Best Experience for a day trip from Antalya - This is a must-do tour from Antalya. We booked the boat tour for half a day and it was best decision ever. The boat is nice for a private tour of 6-8 persons. We were a group of 5 and we loved it. The tour takes a standard route stopping at popular places. We started with the turtle watching in the emerald waters of the bay. Then next up we saw the Sunken City of Kekova , followed by a stop to visit the Simena Castle. The views from the castle are brilliant and we headed back to the boat with some home made ice cream. Next he took us to a bay where the waters were warm and we could jump in and swim about a bit... Finished up with a round of hot coffee and back to the town. I highly recommend booking this tour with Orhan.

Wonderful experience! - Beautiful way to explore the coastline with adequate time for swimming stops in picturesque bays. Swimming with the sea turtles is an experience my children won't forget! Our captain and his helper were polite and easy going, allowing flexibility in how long we spent at each stop based on our wishes. It was a wonderful outing for our family of four.

Amazing personalized experience - We loved our trip with Eda and Faith! My parents and I were visiting Kas and wanted to explore the coastal area around and this was the perfect way to do it. Eda and Faith were so welcoming and warm and provided us with a personalized experience based on what we wanted to see and where we wanted to go. They went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our experience, taking us around the Sunken City ruins, seeing Simena and taking us to their favorite bays (super clear water) to swim in. We even expressed wanting to go to certain types of bays and Faith took the small boat to explore the area around and find exactly what we were looking for. The boat was very comfortable and spacious with lots of opportunities to sit in the shade or get some sun. Would highly recommend this trip to anyone thinking about taking a tour.
