Itinerary
Day 1 – Kaleici, Hadrian's Gate, Yacht Harbour & Duden Waterfalls
The Antalya city tour starts when your guide meets you in the hotel lobby.
You begin in Kaleici, the old heart of Antalya, walking through narrow, characterful streets lined with well-kept Ottoman houses and small local shops.
Hadrian's Gate comes next. This grand Roman triumphal arch was built to mark the visit of Emperor Hadrian to the city.
On foot you continue to the Clock Tower and the busy Textile Bazaar, a good place to soak up local life and do some shopping.
From there you walk down to the Yacht Harbour, which has fine views over the Mediterranean and plenty of chances for photos.
Leaving the Old Town behind, you take the van out to Duden Waterfalls, among the prettiest natural sights in Antalya, where the water tumbles down through green vegetation.
The tour finishes with a drive back to your Antalya hotel.
