Overview

Your journey will begin at our first stop, the deep blue Aquarium Bay. After a swimming break, we will embark on a 1.5-hour journey to Dalyan. For this journey, we will use the ORCA boat, which can cross endless seas.

When you arrive at Iztuzu Beach, also known as Turtle Beach, you will find yourself in a magnificent oasis where golden sands meet the crystal clear waters of the Aegean Sea. This protected area is a vital nesting area for the endangered Loggerhead sea turtles and will add a sense of wonder to your visit. Whether you choose to swim in the refreshing sea, enjoy the warm sun or simply admire the unspoiled surroundings, this idyllic location promises unforgettable moments for nature lovers and beach lovers alike.

As the tour continues, history comes to life with the sight of the magnificent Lycian rock tombs. These ancient structures carved directly into the cliffs stand as a testament to the creativity and artistry of the Lycian civilisation. Your guide will share fascinating stories and legends about these tombs, providing insights into a time long gone. With their dramatic setting overlooking the river, the tombs are a striking reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the area.

It ends with a visit to Dalyan’s famous mud baths. Soak in the mineral-rich mud, let it dry in the warm sun, then rinse to reveal soft, glowing skin. Then take a dip in the soothing thermal pools, known for their therapeutic properties.

This unforgettable tour seamlessly combines nature, history and relaxation, offering something for everyone. From the natural beauty of the Dalyan River to the cultural wonders of the rock tombs and the invigorating mud baths, every moment is designed to create lasting memories.
