Private Dalyan Mud Baths, River Cruise, Ancient Rock Tombs

Basque in the sleepy riverside town of Dalyan, boasting impressive ancient rock tombs, a beautiful river, therapeutic mud baths and of course, the local loggerhead turtles, on this private tour.

Sail down the emerald green and clear blue river Dalyan while overlooking the peaceful landscape that surrounds you. Sit back and enjoy the relaxing journey under the sun and look out for the fascinating Rock Tombs dating back to 400BC found nestled on the riverside hill face. Here lies the ancient Kaunos Kings, where all their riches and treasures would have been buried alongside them.

Then it's time to rewind with a visit to the sulphuric mud baths which lie by the riverbank. Plunge yourself in and slap some mud all over your body. Bathe and allow this natural substance to work its magic; afterwards, wash off in the warm sulphur pool and admire your silky smooth skin.

Next, tuck into a delicious local lunch by the riverside before travelling to the famous Iztuzu Beach, breeding ground of the loggerhead turtles, the world's largest, hard-shell turtle, known as caretta-caretta and a protected area. Not only is this one of the most beautiful beaches in Turkey stretching over 4.5km but hopefully you will get see some of these adorable creatures!
