About this experience
We love Fethiye’s blue waters, but we felt something was missing. Most visitors only see the coast, but the "Real Turkey" is hidden just a few miles up in the mountains. ️
We hand-picked this route to share the places that make us proud of our home:
Cadianda: Touch 2,500-year-old history without the crowds. Just you and the pine trees.
Üzümlü Village: Walk stone streets, meet weavers, and taste local wine where time stands still.
Ören Gorge: A local secret. Icy waters and "Kar Şerbeti" made with real mountain snow!
What makes us different?
No Big Buses: Max 18 guests. Like a road trip with friends.
Slow Pace: No rushing. Plenty of time to breathe and explore.
Local Insight: We share the hidden stories, not just the sights.
Join us for a story, not just a souvenir.
