- Marmaris - The tour begins with a convenient hotel pick-up, followed by boarding the boat. The first destination is Aquarium Bay, where a refreshing swim awaits.
- Iztuzu Beach - This stunning sandy beach, known for being a nesting site for caretta carettas, is reached by transferring from the larger boat to a smaller one to navigate the canal.
- Lycian Rock Tombs - As the cruise progresses, the historical Rock Tombs come into view, accompanied by insightful commentary from the guide. These temple tombs are remnants of the Kaunos necropolis, which once boasted over 170 rock-cut graves. Dating back to the mid-4th century BC, they exhibit Anatolian, Greek, and Persian influences. Although currently inaccessible, their majestic presence, best viewed from across the Dalyan River or from a boat, leaves a lasting impression. These sights are often featured on tourist guides, travel brochures, and even TV documentaries.
- Dalyan Mud Bath - The Dalyan mud baths, rich in sulfur and minerals, offer a soothing and rejuvenating experience for the skin. Regular treatments can tighten skin and reduce wrinkles, with claims of making visitors look 10 years younger! After the mud dries, it’s time to rinse off in the hot springs. Facilities include showers, toilets, and a cafeteria.
- Iztuzu Beach - A 50-minute swimming break is enjoyed at Iztuzu Beach, a 5km stretch of sand at the end of the Dalyan channel, connecting Köyceğız Lake to the Mediterranean. Renowned as one of the world’s most beautiful beaches, it captivates visitors with its fine sand and Mediterranean waters. As a crucial nesting site for the endangered Caretta sea turtles, beach access is restricted to between 08:00 and 20:00.
- Marmaris - After enjoying the beach, the journey continues by returning to the larger boat. Arrival back in Marmaris is approximately two and a half hours later, around 19:30.

Good places terrible owner of boat!!! Find another tour - Was really good at turtle beach. The beach is great. The thermal and mud baths are good but the boat was full of flies! Owner of boat was rude and would not sort it! The dog on boat was covered in flies and it was all over the inclusive food omg! W had to throw it out even the food be bought on way back was just black with flies! Health and safety risk and would not go again with them.
The owner was rude as well when we asked what was going on with our transport back??? I am disabled and they made us walk a good while to the taxi rank in the city! Was not good and they don’t care at all! Never going again with this lot so take another tour boat ppl!!!

Worse tour ever - Half a day was wasted in the boat when we could have gone to the 1st stop (turtle beach) in 2hrs. The boat staff took this time to encourage people to spend money to buy drinks and food. The free lunch included was cold and disgusting-the salad was not fresh and had no dressing and the main meal was a cold chicken fillet which was not cooked properly, 3 pieces of chicken nuggets, rice and a piece of bread. Most of the people in the boat hardly ate their food or just tasted it. When we got to the mud baths, we were just given about 30mins and rushed to get back to the boat whereas we could’ve stayed longer if only we did’nt spend half the day being inside the boat! Sad to say it was the worst tour I’ve been on in Marmaris. I’ve been to other tours and they were much better. My family who was with me calls this the eating tour as most of the time was spent in the boat spending money to buy food and drinks.
