Detailed Itinerary

The adventure begins at 7:00 AM with pickup from your hotel in Bodrum. During the transfer to Dalyan, we will make a brief stop for you to enjoy breakfast. Upon arrival at the river, you will board a boat to sail along this waterway connecting the Mediterranean Sea with Lake Köycegiz.

During the cruise, you will pass by the Rock Tombs of the Kings of Kaunos, Lycian structures carved into the rock dating back to 4000 BC. Then, we will stop at Iztuzu Beach, famous for its fine sand and as a nesting site for loggerhead sea turtles, where you can swim and relax.

Afterwards, you will enjoy a buffet-style lunch at a riverside restaurant, with a variety of salads, traditional dishes, fruits, and desserts. Re-energized, we will head to the Dalyan thermal mud baths for a mud bath and a dip in the sulfur pools, ideal for revitalizing the skin.
