Loved the Sunken city tour - The boat tour was amazing, seeing the Sunken city was absolutely worth it. We also visited the ancient Myra Rock tombs and Saint Nicholas church

Interesting and beautiful - Tried to book this tour through Tripadvisor with various providers with no success. Contacted u Can travel directly and they were most helpful via WhatsApp. Was picked up by friendly bus driver Mehmut at hotel at 6:39 and drove to old Town to pick up the rest of the tour participants. We met Yakub- our very friendly, knowledgeable and humorous guide. He spoke English, Russian, Turkish and German. Drive to Demre (with a stop on the way) where we visited the tombs, then St Nicholas church and then the sunken city of Kekova (boat). Yakub have interesting talks about each site and then about 30-40 minutes free time for pics and a swimming break near Kekova. Tour was interesting, bus comfortable (but a long drive-2 hours either way) and the boat ride very beautiful. Take a swimsuit and towel. Would recommend but it’s a long day.

Small group tour - not worth the cost. Go private or large tour. - This was a smaller group but we still joined up with the larger tours. So the smaller group only meant we didn’t get on large buses. The tour took all day. It would have been much better as a private tour - less waisted waiting around and more informative. Our guide wasn’t eager to share information. He also charged us extra for the St Nicolas church to have his guided tour instead of the audio tour. His guided tour of this location was excellent. I wish we had had the same care of informations shared at the other two stops. We spent a bit of time waiting for pick up and drop off. And the lunch was really really not good. The sights were beautiful and worth the trip, just don’t do the group tour. And request a different location for lunch.

Long and Exhausting - If you have a lot of time to spare in Antalya, only then I would recommend this trip. Although the 5am wakeup call is definitely not worth it. Boat ride was nice, although couldn't see any of the underwater wrecks. Myra was ok. Then again probably not worth the 6-7 hour drive time.
