My husband and I chose Inca Tour for our honeymoon and we are so glad we did. The boutique hotel selection was beautiful and the Bosphorus dinner cruise was so romantic. Thank you for making our trip special!
3 Days Fethiye Coastal Escape: 12 Islands Boat Trip in the Gulf of Fethiye Private Tour
Highlights of the Fethiye Coastal Escape
This short three-day holiday takes you to Fethiye, a relaxed harbour town on the Turkish Mediterranean coast, framed by pine-covered hills and a wide gulf dotted with small islands. The program is built around one full day on the water, leaving the rest of your time free to settle in, walk around town and enjoy the seaside atmosphere at your own pace.
The highlight is a full-day boat trip through the Gulf of Fethiye, widely known as the 12 Islands tour. Departing from Fethiye Harbor in the morning, the boat calls at four to six bays and islands. At Flat Island the water is very shallow and calm, which makes the small beach ideal for children and less confident swimmers. At Cleopatra's Bath you can swim near the boat or look around the old bath house, and at Dock Yard Island you will see the remains of an important ancient shipyard that was largely destroyed by the earthquake of 1957. Lunch is served on board, and the rest of the day is about swimming, sunbathing and enjoying the views across the gulf.
Please note that the 12 Islands boat trip operates only between May and September. For travel dates outside this season, the boat day can be replaced by an alternative excursion such as a visit to Saklikent Gorge, among the longest canyons in the country, or a jeep safari through the countryside around Fethiye.
The package includes two nights of hotel accommodation in Fethiye, two breakfasts, one lunch on the boat and two dinners, arrival and departure transfers from Dalaman Airport or the Fethiye bus station, transport in an air-conditioned, non-smoking vehicle and the services of a professional English-speaking guide on the boat day. It is an easy, compact way to add a few days of sea and sunshine to a longer journey through Turkey, or to enjoy a quick coastal break on its own.

What Our Travellers Say
Real, verified reviews from travellers who explored Turkey with us.
It was important for us to have a guide who spoke Russian, and Ender was wonderful. He explained every detail at Dolmabahce Palace. The Princes Islands day trip was a beautiful break from the busy city.
Our guide Ender was incredibly knowledgeable about Turkish history. The hot-air balloon ride at sunrise in Cappadocia was the highlight of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized β from airport pick-up to the last d...
Ender was our Italian-speaking guide and we felt like family. He took us to local spots tourists never see. The hotel choice in Sultanahmet was perfect for walking everywhere.
10+ years later we still talk about our Cappadocia balloon ride and the Bosphorus sunset cruise. Some memories are timeless. Thank you Inca Tour!
