Lycian Riviera
Six days along the Turquoise Coast — the Roman theatres of Perge and Aspendos, the church of St. Nicholas at Demre, a boat trip over the sunken city of Kekova, and the world-famous Blue Lagoon of Ölüdeniz.
Faith, history and Anatolian hospitality in one seamless journey
Six days along Türkiye's Turquoise Coast, where the Taurus Mountains fall into a sapphire sea. Wander the Roman theaters of Perge and Aspendos, stand in the church of St. Nicholas of Myra — the original Santa Claus — and glide by boat over the sunken Lycian city of Kekova. The journey winds through the harbour town of Kas, the dramatic Saklikent Gorge and the clifftop acropolis of Tlos, before ending at the world-famous Blue Lagoon of Oludeniz, with paragliders drifting down from the heights of Babadag.
Designed for partner agencies whose clients want the Mediterranean coast with real depth — ancient theatres, Lycian rock tombs and a boat trip over a sunken city, finishing with beach time at Ölüdeniz. Arrival at Antalya, departure from Dalaman, with private guiding throughout.
“Sarpedon and peerless Glaucus led the Lycians, from distant Lycia, by the eddying streams of Xanthus.”

Questions from partner agencies
When is the best season to run the Lycian Riviera tour?
April to June and September to October are ideal — warm sea, comfortable temperatures for the ancient sites and gorge, and reliable conditions for the Ölüdeniz paragliding. July and August are hot and busy on the coast but excellent for beach-focused groups; the program runs from spring through late autumn.
How do clients arrive and depart for this route?
The tour is an open-jaw itinerary: arrival is at Antalya Airport and departure is from Dalaman Airport, both major coastal gateways with wide international and domestic connections. Flights are not included, so you can ticket them from your own market; we handle every transfer, hotel and site visit on the ground.
What group size does this program suit, and is there a minimum?
It is operated as a private tour, so it scales from couples and small families to full coaches. We typically confirm from around 2 pax upward; for larger groups we assign additional guides and vehicles as needed. Tell us your expected pax and we will size the vehicle and guiding accordingly.
How much does the tour cost, and what does your net rate cover?
We quote net agency rates on application — there are no public prices, so you set your own retail margin. The rate covers 5 nights in 4–5★ hotels on half board, 4 lunches, the private Kekova boat trip, all listed entrance fees, a private licensed guide and private transport throughout. International and domestic flights, personal expenses, optional excursions and tips are not included.
Is the Ölüdeniz paragliding included in the rate?
The tandem paragliding from Babadağ is an optional excursion, charged separately and offered at the price on request, because availability and pricing move with the season and weather. The same applies to the 12 Islands boat cruise and the Kayaköy visit. We arrange any of them for your clients on request and confirm the supplement with your quote.
Do travellers need a visa for Türkiye?
Visa requirements depend on your clients' nationality; many travellers are visa-exempt or use the online e-Visa, while others apply in advance. We are a licensed DMC, not a visa authority, so please have your clients confirm the current rules for their passports before travel — we are happy to provide an invitation or confirmation letter for the booking.
Is there a single supplement for solo travellers?
Yes — hotel rates are based on double or twin occupancy, so a single supplement applies for guests requiring their own room. The supplement is set out in the net rate breakdown we send with your quote.
