Overview

Our Demre, Myra, and Kekova tour is the ultimate 3-in-1 Mediterranean journey, combining ancient history, sacred legends, and a sunken island adventure all in a single day.

What makes this excursion unique is the breathtaking boat cruise over the Sunken City of Kekova. Through a glass-bottom boat, you will look directly down into the crystal-clear turquoise waters to witness submerged Roman ruins, ancient staircases, and old shipyards untouched by time.

The journey continues on land, where you will explore the majestic Lycian rock-cut tombs of Myra, carved vertically into cliff faces like a city for the dead, right next to a grand Roman theatre. Finally, you will walk the halls of the St. Nicholas Church in Demre—the authentic birthplace of the real Santa Claus.

With Travellers Choose, you skip the long ticket lines, enjoy premium air-conditioned transfers, and swim in the hidden, pristine bays of the Mediterranean. It is a flawless mix of culture and paradise.
