Experience overview

Get ready to immerse yourself in history and nature as we explore the treasures of Alanya, Turkey. This delightful tour satisfies the history buff, the nature lover, and the sightseer alike. Our journey begins with a visit to the magnificent Alanya Castle, a medieval fortress that has withstood the test of time. Built in the 13th century by the Sultan of Seljuk atop the remains of Byzantine and Roman fortifications, this castle rests majestically on a rocky peninsula, with the Mediterranean Sea surrounding it on three sides. Several villas were built inside its walls in the 19th century, and today the castle is an open-air museum offering visitors awe-inspiring panoramic views. Next, we venture just below Alanya Castle to the mystical Damlatas Cave, a hidden gem with stunning calcite formations. Discovered in 1948 during the construction of Alanya harbor, this cave is believed to possess healing properties, particularly for those with asthmatic and rheumatoid conditions. In fact, the cave has separate visits just for medicinal purposes! Descend into its enchanting interior and admire the illuminated stalagmites and stalactites as you enjoy the cool cavern air. After our subterranean adventure, enjoy some free time in the heart of Alanya. Stroll along its vibrant streets, indulge in local cuisine, or shop for souvenirs to commemorate your journey. Alanya's bustling city center has something for everyone. Explore the many exquisite leather products and unique handicrafts, and take home a piece of Turkish craftsmanship as a memento of your unforgettable day. Secure your spot now and get ready to embark on a journey that combines history, nature, and leisure, all in one extraordinary day. Join us for an adventure you'll treasure forever.
