Full description

The Dalyan Delta, with a long, golden sandy beach at its mouth, is a nature conservation area, home to plenty of wildlife, including sea turtles. On your visit to Marmaris, enjoy a full day on the water with a boat tour of the area. Sail down the river for a short time and stop to enjoy the mud baths and sulfur springs. Then take time to eat lunch before your boat continues to explore the maze of channels in this tranquil dream world. High on the cliff face, at a bend in the river and above the fascinating ancient harbor city of Caunos, observe the 2,000-year-old Lycian tombs that were carved in to the rock. Then land on the unspoiled sands of Turtle Beach and relax, with the opportunity to walk around, sunbathe, swim, and more.

All very well organized, pick up at the hotel as scheduled, comprehensive guides pleasant trip, visit to the site at scheduled times with explanations and organization in the logo, I did not like the forced stops in the markets with disproportionate prices even for a coffee that was charged three times as much

Successful excursion as offered

Price / performance ratio ok. It was nice that there weren't that many people on the boat. The program was as described. Nice weather with a swim, what more could you want. Only the meeting point was a bit difficult for us from Mein Schiff1. But you could take a taxi.

The journey there was already dramatic .. the boat was small, you had to sit with 6 people at a table with wooden benches. Fine, but not for so many hours in a row .. The guide spoke poor English and there were no turtles (September 8) on Turtle beach. - the Dalyan and the rocks were very beautiful and the stop where you could take a mud bath was fun!
