A visit to pamper your skin in the Dalyan mud baths and soak in the sulphur pool is included
After lunch, you'll dock at Iztuzu beach, a renowned sanctuary for loggerhead turtles
There's use of a no-frills hotel nearby to freshen up and refuel for the flight home
An expert local guide will share their unrivalled knowledge of Dalyan and its wildlife

What to expect

If your return flight departs late in the evening, then this is a great way to make the most of your last day in Turkey. There's lots to look forward to, including a scenic Dalyan riverboat cruise, an anti-ageing mud bath and a riverside lunch. You'll also have some free time on Iztuzu beach, renowned for its turtle sanctuary. At the end of the day, you'll be able to freshen up and refuel before your flight in a nearby no-frills hotel. Ceren, one of our expert local guides, says, 'Nature rules at Iztuzu Beach, aka Turtle beach. A magical spot with a dramatic setting, new resorts were planned here in the 1980s, but these were scrapped and instead some areas of the 4km long beach are protected for nesting Loggerhead turtles.'

Cruise down the River Dalyan on an eco-boat designed to minimise impact on wildlife, heading for the mud baths. Treat your skin with the anti-ageing clay and have a dip in the warm sulphur pool. After a tasty lunch of freshly prepared local specialities at a riverside restaurant, rejoin your river boat to sail past the rock-hewn Lycian Tombs dating to 400BC.

Next, we'll set sail for Iztuzu beach, a haven of natural beauty. There's free time for swimming, sunbathing and enjoying the unblemished surroundings. Finally, we'll head back to a local no-frills hotel for a chance to freshen up. You won't go hungry either, with a buffet dinner to tuck into. And what's more, you'll have the use of a hotel room right up until the transfer to the airport.

Vulcan was a good tour guide. His explanation about the tourist spot was great and very informative. The lunch was ok. The mud bath as an experience. If you have a sensitive skin, dont do it. Don't forget to bring your own towel as it will cost 250tlr. Bring your own water was well to keep you hydrated.

Great day to spend the last day with plenty packed in. The river cruise especially was fantastic and we managed to get to see the turtles. I did have issues with getting to some of the places because of my mobility but the staff and other guests helped me on and off the boat as there was a high step. The only think was a disappointment was the food at the river cafe stop for lunch and drink cost there which were much higher than on boat. Hotel for shower and rest good idea and close to airport.

Really enjoyed the sailing / cruising. My only issue - a minor one was the cats at the restaurant that were walking around and begging for food. There were signs up not the feed them but some in our party were not happy with them under the tables tapping their legs.

A perfect mix if ever there was one.Once you're strapped in, the adventure begins with a drive through the pine-cloaked countryside, towards sleepy villages and secluded bays. Pass traditionally dressed locals riding on donkeys as you climb through the mountains and drive through some of the region's time-warp villages and a forest that's been restored after a devastating wildfire.Next, stop by Kızkumu beach, a secluded pebble beach in a sheltered cove, for a well-deserved dip in the sea. Finally, there's a stop in a forest to enjoy a dip in the natural plunge pool of a pretty waterfall. It's a photogenic spot, and offers a great chance to cool down in the summer months and muck around with a water fight.
