Get ready for a journey back in time to the ancient civilization of Lycia!
Ancient history, stunning landscapes, and cultural heritage await you on this special tour.
On this full-day excursion from Kemer, you’ll explore the sunken ruins of Kekova Island, the rock-cut tombs and ancient theater of Myra, and the sacred site where Saint Nicholas once lived.
The day begins with a morning pick-up from your hotel. The first stop includes a short breakfast break (not included in the price). Afterward, the tour continues with a scenic Kekova boat trip. Aboard our glass-bottom boat, you’ll be able to view the submerged ruins of ancient Dolchiste without getting wet. Swimming is not allowed in this protected archaeological area, but the views are unforgettable.
Following the boat tour, you'll head to Myra Ancient City, once one of the most important cities of the Lycian civilization. There, you’ll explore its magnificent rock tombs and the grand Roman theater carved into the hillside.
After a delicious lunch, the next stop is the Church of Saint Nicholas — built in 520 AD. Famous for its architecture, preserved frescoes, and the tomb of Saint Nicholas himself, this site is rich with spiritual and historical significance.
To end the day, you’ll have a short shopping break, and then return to your hotel comfortably by bus.
