Day 4: Kas-Kekova-Saint Nicholas-Sunken City Tour -Overnight in Antalya
Our adventure starts with a picturesque coastal drive, en route to Myra where we pause briefly to soak in the ambiance. Once known as Biblical Myra, envelop yourself in the rich tapestry of history that surrounds St. Nicholas, the beloved bishop whose legends laid the foundations for the Santa Claus we cherish today. Explore the awe-inspiring Rock Tombs, gaze upon the grandeur of the Roman Theater, and roam the sacred grounds of the Church of St. Nicholas.
Our exploration then sets sail toward the mystical sunken city near the island of Kekova, accessible by boat from Ucagiz and Simena. Here, the remnants of ancient civilizations beckon beneath the waves, and time stands still. Seize the opportunity for an invigorating swim in the crystalline waters during our brief stop—remember to bring your swimsuit along.
The voyage concludes with a leisurely drive back on the serene coastal road, ensuring we return to Antalya.
Day 5: Aspendos-Manavgat River-Side - Flight to Sweet Home
The journey starts with the Aspendos Ancient Theatre, a marvel of ancient engineering. Constructed in the 2nd century A.D., this theatre stands as one of the best-preserved of its kind. Its grandeur is so timeless that it still serves as a vibrant venue for festivals and concerts to this day, able to host an astounding 15,000 spectators.
Our next destination is Side, a city with an intriguing history as a bustling port and the largest slave market in the region. Side presents an array of Roman-era relics, including its expansive theatre, the Roman Baths, and the resplendent Temple of Apollo.
