Beyond The 12 Islands Sailing
The Best Tours in Dalyan
My title says it all. I have been coming to Dalyan for many years now and have experienced several tour companies, discovered Volkan a few years ago and now I wouldn’t book with anyone else! The groups are smaller and therefore more intimate, he takes you to some of the more ‘out of the way’ places as well as the usual sights, and his proud knowledge of the area and its history makes all the trips so interesting.
If you fancy the “12 Island ” boat trip – don’t even think of going with anyone else (I have, in the past, but none are as good as Volkan)
This year I also went to Kalkan and Kas (I forget the name of the trip) – a whole day, unforgettable sights, plenty of swim stops, amazing food and finishing with dinner and dancing! Thank you Volkan!
I cannot recommend too highly – absolutely superb ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Mediterranean Highlights
Embarking on the Mediterranean Journey was a highlight of my trip to Dalyan! From the delightful seaside breakfast to the leisurely exploration of Kaş, every moment was filled with beauty and charm. The drive along the Turquoise Coast was stunning, and the opportunity to relax on the secluded pebble beach was a true luxury. The home-cooked meal provided a perfect ending to the day, offering a taste of Turkish hospitality. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience along the Turquoise Coast!

Another year and yet more amazing adventures and memories made with Volkan. He really is the best there is – every trip is fun filled, knowledge packed, and feast for the eyes – we did several trips this year and each was spectacular!! If you want to see the best of Turkey around Dalyan, Volkan should be your guide!! Luxurious transport, fantastic traditional food, fantastic company, and memories made – a treat for all the senses!!
Twilight Panoramas & Eastern Aromas
Trips with a difference!
Sep 2024 • Couples
Two trips this year, as amazing and different as ever.
Twilight Panoramas & Eastern Aromas was a fabulous evening trip, stunning views and delicious food. Would do again just to experience the ‘Maklube’ lamb/rice dish which was a truly unique taste.
Aegean Treasures was a day trip done in a reverse order to take in the stunning sunset over the sea. Akyaka and the tranquil Azmak river was a delight, followed by a superb boat lunch and then a visit to the interesting and beautiful Sedir Island. Several swim stops included and then the magical experience of witnessing the sun set over the sea.
Would recommend both trips. Only wish we could have done more – next year I hope
Thank you Volcan and team
Green Valley Trek
This tour exceeded all my expectations! Yesil Vadi is truly a hidden gem, and I feel lucky to have experienced it. The valley experience was amazing, with so much to see and do. Lunch was delicious, and it was a great opportunity to try authentic Turkish cuisine. The visit to the rock tomb was a fascinating glimpse into history. Overall, a day filled with adventure, beauty, and wonderful memories!
Green Valley Trek
We found the trip on the whole , ejoyable , but we weren’t aware of how difficult it would be to walk across the river several times . We are fairly fit 50’s ladies but still found walking across deep parts where the current was strong . Good sturdy shoes are advisable . The lunch was VERY poor . No fish or chicken or meatballs available , just a chicken casserole which consisted of burnt fatty chicken and 3 bits of vegetables . We waited an hr and a half for the food as well .
The group were all in good spirits and our guide was very helpful especially helping us across the river
Dalyan Jeep Safari
I had an incredible time on the Dalyan Jeep Safari! The tour was well-organized, and our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The Amber Forest was enchanting, and the swim breaks at Yuvarlakcay River were so refreshing. Lunch was delicious, and I appreciated the effort to accommodate dietary preferences. Asi Bay was serene, and the zip line added an extra thrill to the experience. The views from Radar Mountain were breathtaking, and I got some amazing photos. The water fights were a blast, and it was such a fun way to cool off. Overall, it was a fantastic day filled with adventure and beautiful scenery. Highly recommend!
Moonlight Serenity
The Moonlight Serenity Signature Evening Boat Trip was an absolute delight! From the serene journey through Koycegiz Lake to the tranquil stops along the way, every moment was filled with beauty and relaxation.

Marveling at the night sky under the moonlight was a breathtaking experience, and I left with cherished memories.

The “In The Footsteps of Cleopatra: Akyaka, Sedir Island, Cleopatra Beach, and Çamlıköy Adventure” was an absolute dream come true! From the moment we were picked up, the journey was filled with excitement and anticipation. Sedir Island and Cleopatra Beach were breathtaking, with the ancient city of Kedrai and the legendary sands of Cleopatra Beach truly captivating. The lunch in Çamlı Village was a culinary delight, offering a taste of authentic local flavors. Exploring the village and discovering unique souvenirs was a lovely way to spend the afternoon. Akyaka was a picturesque town, and the private boat ride along the Azmak River was a highlight of the tour. I cannot recommend this adventure enough for anyone looking to explore the enchanting destinations of Dalyan!
Twilight Panoramas & Eastern Aromas
The Twilight Panoramas & Eastern Aromas tour was an evening to remember! The journey to Candir Village offered breathtaking views of Iztuzu Beach and the Dalyan Delta, providing a unique perspective of this beautiful landscape. Candir Resort Restaurant was a hidden gem, and the Eastern Turkish delicacies served were absolutely delicious. Each dish was expertly prepared, highlighting the flavors and traditions of Adıyaman. As we dined against the backdrop of the sunset, the ambiance was truly magical. This tour exceeded all expectations and provided a perfect blend of stunning vistas and culinary delights. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Dalyan!

This is an utterly magical day out, Volkan has obviously well researched this trip and nothing was too much trouble, despite being registered partially blind he ensured that I was able to safely enjoy and participate in the whole experience. Thank you

My friends and I had an amazing time on the Dalyan Jeep Safari! The Amber Forest was stunning, and learning about the Liquid Amber trees was fascinating. The swim breaks at Yuvarlakcay River were the perfect way to cool off, and the lunch provided was delicious. Asi Bay was incredibly peaceful, and we all had a blast on the zip line across the bay.

Overall, it was an action-packed day filled with adventure and excitement. Can’t recommend it enough!
