Itinerary

 10:30 – Pick-up from Hotel / Meeting Point
Start your day with pickup from your hotel in Dalyan or nearby areas. Meet your professional guide and board a traditional riverboat.

1. Lycian Rock Tombs: Our first stop is the awe-inspiring Lycian rock tombs carved into the cliffs above the river. These majestic structures date back thousands of years and reflect the grandeur of the ancient city of Caunos.

2. Dalyan Delta Cruise & Blue Crabs: Cruise through the tranquil delta surrounded by lush reed beds. Here, you can sample freshly caught blue crabs (optional) and keep your eyes open for Caretta Caretta turtles—a thrilling experience for nature lovers.

3. İztuzu Beach – Turtle Beach: Arrive at the stunning İztuzu Beach, a protected nesting site for sea turtles. Take a two-hour break to swim in the crystal-clear waters, relax under the sun, and explore this beautiful sandy coastline.

4. Lunch by the River: Enjoy a delicious lunch served at our riverside restaurant surrounded by nature. Your plate includes 4 traditional Turkish starters, rice or pasta, salad, and your choice of grilled fish, chicken, or a vegetarian main dish.

5. Mud Bath & Thermal Springs: After lunch, head to the famous Dalyan Mud Baths, a favorite of celebrities like Dustin Hoffman and Sting. Take a mud shower, rinse off in the thermal pool, and don’t forget to take fun photos!

6. Lake Köyceğiz – Freshwater Swim: Cool off with a refreshing swim in Lake Köyceğiz, surrounded by breathtaking scenery. It’s the perfect way to rejuvenate before the final leg of the tour.

7. Ancient City of Caunos (Optional): If you're up for a short walk through history, we’ll visit the ruins of Caunos. This well-preserved ancient city includes a Roman theater, city walls, and more.

Note: Due to hot midday temperatures, this visit is scheduled for late afternoon to ensure comfort and better photo conditions.
