Jeep Safari excursion - Fethiye, Turkey.

A fantastic, fun day out for explorers of all ages. Our professional guides and drivers lead this jeep convoy expedition off the beaten track to discover real Turkish traditions, fabulous scenery and archaeological treasures all in one day. Join us as a driver or non-driver.

Stop 1 : See an important part of Turkish life first hand at a local mosque.

Stop 2 : The ancient city of Tlos is built on the slopes of a steep hill, from which there are amazing views of the surrounding countryside. We stop briefly at the foot of the hill to take photos whilst our guide briefly explains the history of ruins, which include a castle, Lycian rock tombs and a theatre. (The climb to Tlos is very challenging, so entry is not a part of our tour).

Stop 3 : It's time for a cold drink in the idyllic forest surroundings of the trout farm, where the peace is disturbed only by the sound of rushing water.

Stop 4 : See the great Turkish art of carpet and kilim-making at a traditional handicraft centre, and experience another custom: tea on the house!

Stop 5 : Saklikent Canyon is the perfect place to cool off. After a delicious al fresco lunch, there's time to relax in the shade of leafy groves by the waterside, or cross the river to walk into the gorge, which is 18km's long and 300m deep in some places, and has been eroded over thousands of years by rushing glacial waters.

Stop 6 : Joining in the mud-fight at the mud baths is not compulsory, but it is great fun to make sure the guides and drivers get stuck in too! A quick swim in the river will invigorate you before the safari continues (seasonal).

Stop 7 : Explore the ruins of Xanthos, which was the Lycians' political capital, whilst our guide explains the fascinating, sometimes gruesome, history of the once great city.

Stop 8 : Patara is the longest beach on Turkey's coast - a wide seashore of white sand as far as the eye can see, lapped by shallow sea. It's also pretty much deserted, so is a perfect place to relax and swim before heading back towards Fethiye.

Stop 9 : Driving through traditional villages, we stop for a last swim in a pool, and to hose the jeeps down, before arriving back in the resort feeling truly exhilarated, though perhaps a little dusty and weary, after a day of light-hearted fun and real adventure.
