honeycomb of caves, scooped
out of the soft volcanic rock to
create churches and dwellings.
In Kekova, you will take a boat
to the ruins of a sunken Lycian
city. Your hotel in Antalya is
located in the Old City, and
there’ll be plenty of time to
explore the streets and alleys that
stretch out from Hadrian’s Gate.
Built in honour of the Roman
emperor, it’s the only remaining
entrance gate in the walls that
surround the city and harbour.
MEET LOCAL WOMEN
In suburban Istanbul, you’ll meet a
mother and daughter in their home,
where you’ll sample home-made
börek before the women teach you
how to make a cup of Turkish coffee.
They’ll also demonstrate the art of
fortune-telling from coffee grounds,
which has been passed down
between generations. In Ucagiz, a
quaint fishing and farming village,
you’ll meet Sabahat, who is as
comfortable steering a traditional
gulet (boat) as she is embroidering
one of her famous village scarves,
which you will learn how to make.
ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES
If you don’t mind an early start,
a hot air balloon ride over the
majestic Cappadocian landscape
is recommended. Advise your
local leader in advance if you
want to book it, as it needs to be
arranged with a certified operator.
The cost will vary depending
on the type of flight chosen.
An optional balloon
ride offers a fantastic
way to view the
landscape of Cappadocia
