Let us take you to the ancient city of Arycanda, comparable in scope and beauty to the Lycian ruins of Ephesus. We will then take you for a traditional Turkish lunch, followed by a journey into Elmali, a non-tourist town where you can shop in the local markets and peruse the Ottoman style houses.

The journey starts with a visit to Arycanda, the ancient city which can compete with Ephesus with its remains left by Lycians and is well worth a visit (please note that it is fairly steep and rocky in places). After a traditional lunch we will have a short drive to Elmali, a non touristic town which has some examples of Ottoman style houses. We will have enough free time for shopping in the old town and tea will be served on the way back.

Initial Journey: Approx 2 hours

Things to take: Camera, sensible shoes, hat, money

Meals provided: Lunch
