Very nice, unfortunately without boat trip - The excursion was very nice and interesting. The tour guide looked after us very well and the bus driver took us safely to the locations. We also enjoyed lunch and it was plentiful. Unfortunately the Kekova boat tour has been cancelled. That was a real shame.

Nice excursion however many bus rides - We were really looking forward to the day trip. However, we were a bit surprised that we had to drive a good 90 minutes to the “first destination”. Since some had been on the bus since Antalya, a 15-minute break was taken at an overpriced rest area right after our boarding. Then we moved on. Very good throughout the day was the information of our guide Nihal. Our first stop was now not the port for the boat tour as expected, but a sales hall for marble ceramics. Again, we were thrown around with usury prices and our only highlight here were the small cats. The boat tour was a real highlight. This started at around 10:50 a.m. and went for a good 2 hours. Unfortunately, there was no information in advance that there will be a swim stop, which is why we did not have swimwear with us. The restaurant for the subsequent lunch was OK. However, the food was already cold and not the best in terms of taste. The St. Nicholas Church about 200m away wanted to see only 2 people from our group. So the rest had 40 minutes of free time. However, the area around the church does not really invite you to stroll. It's not very nice in the area. After another 10 minutes drive we reached Myra. There we also had almost 40 minutes to look at everything, which was also perfectly sufficient. All in all a nice excursion, which became really exhausting due to the bus rides.
