      Saklikent Gorge, Tlos & Gizlikent Waterfall Tour

      Nature, ancient history, and a riverside lunch — all in one carefully crafted day.

      This Saklikent Gorge tour brings together three of the region's most compelling natural and historical landmarks in a single, well-paced itinerary designed for small groups. With a cap of just 18 guests, the experience feels personal rather than rushed, and every stop has been chosen to balance activity with genuine relaxation.

      The tour moves from the cool, narrow passages of one of the world's deepest canyons to a riverside lunch beside a cascading waterfall, and finally to the atmospheric ruins of an ancient Lycian city. Each location offers something distinct, yet the day flows naturally from one to the next without the fatigue that often comes with longer group excursions.

      Hotel pickup and drop-off in modern, air-conditioned vehicles removes the logistical stress from the equation entirely. Families, solo travellers, and history enthusiasts alike tend to find this itinerary well-suited to their pace, particularly because free time is built into every stop.

      Tour Highlights

      Walk through the icy, rushing waters of Saklikent Canyon, one of the deepest gorges in the world, along elevated wooden walkways.

      Enjoy a full open-buffet lunch beside Gizlikent Waterfall, with fresh trout or chicken served alongside salads and local mezes.

      Explore the ancient Lycian city of Tlos with a professional guide, uncovering centuries of history set against panoramic mountain views.

      Travel in a small group of no more than 18 guests for a more relaxed, attentive, and crowd-free experience throughout the day.

      Convenient hotel pickup and drop-off is included, with travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle from start to finish.

      Optional activities such as rafting and zip-lining are available at Saklikent and Gizlikent for guests who want added adventure.
