Jeep Safari
An excellent fun day out and one of our most popular trips. Something for
everyone ranging from history - Tlos and Xantos, natural beauty - Saklikent and
Patara and an insight into the real rural Turkey that most folks never see
including a visit to a village mosque. You can drive or be driven.Dalyan
Travel to the Dalyan Delta where David Bellamy created a conservation area for
Great Turtles. A lovely relaxing day cruising through the waterways to the
beach - have a mud bath and swim in Koygeyiz lake.
Efes and Pumakkale
Visit Ephesus, one of the largest and complete Roman Ruins in the world and then
the 'cotton castle' mineral deposits in Pumakkale. Incredible! A 2
day tour staying overnight in a 4 star hotel.
Cadianda
A truck safari to the ancient city of Cadianda and a visit to the picturesque
village of Uzumlu.
Scuba Diving
From complete beginners to qualified drivers. PADI and BSAC courses
available. You can even have a go in our pool before deciding whether to
go with the European Diving School.
Boat Trip
Heading out from Fethiye a lovely day on a sailboat that is exclusive to Yakamoz
Guests - lunch included. Wonderful!
Pony Trekking
Into the hills above Hisaronu affording fabulous views over the lagoon at Olu
Deniz. Or go to the deserted Greek Village of Kaya - quite extraordinary!
On both trips you can play 'spot the tortoise' - they are all over the place!
And, if that is not enough - we have two
accessible local beaches - Calis (reached by water taxi) and Olu Deniz which has
a beautiful clean lagoon suitable for small children to bathe safely.
If it's the high life you want, you can jump off
Babadag and paraglide to the beach or take a microlight flight over the lagoon
and out towards Butterfly Valley at sunset.
And ladies, the shopping is great! Leather,
Gold and Carpet Shops all offer excellent value for money and there are local
markets most days of the week - Tuesday in Fethiye is most impressive and
authentically local.
To clean up your act and prepare your skin for
those long days sunbathing ahead, The Hammam (Turkish Bath) in Fethiye is 400
years old and is a must for a real Turkish experience. For a modest extra
charge you can also have a lovely rose oil massage.
All gents need to visit a Turkish Barber - to
tell you any more will spoil the experience!
And if all this excitement is too much, do what
the Turks do and sit and watch the world go by on the marina in Fethiye.
As ever, on your behalf we have been
seeking out new experiences for you to try and have come up with a
wonderful overland jeep drive to Elmali (exclusive to Yakamoz guests)
through beautiful mountains that even our regular guests will never have
seen before - high up and wonderfully cool on a hot summer day.
Visit the beautiful mosque in Elmali, head over to Yesil Gol Lake then
come back via Kalkan to finish a long but exhilarating day.
As founder members of the Fethiye Garden
Club, we have also discovered a hidden gem out at Koycegiz - for those
of you who love your gardens the Palmiye Merkezi is a must!
Fancy some stargazing? An evening boat
trip combined with a simple but lovely meal on board, followed by
stargazing on the way back. You may even see 'Yakamoz' on the water....
Not only all that - but the food is
superb as well. There is much, much more to experience on your
Turkish holiday - just how will you fit it all in? |
