What to expect

Your day begins with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Marmaris at around 08:30 AM. Sit back and enjoy the scenic drive as we head to Dalyan.

After about an hour’s drive, we arrive at the famous Dalyan mud baths. Known for their sulphur-rich hot springs, these natural thermal pools are both fun and beneficial for your skin. Cover yourself in the mineral-rich mud, let it dry under the sun, and rinse off for a rejuvenated feeling.

Next, you’ll enjoy a freshly prepared lunch at a charming riverside restaurant. While you savour the local flavours, your guide will share fascinating tales and legends of the ancient city of Caunos and its majestic Rock Tombs, visible in the distance.

After lunch, hop aboard a riverboat for a serene cruise through the Dalyan delta. This tranquil journey winds through lush landscapes and narrow waterways, offering beautiful photo opportunities as you make your way to the coast.

Our final stop is the iconic Turtle Beach, a natural haven for the endangered Loggerhead turtles. You’ll have some free time to relax, swim, or—with a bit of luck—spot one of these gentle creatures near the shoreline.

As the day winds down, you’ll head back to Marmaris by bus.

Such an amazing trip and really well planned. Our guides Dimitri and Barat were excellent. They were both so much fun and extremely knowledgeable about everything we asked and regarding the turtles and tombs. The trip is 100% worth doing and I can't recommend enough.

Het is best een lange busreis. Het modderbad was leuk om te ervaren, maar wel een beetje commercieel opgezet. De lunch was prima verzorgd. De boottrip over de rivier nasr de Turtle beach was mooi. Het lijkt een beetje op de buitenkant van Giethoorn tussen het riet door varen richting het open water. De Turtle beach zelf is een beschermd gebied. Je ziet enkel een paar schildpadden bij de aanleg van de boot. Daar achter lag een verrassend mooi strand waar we heerlijk gezwommen hebben.
