Talk of the Town show - Bobbie Kent's Play Girls

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!
