Fethiye 4x4 safari tour to Saklıkent Gorge and Gizlikent Waterfall
The River Xanthos area has been the scene of action since ancient times – and the fun just keeps on coming with this excursion. You'll go on an open-top 4x4 safari through mountains and past villages before enjoying the chance to bathe in mud pools. This is the stuff of legend.Climb aboard your 4x4 and you'll start with a drive through the village of Zorlar. The village's Ottoman-style houses epitomise old Turkey. After trundling through fruit groves and getting wet 'n' wild with a water fight, you'll enjoy lunch at Gizlikent waterfall. Tuck into a host of tasty dishes in the cool air of the valley.In the afternoon, there's an optional visit — for a small fee — to Saklıkent Gorge. Here, you can pay to do river tubing – settle on a rubber ring and float down the river for a couple of kilometres. If you're a landlubber, you can stay in the 4x4, meeting the rafters further downstream. And you'll also have the chance to bathe in some natural mud pools or play more water games, in which you'll get to squirt your family and friends with a blaster.

Ancient Lycian tour of Tlos and Saklikent with lunch
The land of ancient Lycia lies pinched between the Mediterranean coast and the soaring Taurus Mountains of southwest Türkiye. You'll visit three spots that show off the region's top archaeological and natural sights by minibus on this exclusive small‑group tour with just 14 guests.After being picked up from your hotel, you'll head to Üzümlü village in the foothills of the Taurus Mountains. This peaceful rural stop gives you a feel for traditional village life before the scenery shifts towards the dramatic landscapes ahead. Your next stop is Tlos, one of the most impressive ancient cities in Lycia. Here, you'll see the iconic cliff‑cut Lycian tombs rising out of the hillside, along with the Ottoman fortress perched at the summit.Half an hour by minibus from there brings you to Gizlikent Şelalesi. A traditional lunch of mezze and casserole is served at a restaurant right by the waterfall, with your group seated at tables tucked among the trees. After you've refuelled, it's on to the final stop: Saklıkent Gorge. You'll have over an hour to explore the base of this 300‑metre‑deep limestone canyon and hear how the gorge shaped ancient Lycian life four thousand years ago.

Fethiye market, shopping and old town visit
Two of Turkey's top things to do combine on this morning tour – shopping and sightseeing. You'll kick things off with a visit to Fethiye's Roman‑era amphitheatre before heading into the old town. Your guide will then show you around the Paspatur and fish market area so you can get your bearings.From there, you'll have free time to explore at your own pace. You can wander through the narrow streets, browse the shops, or grab some local favourite snacks like gozleme, a thin stuffed flatbread, and simit, a sesame‑crusted bread ring, in one of the cosy cafes.Then, it's off to the weekly market, where stalls pop up with everything from fresh produce and spices to clothes, bags, rugs and ceramics. It's lively, colourful and ideal for practising your bartering skills. And, because the tour wraps up by midday, you'll be back at your hotel in time for a lazy afternoon by the pool.

Secret Valley Visit with Boat Cruise & Lunch

This tour will see you boating through the valley's stunning canyons, before having a few hours of free time to relax and unwind. Drive through amazing mountainous scenery before boarding on to a traditional wooden river craft. Cruise lazily along the placid waters of the Secret Valley's reservoir, soaking up the views to a soundtrack of tweeting birds.When it's time to take a break, we'll stop at a sheltered spot on the edge of the lake. Soak up some sunshine and relax on one of the sunbeds here, before tucking into a typical local lunch. In the afternoon, you'll have some more time to sunbathe, give zip-lining a try and go for a stroll through the woods here, before hopping back on the boat and returning to the harbour where you started.

Kayakoy ghost town tour with Mount Babadag cable car
From an abandoned hillside village to the summit of Mount Babadağ, there's a variety of views on this tour. You'll feel like you've stepped back in time exploring Kayaköy, one of the best-preserved ghost villages in Turkey. Elif, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘There are close to one thousand deserted stone houses as well as churches and chapels, even a bakery. At one point there was a plan to convert the whole village into a tourist resort, but thankfully this historic place has been preserved.'We'll start off the tour in Kayaköy, which was abandoned by Greeks fleeing war in the 1920s. Now, their ghosts flit between the empty homes as you wander through silent streets that once rang with voices. Peek into roofless stone dwellings as your guide explains their tiered designs, and discover tiny chapels and a little school. Elif says, ‘The layout of the houses and the way they were lined up was to ensure none blocked another's view.' You'll also see the empty basilica, with its faded frescoes and mosaics. Eerie yet fascinating.Next up, we'll head to the foot of Mount Babadağ to hop on a cable car almost to the top. Enjoy eye-popping panoramic views over Fethiye and the coast below as you glide up to the top station below the summit. If you want to reach the very top, there is a chairlift available. The peak is popular with paragliders, so there's a good chance you'll see them drifting in the skyline. It's a feast for the eyes.
