Oludeniz, a few minutes from Fethiye on the Turquoise Coast, became one of Turkey's best-loved resorts soon after the area opened to tourism in the 1960s, thanks to its sheltered lagoon and pale beach backed by pine-clad mountains. This six-day holiday keeps you based in Oludeniz for five nights and mixes history, beach time, home-style cooking, a traditional Turkish bath and a classic river trip to Dalyan, with airport transfers from and to Dalaman included.
The first guided day climbs to the Lycian rock-cut Tomb of Amyntas above Fethiye, carved for a man of high rank and offering a wide view over the town and bay. You then wander the stone lanes of Kayakoy, an abandoned Greek village with more than a hundred roofless houses and several churches spread over the hillside, and have lunch at a restaurant in the middle of the village before an afternoon of swimming and relaxing on Oludeniz beach. The next day you return to Kayakoy for a hands-on cooking lesson at a local restaurant, learning Turkish recipes from a village cook and eating your dishes for lunch, followed by free time and shopping in Fethiye town centre.
Day four begins with a visit to a hamam, timed to suit you, and continues with more free time in town. On day five you travel about an hour to Dalyan, a former fishing village named after its traditional fish traps, and board a boat along the reed-lined delta past the rock tombs of ancient Kaunos. You coat yourself in the sulphur mud baths, call at a gold shop and relax on Iztuzu Beach, the nesting ground of loggerhead turtles. Five nights of hotel accommodation in Oludeniz, five breakfasts and two lunches, guided Oludeniz, cooking, Turkish bath and Dalyan tours, a professional English-speaking guide and air-conditioned transport are included.

On arrival at Dalaman Airport our team meets you and drives you along the coast to your hotel in Oludeniz. After collecting your room key you are free to enjoy the beach promenade and the views of the lagoon for the rest of the day. Overnight in Oludeniz.
After breakfast the guided tour starts at the Lycian rock tombs above Fethiye, where the finest facade belongs to the Tomb of Amyntas, a person of high standing. Take time for photographs of the town and bay spread out below. Next you drive to Kayakoy and explore the ghost town, an abandoned Greek village of more than a hundred ruined houses with a few churches standing at different levels of the slope. Lunch is served at a local restaurant in the heart of the village. In the afternoon you reach Oludeniz beach to swim in the clear Mediterranean water or simply relax on the sand, with a photo stop on the way back. Overnight in Oludeniz.
Following breakfast you are collected from your hotel and driven to a local restaurant in Kayakoy for a professional cooking lesson. Learning Turkish cuisine from a local cook is one of the best ways to understand village life, and the peaceful setting lets you enjoy a typical Turkish village day. You prepare the dishes yourself and enjoy them as lunch. Afterwards you spend some free time browsing the shops of Fethiye town centre, then return to your hotel. Overnight in Oludeniz.
After breakfast we pick you up for a visit to a hamam, arranged according to your preference and the opening hours of the bath. The Turkish bath, practised throughout the country for centuries, combines warmth, steam and a thorough scrub for a wonderfully relaxed feeling. Later you have free time for shopping in the town centre before returning to your hotel, and the rest of the day is at leisure. Overnight in Oludeniz.
After breakfast you travel roughly an hour to Dalyan, a small town surrounded by nature that takes its name from the fish traps once used here. Along its long harbour front, lined with wooden boats, you board your cruise and glide through the delta, passing the dramatic temple-fronted tombs cut into the cliffs above the river. Then it is time for the natural sulphur mud baths, where you cover yourself from head to toe in mud believed to cleanse the skin. The tour also includes a stop at a Turkish gold shop and time to sunbathe on Iztuzu Beach, famous for its loggerhead turtles. Transfer back to Oludeniz for the night.
Enjoy breakfast and free time until your transfer to Dalaman Airport for your flight home, with the colours of the Turquoise Coast still fresh in your mind.

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!
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!
