Types of tour in Antalya

Most tours here begin the same way: a minibus collects you at your hotel in the morning. By lunchtime you are either on a boat anchored in a bay or inside a Roman theatre. The real differences are the kind of day you choose and the things the price does not cover.

Rates shift with the season, your hotel and the inclusions, so ask us for the current price.

The three boat trips are quite different. Suluada and Porto Ceneviz focus on swim stops and calm water. The Kemer Mega Star is the one with music and a foam party. With young children, or if you want a relaxed day, pick one of the first two.

What each price includes

Inclusions vary more than anything else between Antalya tours, so check this list before comparing.

• Perge, Aspendos and Side comes with a guide and lunch. Entrance fees to the sites are not included and are paid on the day.
• Demre, Myra and Kekova covers tickets for Myra and St Nicholas Church, plus the boat ride above the sunken city.
• Pamukkale (shared) covers lunch and the Hierapolis ticket. A swim in Cleopatra's Antique Pool is charged separately.
• The boat trips all serve lunch on board. On each of the three you pay for drinks, and snorkel gear is not provided on the Suluada trip.
• The private tours cover museum tickets but not meals: Pamukkale from $180, Sagalassos from $140, and Myra and Kekova from $140.

Which tours go to which sights

• Düden Waterfalls and Kaleiçi Old Town: on the Old City tour for shared groups, or on the private tour of the old town, which lasts 7 hours and starts at $90.
• Side, Perge and the Aspendos Theatre: visited together in a single day, finishing at the Manavgat waterfall.
• Myra and St Nicholas Church: on the Demre and Kekova day in a shared group, or on the private Demre and Kekova tour with a guide and van just for you.

For a quieter day, consider Sagalassos, high in the mountains to the north of Antalya. The private tour there fits in the Burdur Archaeological Museum as well, all in one day.

How pickup works

Shared tours collect guests from hotels in certain parts of Antalya. Your pickup time is based on your hotel's location and is confirmed once you have booked. If your hotel lies far out along the coast, to the east or the west, check with us that your hotel is included before paying.

Private tours pick you up at your hotel in Antalya. The private yacht for 2 hours, from $1,499, can collect you at your hotel or at the cruise port. No other tour on this page offers pickup from the cruise port.

There is one exception. On the paragliding day trip to Ölüdeniz, from $399, the hotel transfer is only included if you choose it. You take off from Babadağ, fly for roughly 20 to 40 minutes and land on the beach at Ölüdeniz. Photos and video cost extra.

Long days: plan for the driving time

From Antalya, both Pamukkale and Ölüdeniz involve many hours in the vehicle. On the way, the shared Pamukkale tour makes a stop at an onyx workshop. The private Pamukkale tour takes 12 hours from door to door with a guide and van of your own, so the pace at the site is up to you. With just one free day, a tour of the coast or of ancient sites close to Antalya means more time exploring and less time sitting. If you still choose Pamukkale, first read which time of day works best at Pamukkale.

Going beyond Antalya

Some travellers make Antalya the base for a longer trip. We have pages on an Istanbul day trip starting in Antalya and a tour to Cappadocia from Antalya, by air or by road. Still deciding where to stay on the coast? Read Antalya, Bodrum or Dalaman: Istanbul plus a beach stay from the UK. To quickly compare what you could do tomorrow, see day tours from your Antalya hotel. Trips that combine Antalya with other cities are listed in our multi-city packages.
