Transfer from Dalaman Airport to Dalyan. Welcome tour of Dalyan with local guide giving information about the local history and culture. Settle in to a local hotel.

DAY 2:
Trekking. The next day we walk over a hill to the bay of Ekincik and its unspoilt beach. It is difficult to access by road and so most visitors arrive by yacht. The route we take allows us to explore the ancient ruins of Kaunos, with its Roman Baths, Acropolis, harbour and many other ruins including a Medieval castle. We walk through pine forests which hug the dramatic coastline and arrive in Ekincik for a special picnic lunch followed by relaxing swimming in the azure crystal waters of the Mediterranean. The journey back is by local wooden boat, which takes one and a half hours along the rugged coastline, around Iztuzu beach and winding along the river under the ancient rock tombs to Dalyan.

DAY 3:
Jeep Safari. From Dalyan we travel past forests of the frankincense tree before climbing the Boga Dagi 2000m mountain to the high plateau village of Agla. Along the way we have the opportunity to view the flora and fauna of the region and visit a special lake where we have lunch. Wildflowers are plentiful in the springtime and the cool mountain air of Agla provides a respite from the summer heat of the coast. Overnight in tents on the high plateau of Agla, a night full of stars, camp fire and a large BBQ.

DAY 4:
White water Rafting. Akkoprü is the small village from where this exciting day will start. This village is situated in the wilds of Turkey on the Dalaman river, being the best river for white water rafting in Southern Turkey.

The cool air and the crashing sound of the cold, crystal, flowing water add to the atmosphere and adventure of the canyon climb. After our descent and return to Dalyan, we rest.

One Week Mountain Biking Tour

Overview:
Dalyan has put together an exciting one week biking program which takes in this area of outstanding beauty in an imaginative and varied manner, an itinerary of which follows. Every night is spent in a hotel in Dalyan and each day explores a new part of this spectacular corner of Turkey. The bikes we use are all comfortable, new, 21 speed mountain bikes and a professional guide takes care of you every day.

One Week Mountain Biking

DAY 1:
Transfer from Dalaman Airport to Dalyan. Welcome tour of Dalyan with local guide giving information about the local history and culture. Settle in to a local hotel.

DAY 2:
Caretta Caretta Tour. 30km On the first day we cycle to the local four and a half kilometer long beach, famously known as the Caretta Caretta beach, where for millions of years the endangered turtles have been nesting. The route is fairly straightforward apart from one mountain where we stop to rest and enjoy lunch. The village where we stop is called Gökbel and has fine views over the beach and river delta.

DAY 3:
Village Tour. 55km This tour gives you a vivid insight into local Turkish life. We visit numerous villages, sample their local cuisine, tea and their generous amounts of warm hospitality. Cycling through aromatic forests of Frankincense trees, orange trees and over many fresh babbling brooks, we encounter the ancient village of Eskikoy, with its Ottoman houses, mosque and old gardens. Stops will be made for swimming in the ice cold river and shimmering warm lake.

DAY 4:
Koycegiz and Mud Bath Tour. 60km We sail up the river by traditional Turkish fishing boat to the lake and then on to the small market town of Köyceğiz which is situated on the Northern shores of the lake. The journey takes us around the lake through gently sloping cool forests on to the tiny settlement of Sultaniye. In Sultaniye you can bathe in the relaxing hot springs where naturally heated sulfurous waters come steaming up out of the ground. After lunch we cycle further down the lake to the world famous Dalyan mud baths. The naturally occurring mud bubbles up from the ground, and after generous application to your skin and washing it off in the small stream, your skin feels the softest it has ever been. Your skin’s pores open and wrinkles are smoothed away, making you look ten years younger! The last stop of the day is at the ancient city of Kaunos where ruins from thousands of years of occupation of this site can be explored. Old rowing boats take us the short journey back across the river to Dalyan.

DAY 5:
Mountain Tour. 35km By jeep we take you 900m up Ölmez mountain. At the top we are surrounded by historical ruins, built on the once fabled mountain of Olympus. From here we look down through forests and canyons to the delta and lake gleaming far below. Usually the days are crystal clear in Turkey and so although a long long distance away, more often than not the Greek island of Rhodes can be seen on the horizon, as well as the bay of Marmaris. After a tea break we cycle 35km down the mountain through forests and fields to arrive for lunch in Ekincik, a small but stunning little village and beach. After swimming we head back by boat to the Dalyan delta and the town of Dalyan.

DAY 6:
Asi Koyu Tour. 50km The start is at a height of 450m on Bozburun Hill overlooking Dalyan and the beach. This is the longest day, but the most rewarding. The idyllic small bay of Asi Koyu is a remote beach out of reach of all but the most determined tourists, as it is found only by an experienced local guide who knows the country tracks intimately. After ample swimming in the azure sea the ride back is mountainous and will ensure a good sleep.

DAY 7:
Relax........ Shopping in the cheap local market for local crafts and fruit is followed by a BBQ beach trip to Iztuzu beach where we consume large quantities of finely prepared food by the larger than life Ali. In the evening we go to a Hamam, or Turkish Bath, where we have a sauna, skin exfoliation and massage, leaving us feeling completely revitalised and fresh.

DAY 8:
Reluctantly, we say good-bye and transfer back to the airport.

One Week Photo Destination Holiday

Overview:
There is a huge amount of variety in every Photo Destination holiday and this is a typical week’s program. Holidays always start on a Monday because this is the biggest transfer day at Dalaman Airport with the widest variety of flights from the UK. Photography is best in early morning and late afternoon light so we arrange trips accordingly with rest and relaxation over the hours when the sun is high in the sky.

DAY1:
On arrival you will be met by a driver who has your name displayed on a board and will take you to your accommodation. When the full party has arrived Stephen will welcome you with a drink and everyone makes introductions. We run through the events of the week.

DAY 2:
As this is your first proper day on holiday, we go easy on you with a 9am start and a chance for a lie in! This is a day spent on a boat and it’s a delightful introduction to the area if this is your first visit to Turkey.

DAY 3:
Nothing beats walking for taking in the details of the changing landscape, so today we take a trek into the hills around Gökbel to the south of Dalyan. We leave early in the morning to avoid the heat of the day and walk for around 5 hours in easy terrain. This brings us out at Iztuzu Beach where we stop for lunch. In the afternoon we take a boat to Kaunos, the 3000 year old Lycian ruin that lies across the river from Dalyan. Fit members of the party may wish to scramble up the hill behind Kaunos for spectacular views of Dalyan in evening light.

DAY 4:
We like to take a special trip up into the mountains at Lake Bafa which is about 3 hours drive North of Dalyan. As a result we stay overnight in a lovely little hotel called the Agora which has it’s own Turkish Bath or Hammam. Because this is a small hotel you will have to share a room for the night but we think you will agree that it’s worth it.

We leave Dalyan early and stop off in the Regional Capital of Mugla to take in the weekly market. Mugla is no picture postcard destination but the market is traditional and not for tourists. As a result there is great scope for shooting moments of real Turkish life and we can stop to have breakfast.

Arriving at Bafa around lunchtime, relax for a few hours and take in the ruins of Herakleia or snooze in a hammock. As the afternoon light improves we take in the amazing rock formations that look like something out of the Flintstones or vintage Star Trek. We will have dinner on the terrace at the Agora and make some time to relax in the Hammam.

DAY 5:
Another early start and a good trek in the refreshing mountain air that will take around 5 hours. This will be with a guide from the hotel and we will have a light breakfast on the way provided by the Agora. If you don’t fancy a walk, either relax in beautiful surroundings or take an optional boat trip on the lake that can be organised with the hotel staff. We will return to the hotel around lunchtime.

On our return to Dalyan we stop off at Euromos, a deserted 5th Century BC city with a wonderful Temple to the God Zeus amongst the trees. We will return to Dalyan by dusk.

DAY 6:
Back in Dalyan, this is an easy day after all the traveling and walking. We take an early boat trip inland to Koycegiz Lake through the reed beds and onto the thermal springs and mud baths. You will find some tourists here but also great photo opportunities as people slap on mud and bathe in the hot, sulfurous spring water.

Saturday afternoon is market day in Dalyan and although not a particularly great opportunity for pictures it is an excellent spot for shopping and a real bargain. This is a chance to put your bartering skills to the test. For adrenalin junkies we can offer optional microlight flights over Dalyan or tandem paragliding from a 2000m peak. These are actually not as scary as they sound, but very exhilarating and wonderful fun.

DAY 7:
This is your last full day and we like to go out on a high note with a Jeep safari to the 12 Islands. It’s an early start and we will spend most of the day off-road on mountain tracks visiting places that cannot be used by normal cars. This keeps us away from other tourists and it’s a rather special feeling taking in some beautiful landscapes.

We stop for breakfast at the tiny cove of Asiby Koyo and wind through the hills to Ala Gol, the White Lake,before descending to the Bay of the 12 Islands. During the hot part of the day we will relax at Kille Beach where there is plenty of shade and very few other visitors. You have the option of snorkeling , parasailing or even tearing around on a floating banana which is guaranteed to raise a belly laugh (as well as a belly full of salt water!). Lunch is provided at a nearby restaurant under the trees with more opportunities to swim and relax.
As the sun sets the 12 Islands Bay is a unique area for stunning landscapes and we wind through the mountains with a breathtaking view at every turn.

DAY 8:
Back to Monday and your departure day. There are no organised trips today but subject to departure time we can review the photographic techniques discussed over the week. You will be collected by taxi or comfortable minibus in time for your return flight.

Price includes:
Return transfers from airport to accommodation by taxi or minibus; All photographic trips by boat, Jeep or comfortable minibus. Boat trips include meals; Dinner, bed and breakfast is included at Bafa Lake; Tuition and guidance with Stephen Barnett; Your own private room if you are a single traveler other than 1 night at Bafa Lake where you will have to share a room due to the small size of the hotel.

Excludes:
Plane tickets to Dalaman, Drinks

Please bring:
Camera, hiking shoes, sun cream. You will have access to a 6*17 roll film camera so bring along a few rolls of 120 film that you can develop back home. Tremendous landscape camera.

Other dates as requested. Please make a provisional booking above and we will get in touch with you.
