basilica – still decorated with old frescos and mosaics. Elif says, ‘There are close to 1,000 deserted stone houses in Kayakoy, as well as churches and chapels, even a bakery. The Greek villagers who lived here – and called it Leivissi – were forced to flee after WWI, and no one replaced them.'
