Ephesus & Pamukkale — £82
Unforgettable memories as you step back in time
and walk the marble streets of this impressive
open-air museum, one of the most important
archeological sites in the world. See the famous
Artemisia, one of the 7 Wonders of the Ancient
World and follow in the footsteps of Anthony &
Cleopatra. A visit to the House of the Virgin Mary
is often included, reputed to be her last resting
place and now a site of Pilgrimage. People travel
from all over the world to visit Ephesus, don't
miss it! Literally translated to mean 'Cotton
Castle', Pamukkale is an incredible formation of
calcium and sulphur deposits down the
mountain-side overlooking a valley. Natural
pools of spring water add to the magic,
especially a swim in Cleopatra's pool amongst
the ancient marble columns. Considered as the
8th Wonder of the World, Pamukkale is
spectacularly set amongst the largest Necropolis
(ancient cemetary) in Anatolia.
Turkish Bath — £11
No visit to Turkey is complete without
experiencing a Turkish bath, the ultimate in
pampering and total relaxation. After body
exfoliation and a foamy soap down, a full body
massage eases the stresses and strains to help
you unwind. Also an excellent way of prolonging
your tan so best at the start of your holiday.
Med Cruise — £14
Cruise the crystal clear blue waters of the
Mediterranean, visiting unspoilt bays and
uninhabited islands. Enjoy the glorious
swimming, snorkelling and sunbathing
opportunities. A day on a boat is equivalent to 3
on the beach! Including a sumptuous lunch, sail
the beautiful Turkish coastline in complete peace
and tranquility.
Turkish Night — £25
Kayakoy
A great example of traditional Turkish
entertainment for the whole family. In the Fethiye
area, hosted in the beautiful village of Kayakoy,
in the Marmaris vicinity, the Kervansaray that
formed part of the silk trade route. Join us to
sample the local cuisine including mezes and
drink. Folk dancers perform dances from regions
throughout Turkey plus the glamorous belly
dancer to make the night complete.
Dalyan Farewell — £40
An absolutely superb way to spend the last day
of your holiday, especially for those on a night
flight. No need to hang around your hotel at a
loose end, instead you will be whisked away to
enjoy the delights of Dalyan. Taking all your
luggage, you will leave your belongings safely
locked on the coach with the driver, while you
enjoy a traditional river boat cruise up the
Dalyan Delta to the mud baths for a bit of beauty
therapy! Dalyan is a conservation area,
especially due to the existence of the Caretta
Caretta (loggerhead) turtle, so thanks to David
Bellamy this area is completely unspoilt and
retains its natural beauty. After lunch, the cruise
continues to Iztuzu beach which separates the
river from the sea for an afternoon of swimming
and sunshine. On return to the village of Dalyan
you will check into a local hotel where you will
be allocated your own room for the evening
enabling you to shower, change and rest. Dinner
is included and the transfer will only take 25-30
minutes back to Dalaman airport — a perfect way
to end a perfect holiday!
