Multi Activity Week
Overview:
Private Villa Group has put together an exciting one week
program which takes in the natural beauty of the region as
well as ensuring you won’t be bored!
DAY 1:
Transfer from Dalaman Airport to your accommodation in
Koycegiz or Kizilyaka. After settling in to your villa,
enjoy a welcome tour of the town with your friendly guide to
learn about the local history and culture.
DAY 2:
Boat Trip
Sail across Lake Koycegiz to ‘Turtle Beach’ on the
Mediterranean Sea. On the way bathe in the therapeutic
waters of Sultaniye Hot Springs or experience the benefits
of the mud bath. Visit the ancient city of Caunos or just
stop in front of the Lycian Rock Tombs to take pictures. If
you fancy, you can eat freshly caught, barbequed crab at the
beach, and if you are lucky catch a glimpse of a loggerhead
turtle! If you would like, on the return journey you can
visit the Carpet Weavers Association, where local women are
trained in this beautiful art, helping to keep this ancient
tradition alive.
DAY 3:
Trekking
Follow the scenic road around Lake Koycegiz and the mountain
to the ancient city of Caunos, stopping off at viewpoints
along the way. With your guide, explore and learn about
this wonderful site, which includes a magnificent
amphitheatre, acropolis and church, as well as the more
recently uncovered streets and temples.
Then
enjoy a trek to the bay of Ekincik through the pine forests
which hug the dramatic coast. Arrive in Ekincik for a
special picnic lunch followed by a relaxing swim in the warm
waters of the Mediterranean.
DAY 4:
Scuba Diving
Experience the breathtaking beauty of the underwater world
with a day of diving. We take you to beautiful bays where
the visibility in the crystal clear waters is amazing. You
are accompanied by fully trained divers who will guide you
through your first dive or simply stay with you as you make
friends with the fish. For those who don’t fancy diving,
snorkelling is another option. A superb day of discovery!
DAY 5:
White Water Rafting
Akkoprü is the small village from where this exciting day
will start. This mountain village is situated on the Dalaman
river, the best river for white water rafting in Southern
Turkey. The river flows all year round and is at its most
challenging in the spring time. You will navigate rapids of
grades 3 and 4 with as well as calm pools to relax in and
swim. At the end of the day you can watch a film of the
day’s excitement while having your lunch.
DAY 6:
Jeep
Safari
Drive along a scenic road to the mountain village of Agla,
800 metres above sea level. In the hot summer months it is
still cool here, so you can enjoy a lovely walk through the
village and pine forest, past waterfalls and mountain
streams. Sample the delicious local fare for lunch before
continuing up the mountain to a plateau, 2000 metres above
sea level. Here you can walk among the pine trees and wild
flowers around ‘Kartal Golu’ (Eagle lake). This wild and
beautiful place is covered in snow for six months of the
year, so it is a good place to escape the heat of mid
summer!
DAY 7:
Waterfall Trek
Drive five minutes from Koycegiz and hike up the mountain,
through the pine forest following the course of a rocky
stream. Your efforts are rewarded when you reach a
picturesque waterfall and shady pool, where you can swim in
the refreshingly cool water. On the way back to Koycegiz
call in at the Remo Han Horse Farm where you can ride a
thoroughbred Arab horse.
DAY 8:
Reluctantly, we say good-bye and transfer you back to the
airport.
