Excursions & day trips

Kekova, Myra and St Nicholas Tour with Lunch and Boat Trip

Authentic cuisine, a lost city and Santa – this trip offers an eclectic mix of attractions. You'll glide along the coast to Kekova island and its sunken town, then visit the church of St Nicholas and the ancient city of Myra. Ahmet, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The highlight of the day for me has to be the ruined Lycian city of Myra. The rock-cut friezes carved with theatrical masks and the stacked tombs hewn into the cliffs are a unique sight. It still takes my breath away that parts of this site are thought to be around 2,500 years old.'Proceedings get under way with a scenic drive with a comfort stop at the Sahin Hill in Kumluca. Next, sail to Kekova island, a protected area famed for its underwater ruins. These are the relics of the ancient town of Simena, partially submerged by an earthquake in the 2nd century. There's time for a swim in the warmer months – the water is clear and inviting – it would be difficult to resist a dip in the sea. But if the weather doesn't permit a boat trip, there's a visit to the fascinating Demre museum instead.After a tasty lunch of typical dishes freshly prepared in a local restaurant, it's time to visit the Church of St Nicholas, who's better known today as Santa Claus. Finally, you'll have time to tour the site of the ancient city of Myra to explore the well-preserved amphitheatre and see the intricately carved rock tombs, high in the cliff face.

Things to do in Antalya

A popular vacation destination on the Turkish Riviera, Antalya is famous for its blissful beaches, historic sites and buzzing nightlife. A true paradise for those who enjoy unspoiled nature and water sports, the area is also ideal for those who prefer a cultural vacation, thanks to sights such as Hadrian's Gate, many archaeological sites and some remarkable contemporary architecture. A perfect blend of ancient and modern, in a destination that invites you to savor every moment.

Top six things to do in Antalya

1. Get lost in the streets of Kaleiçi

Kaleiçi is the historic center of this charming Turkish city. Lose yourself in its narrow, cobblestone streets and admire the surrounding buildings, which are Ottoman-era and feature terracotta roofs. There are plenty of enticing sights, among these why not drop by Kale Kapısı, the main square, then visit the 15th-century İki Kapılar Hanı covered bazaar, and admire the tiles of the 18th-century Tekeli Mehmet Paşa Camii mosque.

2. Hike the Taurus Mountains

You'll likely catch a glimpse of the Taurus Mountains from Antalya - a truly unmissable natural wonder. Rugged and fascinating, these peaks offer hiking trails, 4x4 safaris, rafting, and plenty of other activities. If you prefer a more relaxing experience, visit the village of Ormana, famous for its "button houses," buildings constructed using a traditional technique that dates back some 700 years.

3. Take a cruise through Green Canyon

Be lulled by the waters of Green Canyon Lake, a pristine gem set among the Taurus Mountains. Take a boat tour of this nature reserve framed by greenery, picture-postcard scenery, and rock walls. The lake is the only one in Turkey that has been formed by a dam, and with its emerald-colored waters it provides fulfilling moments of relaxation.

4. Have fun at The Land of Legends theme park

This action-packed destination is the perfect option for spending a day of fun with the whole family and cooling off on hot days. The Land of Legends is a beautifully themed water park that offers attractions for all tastes and ages. Slides, roller coasters, the classic lazy river, a wave pool and even a 5D cinema. All in a dreamlike setting surrounded by white sandy beaches and palm trees.

5. Visit the archaeological site of Perge

This UNESCO World Heritage candidate site is located a few kilometers away from Antalya and makes an exciting excursion, especially for those who love history. Perge tells of the greatness of ancient civilizations with the impressive ruins of the amphitheater, many intricate mosaics, and the famous temple of Artemis. Join a guided tour of this vast archaeological area to discover the history of the area's early settlements.

6. Taste the local cuisine

Antalya is particularly famous for its street food. Taste the shish kebab, a lighter version of the classic kebab, made with lamb and served on skewers. Also delicious is gozleme, a savory pie stuffed with cheese, spinach and minced meat. For the best start to your day, try the Turkish breakfast, typically consisting of many different dishes, including eggs, jams, yogurt, vegetables, cheese and hot tea. And for dinner be sure to order meze, shareable appetizers that will introduce you to the many flavors of this culinary tradition.

Plan your trip to Antalya

When’s the best time to visit Antalya?

Antalya's climate is typically Mediterranean, with mild winters and very hot summers. The best time to visit is spring and early fall. From mid-June to the end of August is high season, so you'll find more tourists but also a busier calendar of events. Avoid the winter months, which are particularly rainy.

How many days should you spend in Antalya?

Antalya enjoys a strategic location, not only for access to the beautiful beaches of the Turkish Riviera but also to reach sites of great historical and cultural value. That's why we recommend that you spend at least a week in the area, so you can alternate moments of pure relaxation with sightseeing and nature excursions.

What are the best beaches in Antalya?

Among the most attractive beaches in Antalya, to the west is Konyaaltı Beach, which is spacious and well-equipped, ideal for those who need good amenities for a relaxed beach day. East of downtown Antalya, on the other hand, is Lara beach, perfect for those traveling with children. If you are looking for a wild and unspoiled beach, don't miss the three coves of Phaselis, near the archaeological site. Finally, Cirali beach is a natural wonder with crystal clear sea.
