Name: Antalya Fethiye & Ölüdeniz Day Trip with Paragliding
Price: 34500 AED

Key Experiences:

Scenic Journey to Fethiye:
The tour starts early in the morning with comfortable, air-conditioned hotel pickup from Antalya.
The journey westward to Fethiye, through pine-clad hills and the scenic Turkish Riviera, takes approximately 2.5 to 4 hours (around 144-190 km) each way. While it's a long day, the comfortable transport and changing landscapes make the ride part of the experience.
Ölüdeniz Blue Lagoon:
The first major stop is the legendary Blue Lagoon in Ölüdeniz, a stunning natural jewel with turquoise waters framed by verdant mountains.
You'll have approximately two hours of free time to:
Swim in the sheltered bay's crystal-clear waters.
Sunbathe on the pebble beach.
Simply relax and soak in the breathtaking views.
Optional Tandem Paragliding (Extra Cost):
For thrill-seekers, an optional tandem paragliding experience is available from Babadağ Mountain.
This allows you to glide high above, soaking in panoramic coastal views of Ölüdeniz and the surrounding area, offering an unparalleled perspective.
Important: Participants must weigh between 20 kg (44 lbs) and 110 kg (243 lbs) to safely partake in this activity and meet safety regulations. Prior experience or a license is not required for tandem paragliding, as you'll be with an expert pilot.
Lunch in Fethiye Town:
Next, the tour heads to the vibrant Fethiye town, a charming blend of traditional markets and seaside cafés.
You'll be treated to a delicious authentic local lunch at a local restaurant, featuring freshly prepared regional dishes in a pleasant natural environment. Drinks are not included.
Saklikent Gorge Exploration:
The final stop is the spectacular Saklikent Gorge, one of Turkey’s longest and deepest canyons (18 km long and up to 300m deep).
Visitors can walk along suspended wooden platforms above cool, rushing waters, peering up at towering limestone cliffs.
You'll have the chance to wade or dip into the icy cold stream below the platforms. Note that accessing deeper parts of the gorge often involves crossing cold, shallow (sometimes knee-high) water and clambering over rocks.
This blend of geology and tranquility is both exhilarating and restorative.
