Merhaba everyone!
We're off to Hisaronu in May for our seventh trip there. Despite having tried lots of other places (we went to Goa in Feb for example) we keep getting drawn back. We've hired the same villa as last year as it's really well located, and lovely inside.
So, we'll be there for two weeks and with my husband and I will be my mum and aunt - both of whom have been to Hisaronu several times before, and two friends. These friends have been to Turkey - Bodrum or Marmaris I think, I can't quite remember - and hated it. So I am hoping to convince them that not all of Turkey is the same.
Seven weeks to go! Woohoo!
Anyway, there is a point to this post. I would like to do a few day trips this time. In the past we have done Pammukale, several boat trips and Ephesus. We have also had lots of Turkish baths, which I plan to do again. We've also been to Kaya in the past and we will definitely take them there as I know that will interest them. We may also go to Fethiye (although actually I prefer the Monday market in Hisaronu).
Mum and aunt plan to go to Kalkan for one night.
I am considering doing a jeep safari or quad safari. Any thougths on those? Any other trips you would recommend?
Any other trips you would recommend
There's a nice local one day excursion which you can buy at many of the tour offices in town, going to Tlos - the ancient city - and to the Salikent Gorge. One of the nice bits about this day out is a lunch at Yakapark Trout farm, where there's a channel cut into the stone bar, through which swim trout.
So you can learn to tickle a trout as you drink an excellent dark Turkish beer, before sampling a wonderful trout lunch.
Only £13 including lunch but not drinks.
Sounds great! Will check that one out.
Kas is a little bit further on than Kalkan and very picturesque with beautiful old streets. From there you can take a boat trip to the sunken city and that is a spectacular trip. Alternatively you could take a boat trip to the Greek island of Meis.
check out my website under things to do and also places to go i also have a link for a reputable tour company in the village on the front page
i will be there most of may i will have my h/t blue wristband on so say hello if you see me
A separate trip to Saklikent Gorge is well worth it so you can spend some quality time there.
The sunset cruise is a lovely way to spend an evening. The boat sails from Fethiye and when it anchors, those who want to can have an evening swim. There's a shower and changing rooms on board. The meal sunset and moonlit (if you're lucky) disco is an enchanting experience.
The quad bike safari is worth doing as well. It takes a different and very scenic route through Kaya and on to the beach near St Nicholas Island, where you stop for a couple of hours.
Have a look at http://www.caroletayfun.com - good prices with a discount if you book on-line. They are very reputable and will pick you up and take you back to your accommodation. Enjoy!
Jeep safari is a right laugh, I've done it twice now through Candianda, mainly cos they also look after the villa, as has been said though, you WILL get wet, my mate had her mobile soaked and it never recovered, also, put money in a plastic bag as it takes ages to dry out. I'm off back in October for my 10th visit, going with Hisaronu virgins this time so it will be fun showing them round!
Candianda is also managing our villa so I'll speak to them about it. Thanks for all the tips folks
there is a direct link on my website to cadiandia tours ps they also look after our complex
