You can go on this backpack-free Lycian Way tour on your own at any time of year. We will arrange your luggage transportation, lodging, additional transfers, and be on call 24/7. Every day you will walk 15-20 kilometers.
This kind of tour will suit you if you want to cover more distance than is possible in group tours. We will give you detailed maps of the route, tell you where to swim along the way and even look for sea turtles :)
On this hike you can take a boat trip to the sunken island of Kekova, which was partially submerged by an earthquake in the second century AD. And if you wish, you can visit the museum with the Lycian tombs. These points can also be excluded from the program if you are only interested in active trekking during the whole vacation.
