About This Activity

A comfortable, modern vehicle will pick you up from your accommodation in Fethiye, ensuring a seamless start to your journey. Transfers are included in the tour price, saving you the hassle of arranging transport. From there, you’ll head to Dalyan, a charming riverside town.

Upon arrival, a traditional boat awaits to take you on a serene cruise along the Dalyan River. The lush landscapes and calm waters provide the perfect backdrop for your adventure. As you glide through the river, the natural beauty of the region unfolds, preparing you for the exciting stops ahead.

The mud baths offer a unique experience that blends relaxation and fun. Cover yourself in the mineral-rich mud, known for its skin-rejuvenating properties, and then rinse off in the warm thermal springs. This activity is not only beneficial for your skin but also a playful highlight of the day.

As your boat journey continues, marvel at the intricate Lycian rock tombs carved into the cliffs. Dating back to the 4th century BC, these tombs are a testament to ancient craftsmanship and serve as a window into Turkey’s rich history. Your guide will share fascinating insights about their significance.

Iztuzu Beach, also known as Turtle Beach, is the next stop on this memorable day. This 4.5 km stretch of golden sand is a nesting ground for the endangered loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta). Swim in the clear waters, relax on the pristine beach, or explore the unique ecosystem of this protected area.

A riverside restaurant serves a delicious traditional Turkish lunch, featuring a variety of dishes prepared with fresh, local ingredients. This meal is a perfect way to recharge and enjoy the tranquil surroundings before continuing your adventure.

We had a lovely time. The food was excellent, the staff were wonderful, and booking the trip was simple. It started raining while we were on the boat, so I’d recommend bringing a hoodie just in case. I celebrated my birthday on board and it was amazing. The whole trip was very well organized.

You’ll be picked up from your hotel by bus along with a guide. Ours was hilarious, which made the day even better. First, you visit the mud baths, followed by a tasty lunch. Then you cruise along the tombs of Dalyan by boat and head to Turtle Beach. At the end of the day, you’re brought back to your hotel. Highly recommended!
