Fethiye Saklikent Gorge and Blue Lagoon Tour From Marmaris

Was great! Very nice trip though long bus trip but definitely worth it!

We had a great day from start to finish, we started the day with breakfast, fresh turkish bagel included. Drinks were not included but there was the option to buy hot or cold drinks. Then we took a 2 hour drive down to The blue Lagoon in OluDeniz. We spent 2 hours there, before back on the bus for another hour or so to our next stop for Lunch which was also included. The options were fresh fish or grilled chicken, along with chips, rice & salad. Then it was on to the Saklikent Gorge, which a 3-4min walk down the road. Take swim shoes if you plan on going into the stream, as we witnessed people losing flip-flops because of the strong current in the stream. Then its a 3hr long (but worth it) drive back to Marmaris area. We had a great day and Oscar was very friendly and approachable. Both the Blue Lagoon & Saklikent Gorge are stunning places and well worth a visit 👍

Great day trip from Marmaris! Be prepared for lots of travelling (3 hours each way), but frequent bathroom stops. The complementary breakfast and lunch was also nice. 2 hours free time at Blue Lagoon, with the option to do the parasailing for $140 (which we did and would absolutely recommend!). 1 hour to Saklikent Gorge, and another hour of free time there. Admission fee is not included, and was 250 lira when we went. You can only actually traverse the first 1km of the 12km long gorge, but it's still beautiful in there! Remember water shoes if you want to go a little deeper in, but be prepared for fast flowing water and uneven terrain. Our host, Oscar, was brilliant from start to finish. Incredibly friendly and super knowledgeable about the locations we visited, and also about the history of the Turkish people. He made sure everyone was looked after throughout the trip, even giving everyone his contact number before we first got off the bus. A great trip that we both enjoyed.

Amazing places to visit 🌞👌👏 Oscar is truly the best guide we could have asked for! Very friendly, professional and engaging form beginning to end.

Amazing day with Al. Really good and informative, friendly and polite . Best day of holiday so far really helpful during lunch as my daughter is coeliac and made sure she had the right food. Highly recommend

When we booked on website it was saying average 2 hrs getting there but it took 3.5 hrs to get to Blue Lagoon. Beautiful area and beaches only we had to little time to enjoy this activity. Guide gave us 1hrs 40 min of which took 40 min walking there and back altogether. Not enough time at the beach. Then we drove another 1.5 hrs to get to Gorge and less than an hour to go and explore canyon what definitely not enough. Felt like activities were rushed . Guide whose name was Nur engaged very little. I understand she is doing this daily but we seeing everything first time and simple facts of history would be really helpful. Our guide most of the time spent browsing her mobile phone or sleeping. Not sure why company employed her. What she did driver could do easily for extra play and save company money in total. Anyway, the most difficult part to sit for 3.5 hrs + 1.5 hrs and + 3.5 hrs in minibus. We were lucky it wasn’t full otherwise it will be even worse

We were picked up at the hotel and started our journey, breakfast was provided and lunch was included which were both lovely. Thank you to Nur our tour guide she was amazing and very informative.

Lovely day spent exploring. Our guide Nur was amazing and very helpful when looking for recommendations when we had some free time. Stopped off for a lovely lunch in a beautiful spot in before a walk up the gorge. Lovely day, not stressful and had a wonderful relaxing trip

We saw everything included in the itinerary. Very important that we were picked up right on time, and overall, the timing of the tour was strictly followed. We even took a dip in the lagoon, and despite it being May 1st 😁, the water was pleasant. The colors in the bay are indescribably beautiful. We visited Saklikent Canyon, which seemed smaller than Sapadere to me, but equally stunning. We were very lucky with the weather—it was warm yet fresh and sunny. There’s a special charm to the off-season; we absolutely love it that way 🥰. Our guide, Alper (or Al for short), handled everything instantly. He was very friendly and resolved a conflict caused by the tour organizers (some people were told there would be a Russian-speaking guide, even though we were warned in advance that everything would be in English—thanks to the Excursionmania agency for that 🙏). As a suggestion for the future: I would have loved to hear more local legends, traditions, and maybe even some jokes 😁. Regarding the transport, my only suggestion would be to fix the air conditioning, as it was either a bit stuffy or too cold with a strong draft. Lunch boxes are provided for breakfast, but if you’re used to having eggs in the morning, I'd recommend bringing your own. Everything else was excellent. Thank you for making this trip happen, even though it's the very beginning of the season!

Though the sights on the journey were beautiful, it was an incredibly long drive both ways with little guiding from the guide, most of the time he told us to wake him if we needed anything. The blue lagoon is beautiful, absolutely worth seeing and though you get 2 hours, they flew by. The lunch was delicious, beautiful spot by the gorge though you felt rushed to eat as only had 30-40 minutes. The gorge wasn’t fully open due to the weather which is understandable, we still got to go along a bit of it which was amazing to see, but what was disappointing was to be told we had to pay our own entry even though our booking clearly stated entry included. The guide told us the price had gone from 65 to 500 lire for tourists! We refused to give him money and said we’d sort ourselves. When we got there, he said it had been dropped to 250 lire. He then went to speak to the desk and announced it was 85 lire that day… no signs anywhere of entry price… all seemed incredibly suspicious!!
