- Saklikent Milli Parki - Welcome to the renowned Saklikent Gorge! As the second longest canyon in Europe, it offers a thrilling experience. Be prepared for the icy cold water! You can choose to explore the canyon independently or with a private guide. If the water feels too chilly, you can relax and soak in the ambiance at one of the riverside cafés with a hot tea or coffee. Of course, a cold beer is also a great choice!
After exploring Saklikent Gorge, we will proceed to a nearby restaurant, just a 5-minute drive from the canyon, for a delightful lunch.
Once we have enjoyed our meal, we will continue our journey to Yaka Village.

- Tlos - We will explore the ruins of Tlos, an ancient Lycian city with a history spanning 4000 years. Although in ruins, historians and archaeologists regard it as one of the most significant religious cities of Lycia. The city is situated on hills, and mythology suggests that Bellerophon lived here with his winged horse Pegasus, with a king-like tomb in the necropolis dedicated by the citizens of Lycia.

Great adventure - Loved this tour. It allowed me free time to walked the grove which is beautiful. Bring water shoes to this tour or you can buy a pair inside the grove. The ruins of Tlos were also beautiful and as everything in Turkey full of history. I was lucky to have the nicest, caring, and knowledgeable tour guide Sevgi (hopefully I spelled it right).

Brilliant! - We had the best time on this day trip which included a massive Water Fight, Caves, Trout Farm (including a perfectly fine lunch for the Price-I had the Trout which came from the pond I was sitting next to) then onwards to Silikent gorge but it's definitely worth paying the extra to go on the river first (rubber single dinghy's which can be roped together up to 3 people) this was freezing but so funny and memorable.
The gorge is amazing and we went up about 25 mins but if you go on your own here you could spend all day.
Last up was the Mud Bath (load of rubbish in regards to health benefits but what a laugh and a giggle it was) if you do go in Oct, please remember to wash off the mud it's a freezing cold shower 🥶
Sam Sam Sam the guide was excellent and helped inform and give us all a laugh along the way. The buses were a bit rag-tag but ok and the music was initially far too loud for all the passengers and after a chat with Sam it was turned down to a decent background noise level which allows you to admire the views in a more peaceful way.
My wife, son 17 and daughters 13 and 10 all loved it and at the end an incredibly reasonable price for professional quality photos of the day.
What a bargain this is (would cost 4 times this in the UK)
Thanks to the team and will definitely look to do another trip with you when we return next year (first time in Turkey and we love it here so much more friendly than Spain)
