Tour overview
Dalyan brings a change of scenery after Fethiye’s coastal bays: the day combines a road journey with a river boat through reed-lined channels. The programme includes Sultaniye’s mud baths, lunch beside the water and a view of the Kaunos rock tombs from below. The archaeological site is not entered, so choose a separate visit if walking among the ruins is your priority.
At İztuzu there is time for a beach walk or a swim before the boat returns upriver. Turtle sightings depend on wild animals and cannot be promised. Participation in the mud bath is optional. The package includes the river boat, mud-bath admission, lunch, an English-speaking guide, passenger insurance and return hotel transport; beach admission, drinks and snacks are separate.
Collection covers Fethiye, Çalış, Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Ovacık, with the exact stop and time confirmed for your address. The published day runs approximately 08:30–18:30; pickup order and traffic can change it. Bring swimwear, a towel, sun protection and money for extras. There are several boat boardings and uneven surfaces, so discuss any assistance needed before reserving.
