Pick up from Dalaman or Antalya Airport.
Private Transfer to Kas and check in to your Hotel.
Day 2 - Glass boat to Kekova, Kekova island, Sunken city
This is a stunning, and relaxing daily boat trip.
Kekova is one of the most beautiful spots on the Mediterranean.
You will have an opportunity to visit the tiny village of Kalekoy (SIMENA) and
to swim in lovely bays with turquoise water.
Then you will visit the sunken city that was destroyed by a series of earthquakes at the turn of the first millennium.
The ancient city’s remains are visible through your glass boat.
Because it is an archeologically protected area, no swimming is permitted, but
you will later be stopping at Tersane Bay, where there are plenty of opportunities to view more sunken ruins whilst swimming and
snorkelling.
Day 3 - Xanthos, Patara & Saklikent Jeep Safari
Drive to the ancient city of Xanthos and visit the site from Xanthos to Saklikent
which is Turkeys longest canyon. We will have a lunch break on the way and spend

Day 5 - Canoeing Xanthos & Saklikent Gorge

The river flows from the mountain springs that emerge at Saklikent Gorge and end at Patara, the longest sandy beach along
the Turkish coast.
The cool mountain waters and the stunning riverside scenery, teaming with
wildlife, will make this day one to remember.
Experienced and professional guides will assist you get the most from your day and ensure that people of all ages and abilities enjoy the trip.
Itinerary includes a lunch-break, and the chance to take a mud bath and swim in the cooling waters of the Xanthos.
No previous canoeing experience is necessary.
Day 6 - Hiking Lycian Way
You will enjoy unique hiking on mountain paths and roads that pass through remote villages and ancient Lycian cities.
The natural beauty of the trail is highlighted by spectacular panoramic views of the coastal mountains and
the Mediterranean Sea.
One of them is the Kas Limanagzi Lycian Trial. You hike on the Lycian way
and arrive at Limanagzi.
This walk is one of the easiest and shortest sections to walk on the Lycian way.
You’ll have lunch at a restaurant and a swimming break at Limanagzi. We return to Kas by boat.
Day 7 - Sea Kayaking to Kekova west route
Ucagiz (Teimioussa), Kekova Islands, Sunken City, Sicak (Polemos) Bay, Aperlai, Simena
This time around we will be visiting the more special southern side of Kekova
Sunken City which can only be reached by sea kayaking.
You can discover the magical world of Kekova Sunken City, with its ruins just below the sea level and the mysterious chambers, steps and walls carved directly into the rocks.
Kekova is actually a long thin island that separates the open sea from the mainland.
The surrounding peculiar ecosystem formed by thin points and narrow bays is
stunningly quiet and peaceful.
If the weather conditions are good, we will have a chance to visit a sea cave in
the south shore of Kekova Island.
Paddling westward we plan to arrive in Sicak isthmus by lunchtime.
Guided tours tend to ignore the ancient site of Aperlai, located west of Ucagiz on the mainland and accessible only by boat from the sea and by the ancient trail on foot; the effort required to get there has ensured the preservation of another "sunken city" here, and you can plan some time on land to explore these ruins on foot.
You will then have an opportunity to visit the Aperlai ruins and witness history, after a 2+2-km walk.
