Alp the guide tells everything with great enthusiasm and it is greatly appreciated that he avoids scamming tourists with prices in stores. He told us everything with a lot of knowledge making the story very enjoyable. One drawback, the buffet food was very bad

Description

A sunken city, ancient ruins carved into the mountain and the church of St. Nicholas - what more could you ask for on this excursion to Kekova and Demre from Antalya? We'll discover its beauty!

Kekova + Demre Tour

At the appointed time we'll pick you up from your hotel in Antalya. From there we'll take you to the port of Demre to board a traditional Turkish boat to sail to the island of Kekova.

We'll sail the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean and discover the remains of the ancient submerged city of Simena. You'll learn all about the legends of this place as we disembark to get a closer look at the island. We'll also stop at Burc Bay for a dip in the sea.

Back on the mainland, from the town of Demre, we'll head to the ancient city of Mira to visit the amphitheatre and rock-cut tombs!

All this exploring works up an appetite! So for lunch, we'll enjoy a traditional Turkish dish. Then we'll continue the tour to see the church of St. Nicholas, can you guess what this church has to do with Father Christmas? You'll soon find out! If you wish, you can also go inside the church at your own pace.

Finally, we'll take you back to your hotel in Antalya, where we'll arrive 10 hours after pickup.
