Demre Myra Kekova Tour From Antalya

  Last Updated: June 23, 2024

Demre Myra Kekova tour from Antalya is one of the most exotic journeys. It is a cruise through the cities of antiquity that delights history fans.

First, you’ll see the ancient cities of Lycia, a country that existed thousands of years ago in Turkey. Then, you will visit the famous flooded city of Kekova by boat and see its buildings right through the wonderfully clear water!

A professional English-speaking guide will also take you to St. Nicholas Church, the Amphitheatre in Demre, the tombs carved into the rocks of Myra and much more.

It is impossible to mention the ancient towns of Demre and Myra without mentioning the origins of Santa Claus. Good old St. Nicholas was a historical figure recorded as having lived in the area during the Hellenistic Period. This is the perfect excursion to walk in the footsteps of Father Christmas himself.

Sunken city boat trip

Of course, this could be two trips in one, as you will also have a boat ride to the Island of Kekova. From the boat, as you near the Island of Kekova, you will be able to see the remains of a once thriving harbour town that is not under the water near its coast. The turquoise waters of the Mediterranean appear to magnify the columns and even sarcophagi that lay at the bottom of the sea, and you will be amazed at how well preserved they are.

On this tour, you can get up close and personal with ancient Lycian rock tombs and see the faces and patterns carved into the old buildings and temples.

You can enter the amphitheatre and sit as if sitting down for an ancient Roman play. There is a Byzantine Church named after its patron Saint Nicholas that is said to be his final resting place.
