Full description
Your day begins with a relaxed morning pickup directly from your hotel in Side, where our comfortable air-conditioned coach is waiting to whisk you eastward along the sparkling Mediterranean coast. As the road hugs the shoreline, your local guide shares stories of the region while pine forests, banana groves and turquoise bays roll past the window, building anticipation for the dramatic headland of Alanya rising ahead.
In Alanya the adventure truly unfolds as you glide up to the magnificent castle aboard the modern cable car, with the whole peninsula unfolding beneath you in panoramic glory. You will explore the well-preserved medieval fortress walls, admire the famous octagonal Red Tower that has guarded the harbour for eight centuries, and step into the cool, naturally humid Damlatas Cave with its glittering stalactites just steps from celebrated Cleopatra Beach. There is time to soak up the views, capture unforgettable photos and feel the layered history of this proud seaside city.
After a hearty lunch at a welcoming local restaurant, you will have free time to wander the bustling harbour and colourful bazaar, where you can browse for spices, sweets and souvenirs or simply sip Turkish tea by the water. As the afternoon mellows, we board the coach for the scenic ride back to Side, returning you to your hotel with a camera full of memories and a fresh love for the timeless charm of Alanya. Reserve your place now and let us show you the very best of this legendary coast.
