Absolute best tour!

Amy_N, Jun 2026
Absolute best tour experience ever. The tour is packed full of once-in-a-lifetime experiences, including swimming, snorkeling, the underground city, and a castle hike. Lunch was fantastic, and Yassr provided lots of helpful information and did a great job keeping the group together and laughing. Absolute must if you’re in this part of Turkey (and worth the drive if you’re not.)

Response from Host, Oct 2026

Calling it your best tour experience is a wonderful compliment—thank you! We’re delighted you enjoyed your Kekova sea kayaking tour, from the swimming stops and Sunken City’s history to the castle hike and lunch. Your praise for Yaşar is especially appreciated. It’s lovely to hear his knowledge, care for the group and sense of humour made the day so enjoyable. We’d love to welcome you back for another paddle along this beautiful coastline!

Fantastic experience

Due to restrictions, it was not allowed to swim near the sunken city. The tour was more about kayaking than seeing the sunken city underwater. It was my first time doing kayaking so 9.5 km was quite intense but I succeeded.
