Antalya

Antalya

Backed by the snow-capped Taurus Mountains and fringed by the bluest of seas, Antalya is the heart of the Turkish Riviera. Wander the cobbled lanes of Kaleiçi, the old town, where Ottoman mansions, a Roman harbour and the elegant Hadrian’s Gate tell two thousand years of history, then cool off beneath the cascading Düden Waterfalls that tumble straight into the Mediterranean.

Beyond the city, the coast unfolds into long beaches and spectacular ancient sites such as the perfectly preserved theatre of Aspendos. With its blend of culture, sun and sea, Antalya is the ideal place to relax at the end of a Turkey tour.
