After you see the sights of Antalya, I suggest you get a tour guide and go on a sightseeing tour to one of my suggestions below. You can skip ahead to book one here if you already know what you want to see.

1. Antalya To Kekova Island Excersion

When staying in Antalya , make sure you find the time to head to Kekova Island, one of the best Turkish islands near Kalekoy village. Here, you’ll find underwater ruins that date back to Lycian times, and you can visit them directly by boat tour or kayak. The ruins were thrown into the sea by a massive earthquake believed to have occurred during the 2nd century. The ruins are now known as the “Sunken City.”

It’s impressive to see first-hand, but the whole island is nothing short of beautiful in its own right. This part of Turkey is packed with ancient ruins, and even a quick visit to Kalekoy will allow you to see the ancient ruins of Simena and a massive fortress on the hilltop.

You can find day trips that tour to Kekova easily from most beach resorts in the Antalya region, with Kas being the closest.

2. Excursion From Antalya To Düden Waterfalls

Every year, millions of visitors head to the Antalya region , but few know about the beauty of the waterfalls that are just a stone’s throw from Antalya International Airport! These coastal waterfalls are arguably among the most beautiful places in Turkey to visit.

The waterfalls are formed from the cascades of water spilling down Mount Taurus before heading to the sea. As the light fades and the sun sets, the water begins to glisten and forms beautiful waterfalls that you must catch on film.

Duden Waterfalls are situated in a protected park, so there’s plenty of greenery to chill out in, and it’s never too crowded, apart from during important national days in Türkiye when locals head out with their family members to spend some time together in the sun.

You can reach the waterfalls on your own steam by hiring a car ; they’re only around 15 minutes from the airport, or you can book a tour, which is probably the easiest way. Tours take you to the foot of the waterfalls, or you can go on a full-day boat trip and see them cascading into the sea for yourself.

3. Day Trip From Antalya To The Land Of Legends Theme Park

Enjoy a day of family-friendly fun by exploring the excitement of the Land of Aqua and Waterfront Kingdom, two distinct zones. This is our recommendation for the kids, but adults can enjoy it, too. No judgment. 

You can have all-day access to high-speed rides, four roller coasters, water slides, animal shows, and a 5-dimension cinema. Try the Hyper Coaster, which takes you from 200 feet (61 meters) to a 142 feet (43,5 meters) diameter loop at speeds of 72 miles per hour (115 kilometers per hour), or the Deep Dive slide, which sends you almost vertically down. Later, unwind by gliding down the Lazy Floats River’s gentle currents or having a blast with the family at the Secret Lagoon’s Spray Action multi-level playground.

Find local tour options here.

4. antalya day trip to alanya.

The popular seaside resort, Alanya, is nestled in front of the Taurus mountains. With beautiful beaches, vibrant nightlife, and rich culture, there is so much to see and do in this beautiful destination. Here are some ideas of what to do in Alanya and on the way there:

Antalya Paragliding Experience

Have you always wanted to know how it feels to be flying? Cleopatra Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in Antalya , and what better way to see it than from the air? Add some extra excitement to your vacations and create memories that will last forever by joining this thrilling activity.

Flights are offered every day, but only in the morning. Local agencies are offering paragliding experiences starting from 60 euros. The agency will transfer you towards Alanya , at the paragliding flight station on Cleopatra’s Hill.

The road trip takes approximately 2 hours. When you arrive at the station, at an altitude of 700 meters, you will meet a team of professional instructors. Once ready, the instructor will attach you to his body, and you will take off from the edge of a cliff. From there, you will experience a fantastic sense of freedom.

The paragliding flight is approximately 20 – 30 minutes long and ends at the beautiful Cleopatra Beach.

Cleopatra Beach

Cleopatra Beach, a long beach named after the Queen of the Nile, boasts golden sand and an incredible ocean. Often crowded, due to its popularity, you can pay to rent sun loungers and enjoy food from one of the many restaurants and cafes lining the beach.

Ancient City Of Perge & Aspendos

Just outside Antalya, you will find the spectacular ruins of Perge and the amazingly well-preserved Aspendos Amphitheater.

Alanya was once home to many Lycian settlements. This ancient civilization left its marks on every corner of the area through the ruins of ancient cities, such as Perge. Founded in the 13th century BCE, the settlement kept evolving and prospering until the 11th century CE. Around the time Seljuk Turks invaded the area, the city became abandoned. Today, it offers an insightful glimpse into the lives of early Anatolians.

Ancient Damlatas Cave

Close to the beautiful beaches of Cleopatra and Damlatas is the marvelous Dalamatas Cave. With incredible stalactites and interesting geology, this is a great place to explore.

Shop At The City’s Atmospheric Bazaars

Each district in the city has its own bazaar, full of vendors selling fresh local delicacies, sweets, clothes, and souvenirs . The most famous market in Alanya is the Cuma Pazari, which takes place each Friday from early morning to 7 pm.

5. antalya to the taurus mountains excursion.

The Taurus Mountains, which run along the coastline, are a popular destination for hiking and mountain biking. These are some of the best ways to explore this area of the country:

The tour takes you to discover the impressive beauty of the Taurus Mountains. Are you ready? Nature is waiting for you.

The road trip from Antalya toward the Canyon takes approximately 2 hours. During the road trip , you will visit a 2000-year-old Roman period bridge and Saint Paul’s Road, which is highly important to the Christian population. Your visit to the infamous Eagle Canyon is what truly sets this tour apart. Once you arrive, you will have 45 minutes to explore the area’s majestic and wild beauty. Eagle Canyon has massive cliffs, some of which are over 400 meters high. Every visitor is enticed and impressed by the tranquil setting and lush vegetation.

Canyon Rafting Tour

Take the opportunity to participate in an extreme rafting experience. You will be given the necessary equipment, and a professional instructor will walk you through the rafting process.

Selge Ancient City

You don’t need experience or a driving license to drive a buggy, but the driver must be 16 years or older. Although the buggies are light, they are relatively fast. They are automatic and easy to drive. You can rent one for around 40 euros.

6. Antalya Tours To Fethiye

About 2 hours from Antalya is the stunning city of Fethiye. Buses run several times per day between the cities.

With ancient landmarks, stunning nature reserves, golden beaches, and a turquoise sea, this picturesque Mediterranean town in Turkey’s southwest offers a superb holiday experience. Fethiye provides a fantastic Mediterranean adventure with its secluded coves and scenic nature. 

Here are our favorite ways to explore Fethiye:

Ölüdeniz Beach

Ölüdeniz is one of the most famous beaches of Fethiye. The extraordinary landscape of the beach combines green hills covered in forests, golden sands, and turquoise waters. If you follow the Lycian path that starts from Ölüdeniz, you might end up getting to some peaceful coves and beaches where you can spend your time without interruptions.

• Things To Do In Oludeniz

Butterfly Valley

Only accessible by water, Butterfly Valley hosts over a hundred species of butterflies. Although it is challenging to spot butterflies in the summer since they aren’t often around, Butterfly Valley still promises a memorable experience with its serenity and peacefulness.

Visit Kayaköy Ruins

Fethiye has a long and rich history; thus, ancient ruins, monuments, and historic structures are in every corner of this historic territory. Few, however, are as intriguing as Kayaköy Ruins. An abandoned church and old houses that once belonged to local Greeks contribute to the mysterious ambiance. Visiting this ancient settlement may help you better understand the local history.

The Rock Tombs of Tlos are an extraordinary complex of ancient ruins that include an acropolis, an Ottoman fortress and stable, a necropolis, a stadium, a massive theatre, a Christian-era Basilica and a temple, many school complexes, and an agora.

7. Hierapolis & Pamukkale From Antalya

Pamukkale is not a “real” village; it is more like a base for visiting the site with many hotels, restaurants, and small shops. The drive from Antalya to Pamukkale takes around 3 hours. You can go there by car, public transport (a one-way ticket is usually about 20 euros) or with travel agencies which  will organize a private minibus or luxury van.

Here are our suggestions for what to see and do on a Pamukkale tour from Antalya:

Pamukkale Hot Air Balloon Tour 

These hot air balloon tours are organized regularly all year long, but only in good weather conditions. You will watch how the crew prepares the balloons and may take as many pictures as you like.

I suggest you start the balloon ride early in the morning, as the most beautiful views will be at sunrise – so make your trip to Pamukkale in the wee hours before the sun comes up. 

The Hot Air Balloon flight will take around 1 hour, and you will witness the beautiful sceneries of Pamukkale and the remains of the ancient city of  Hierapolis . Prices for the ride start from 99 euros.

Discover The Ancient City Of Hierapolis

This impressive site is among the UNESCO sites of cultural heritage . This is because, during antiquity, the city used to be a spiritual and healing center because of the nearby hot springs (the area is famous for a carbonate mineral left by the flowing of thermal spring water. You can observe the Roman baths, the ancient theatre, and the necropolis during your time there.

• Guide To The Ancient City Of Hierapolis

Cotton Castle

9. Marmaris & Icmeler Tour

Located on the gorgeous Turquoise Coast, Marmaris is lapped by the beautiful blue waters of the Aegean . There is a lot to see and do around this part of the country , although when the heat is on (and trust me, it’s hot during the summer), you’ll probably want to chill out around the pool or lay on the beach!

Marmaris and Icmeler run into one another and are less than 10 minutes apart. For that reason, Icmeler is often called Marmaris because it’s much smaller. However, it’s worth pointing out that they are two different resorts if we are being technical! During your stay, zig-zag between the two because Icmeler is so beautiful and worth more than one visit .

Marmaris is home to myriads of picturesque beaches , crystal-clear waters, and spectacular sunsets. The long stretch of sandy beach runs along the town’s promenade and is perfect for sunbathing and swimming.

Another popular feature of Marmaris is its active nightlife, with a range of pubs, nightclubs, and restaurants offering something for everyone. You can enjoy traditional Turkish music at one of the town’s many taverns or sample local dishes at a seafood restaurant.

10. Antalya To Konya Day Tour

More off the beaten path, Konya is about 4 hours from Antalya. 

Konya is a romantic place , the kind that would entice poets and dreamers alike. It’s no surprise that Mevlana Rumi, the famous Sufi poet and whirling dervish, wrote his famous, heartfelt verses here in the 13th century. The Mevlana Museum, which is decorated with beautiful roses and houses the tomb of the renowned poet, should undoubtedly be your first stop.

Its Semahane houses a museum of religious artifacts from the period. For an evening walk and a cup of Turkish tea , visit the Alaeddin Tepe Park.

The Tile Museum and the Museum of Wooden and Stone Carving represent the other fine arts in Konya, ensuring that all art lovers have a great time! 

This is also a great place to watch a whirling dervish performance, which takes place weekly in the main square each Saturday.

11. Cappadocia Tour From Antalya

If you are willing to take the overnight bus or jump on an hour-long domestic flight (about USD 40 each way), you can easily travel to Cappadocia from Antalya.

Cappadocia is on many bucket lists, and it’s not hard to see why. Here’s what we recommend:

Hot Air Balloon Ride

Türkiye is packed with memorable experiences, but without a doubt, one that features on many Turkey bucket lists is going on a Cappadocia hot air balloon ride and enjoying the fantastic, fairytale-like landscape from the sky.

It’s a sight featured in many travel magazines and websites, so millions of people head to this central Turkish area every year. The Goreme National Park is packed with colossal rock formations that look like fairy chimneys, and gazing over the park is not only Insta-worthy but a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Rose Valley

One of the most iconic destinations in Turkey, the Rose Valley in the Cappadocia region is a beautiful place.

The ancient Valley takes its name from the pink rocks that make up this incredible landscape. With fascinating rock formations, hot air balloon rides, and incredible hiking opportunities, the Rose Valley is an essential stop in any trip to Cappadocia.

Red Valley (Kizil Vadasi) is one of the most stunning, rewarding, and remarkable places to visit in Cappadocia, Turkey. It gets its name from the vivid red rock that covers the valley’s landscape. This site is a part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Goreme National Park  and is also one of the most accessible ones.

Tourists love visiting here because of its fantastic yet easy hikes, beautiful sunset spots, historic cave dwellings, ancient churches, and splendid nature surrounding the landscape.

What makes this site so accessible is that it is only a 30-minute walk from Goreme, which also happens to be the center of amazing restaurants, excellent hotels, and shopping.

Explore Derinkuyu Underground City

You’ll find tunnels and entire cities that exist underground throughout the area. The reason is that this particular part of the country was subject to invasion after invasion throughout history, so these cities were built underground to keep everyone safe . You’ll find churches and schools, even cellars and kitchens too.

While there are many of these underground spaces, Derinkuyu is the best preserved and, therefore, the best if you want to get a realistic view of what life was like back in the day. You’ll head around 85 meters underground , and you’ll be able to get a sense of the scale of the place, even though only 10% of it is actually visible.

Antalya is on Turkey’s southwest Mediterranean coast.

How many days in Antalya is enough?

If you are hoping to truly see all the sights in Antalya, four days is a reasonable amount of time. However, if you want to use the city as a base to explore other regions of Turkey , plan to stay longer and add on day trips.

How far is it from Antalya to Pamukkale?

Approximately 3 hours

Can you make a day trip from Antalya to Istanbul?

If you choose to fly, you could do it. The flight is a little over 1 hour. However, there is so much to see in Istanbul that you will want to spend more time than just one day in the city.

Can you make a day trip from Antalya to Cappadocia?

Yes, you can take an overnight bus or a flight that’s just over an hour. If you are only spending one day in Cappadocia, it is best to take a guided tour once there, as it will allow you to see the main sights quickly.

• Hiking & Trekking

Walk the highlights of the Lycian Way

I would have liked more hiking and less stopping for lunches at restaurants. I prefer to be on location with a flexible approach to lunch stops. I thought our guide could have explained the routing better and should have been more engaging. I enjoyed the views, the culture and the locations chosen. The standard of accommodation varied and I was disappointed not to have hot water on arrival (especially having hiked and had a swim in the sea) and first thing in the morning. Otherwise, all good.

Gulet Cruise, Kemer – Kekova – Kemer

Lovely relaxing trip, beautiful scenery and nice boat. Captain and his wife were pleasant and kind. Food was lacking both in variety and amount and dietary requirements, despite having been made aware of previously were not catered for. Drinking water was charged for despite being told it was inclusive at meal times and there were no fishing or snorkelling equipment, again after being told that these were available. It’s a shame as these few tweaks would have made all the difference from it being a good experience to a great one

• In-depth Cultural
• Christmas & New Year

Antalya City Break-4 Days

This tour package offered seamless pick-up and drop-off transfers to and from the airport, along with three diverse tours daily, each with different groups, which added to the experience. Included were lunches which was simple but better than nothing and a delightful three-night stay at a fantastic hotel, complete with breakfast. The punctuality of the pickups was commendable despite the busy holiday season in Turkey, making for smooth travel experiences. Among the highlights was the exploration of the Ancient city of Perge, Aspendos Theater, Manavgat Waterfall, and Side, which left a lasting impression. Communication through WhatsApp was efficient and convenient, enhancing the overall trip experience. Antalya captured my heart, and I look forward to returning in the future.

Absolute Turkey

tour was fine food soso im american so not much choices hotels were ok tour guide was great

Best of Turkey- 10 Days

Loved our time in Turkey, tour was wonderful and our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful with recommendations. The local tour company was very good about coordinating everything and communicating with us via WhatsApp. Everything went smoothly

Essential Turkey

TURKEY TALES: Of all the tours i have been on (which has been a few) this trip was hands down the best tour i have been on. I came to Turkey not knowing what to expect and to be honest a little apprehensive. Although my worries were for naught as i was absolutely blown away by this beautiful country. I dont have a single complaint coming away from this tour. The places we visited were amazing and at all the hotels/pansiyons were hospitable and nice places to stay. The FOOD! ah Turkish food is amazing! We ate at such a diverse range of places and i enjoyed being able to try all the local cuisines. I especially enjoyed the cooking class which a few of us did in Selcuk. Our tour manager and driver were absolutely AMAZING!!! Ekrem was always there if we needed anything and he was always on top of everything, he did his absolute best to make sure we enjoyed ourselves and if we wanted to do extra activities he did his best to facilitate that for us. His love, passion and knowledge of his country made this experience what it was and without him it wouldn't have been the same. At the end of the tour i felt as though i was among family instead of strangers i had only met 2 weeks before. What else can i say? Turkey was amazing and i have been already looking at booking my next holiday there! 10/10! would definitely recommend this tour! The only bad thing was that i didn't do the longer tour! which im definitely kicking myself for!

India Super Saver

Overall this trip was. Some of the hotels were less than desirable but most of them were amazing. The one downside is some of the food that comes with some of the hotels were okay. All the guides were amazing. If there's one negative is this tour went from 10 days to 9 days. I would hope they would reconsider because 9 days is not enough. There's a bit of jet lag that you have to endure if you're coming from somewhere like where we did the USA. Wish we had more time in Istanbul. Overall I had an amazing experience and I would highly recommend this trip.

10 Days Treasures of Turkey Tour

Barış led a wonderful trip! I took this tour during November 2023, which is during the rainy season. Would recommend an umbrella and rain resistant warm layers. Even so, had the full tour experience with all locations listed. Enjoyable tour that I would highly recommend to others. Tour guide was knowledgeable and led a perfect pace to enjoy each space on the walking tour. Fun full day tour of the main tourist spots in Turkey!

Premium Turkey in Depth

The six of us enjoyed an excellent stay in the multicity tour and would gladly tour again with this company.

Turkey: Coastlines & Cappadocia

Was an amazing tour!

The Turkish Tour

Overall the sights and the guides were excellent however t I will not be using this tour company again. On three occasions there was a change of guests embarking and disembarking from the tour as well as change of tour guides creating uncertainty, confusion. In my case I had three different guides and I was also left alone with a guide visiting sites in a taxi. I cancelled two events that were paid for purely because I was unsettled by the whole process. If I wanted to sightsee just with a guide I would not have booked an organized tour. Also there was no headphones or voxboxes on the bus so that you can block out the non English information so you had to listen to everything being said by the tour guides twice once in English and again in Spanish.

In the summer, enjoy the Mediterranean weather: hot during the day and warm at night. Take along shorts and light cotton clothing for the summer months. There is one international airport -- Gazipasa International -- and once you've arrived, buses and taxis are available to take you where you need to go to start your holidays in Antalya right away.

Visit the museums and ruins of Antalya

Take a guided tour of the ruins at Perge and Termessos, or climb the ancient ruins of Hierapolis and Pamukkale and find yourself immersed in the Greek, Roman and Byzantine culture of the past. Be sure to wear comfortable hiking shoes and bring plenty of water to hydrate. And your Antalya holidays would be incomplete without a visit to the Antalya archaeological museum and the Suna Museum in Antalya's Kaleici district. Take a day-trip to the city of Side and stay for the night-life: there are numerous bars and restaurants, and clubs if you feel like dancing.

Antalya is one of the most popular tourist spots on the Turkish Riviera, and not just because of its jaw-dropping coastline and world-class beach resorts.

Antalya is located near many of the best landmarks in Turkey , and its reliable transport system means it’s really easy to explore other areas in the country.

One of the main reasons to visit Antalya is its location. Being practically in the center of the country and nestled on the Turkish Riviera, you can pretty much take a day trip to most of the top sites in the country!

If you’re putting together your itinerary, then you might want to add some day trips from Antalya to your list. While Antalya itself has a whole host of incredible attractions, no trip to Turkey would be complete without visiting some of these Antalya day trips.

How to Take a Day Trip From Antalya

First things first, let’s talk about the ways you can take a day trip. Antalya is a huge city and has a very reliable and trusty transport system. However, some of these day trips are quite a distance, so what is the best way to get to them?

If your chosen attraction is more than an hour or two driving distance outside of Antalya, your best bet would be to hire a car. While buses run regularly and are usually reliable, they are quite slow, and since you’re wanting to take a day trip you’ll want to save as much time as possible.

Some of these day trips require you to fly. Yes, on a plane! But don’t worry, since these attractions are hugely popular, airlines have scheduled flights from as early as 6 AM and returning as late as 11 PM, meaning you could actually fly across the country and see sites and come back the same day. Crazy, right?

Another great way to see day trips is through guided tours. This is the best way to see attractions for those who prefer a ‘no fuss’ way to travel since everything is planned and prepared for you.

In most cases, taking a tour from Antalya is safe and usually cover entrance fees and the cost of your transport, but this is not always the case. Do check with the tour company first to make sure, otherwise, it will be a very costly day out.

Tours will pick you up from your hotel, or a central location, for added convenience.

If you would prefer to do a DIY Antalya day trip, no problem! We prefer to work it out for ourselves too. Below in each of our recommended day trips, we have shared our recommended ‘way to get there’, which could be by bus, plane, hiring a car or tour.

It’s a good idea to see which attractions interest you the most, before thinking about transport as you might decide you’d like to take a couple of these day trips from Antalya.

The Best Day Trips from Antalya

So without further ado, here are the best day trips from Antalya, from historic landmarks to iconic natural settings, these attractions simply cannot be missed out on any Antalya itinerary .

Standing not far away from the ever-popular tourist town of Kusadasi, is one of the most iconic cities in the ancient region – Ephesus .

This oasis of archeological sites is one of the most famous landmarks in Turkey, known for its breathtaking 10th century BC Roman and Ancient Greek ruins.

The site covers almost 6.6 square km, featuring a wide collection of incredibly well-preserved Greco-Roman ruins. Ephesus was once the second largest city of the Roman Empire and therefore one of the most important; it became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2015 .

It’s home to one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World – the spectacular Temple of Artemis. Over twice the size of any other similar ancient Greek temple sites, it took almost 120 years to complete, before being burnt down in 356 BC.

Other important sites in the complex are the Library of Celsus, Temple of Hadrian, and the mighty Roman Amphitheater capable of housing 24,000 spectators.

Although it’s a long distance from Antalya, it’s possible to travel there and back within a day if you are determined enough, though we recommend you stay overnight if you have more time at your disposal.

Ephesus is simply a must-see attraction in Turkey, especially if you only have a short time in the country and want to see some of the most iconic ancient sites!

• Distance from Antalya: 411 km (255 miles)
• Travel time: 5 hours by car, 7 hours by bus, 7 hours 25 minutes by train, 1 hour 10 minutes by plane plus an additional train for 1 hour.
• Best way to get there: To get to Ephesus, you must first get to Izmir. From Izmir, there are three ways to get to Ephesus . Take a plane from Antalya to Izmir Airport (1 hour 10 minutes). From Izmir airport, there is a train (1 hour) directly to Selcuk. From Selcuk, you can walk for 10 minutes to Ephesus, or take a minibus or taxi. There are flights with SunExpress that leave at around 9.20am, and get to Izmir at 10.30am, which would mean arriving at Ephesus at midday at the latest. We would recommend staying in Selcuk to get some lunch before visiting Ephesus since you’ll want to avoid the midday heat. Return flights operate as late as 10.30pm from Izmir Airport with SunExpress so there is plenty of time to enjoy the sites. If you don’t want to arrange it all yourself, you can also book a tour from Antalya to Ephesus.

2. Lycia Rock Tombs

For a perfect day trip adventure, head around two and a half hours south of Antalya to Dalyan, navigating your way along the beach road and following the beach and turquoise Mediterranean waters.

Soon you will have officially entered the land of the Lycians, the name of the people that lived in this area since the records of Ancient Egypt. The Lycians (pronounced Lik-ee-ans) believed that once you died, your spirit was carried to the afterlife by magical winged creatures.

To greater the chances of reaching said afterlife, the Lycians built intricately detailed tombs carved high up into the mountainside, they were mostly reserved for the Kings and Queens of the era.

Built almost 2500 years ago in 500BC, remarkably, these tomb sites are still in excellent condition today and can be seen in small numbers across the region.

• Distance from Antalya: 139 km (86 miles)
• Travel time: 2 hours 20 minutes by car, 3 hours by bus, not available by train
• Best way to get there: The best way to get there is by hiring a car or taking the bus. Since it takes a couple hours, we recommend starting as early as possible. Alternatively, you can book onto a private tour which includes a hotel pick up and drop off.

3. Cappadocia

Contrary to popular belief, Cappadocia isn’t just a city, it’s actually the name for the entire central region of Turkey.

Famous for its breathtakingly beautiful landscape and fairytale-like hot air balloon rides that fill the morning sky, Cappadocia has so much to offer the weary traveler wishing to spend a few days in the area. It’s an excellent place for hikes too, with many trails dotted around the towns leading you to historical chimneys, castles, and sunset views to die for.

For something a little out of the ordinary, you should consider a guided tour of Derinkuyu Underground City , a vast, deep, underground city that was effectively a defensive haven during the brutal invasions of the Middle Ages, large enough to shelter up to 20,000 Cappadocia locals.

The distance from Antalya to Cappadocia is quite far, so you’re going to need to fly if you want to see it in a day, however it’s possible to do it.

You can also book yourself onto one of the red tours or green tours , which are day tours of the region. The tours can pick you up and drop you off at the airport, so you can catch a late evening flight back to Antalya.

It will be a bit of a rush, but if you’re short on time in Turkey and are not afraid of long days, then it’s certainly a journey worth taking.

• Distance from Antalya: 575 km (357 miles)
• Travel time: 7.5 hours by car, 10 hours by overnight bus, 1 hour 15 minute flight from Antalya to Kayseri Erkilet Airport.
• Best way to get there: Since it’s a long drive, the best way to get there is to fly. You can find flights leaving as early as 3AM with Turkish Airlines, transfer in Istanbul, and arrive in Nevsehir at 8AM. You will find return flights with Turkish Airlines at 8.50 PM and gets into Antalya at midnight, so you have a whole day of exploring. Since you only have a day, we recommend opting for either the green tour or red tour . You’ll be tired after, but it will be so worth it. If you have more time on your side, consider taking a 2-day tour of Cappadocia from Antalya with an overnight stay in a cave hotel.

4. Koprulu Canyon

One of the more popular day tours from Antalya and the local region is Koprulu Canyon. A favorite of the locals and tourists alike, it’s a strikingly picturesque national park for swimming, relaxation, and for those brave enough to attempt, even some white water rafting.

Perfect for escaping the heat of the beach, which trust us, if you’re visiting in the summer you’re going to need to find places to cool down in!

With a monumental stone bridge across the Canyon itself the star of the show, there are also smaller bridges more than worthy of checking out too, allowing you to capture the perfect Instagram shot.

With activities like horse riding and quad safaris on offer as well, there’s so much to do here that you might even decide to make use of the camping facilities at the canyon.

• Distance from Antalya: 91 km (56 miles)
• Travel time: 1 hour 40 minutes by car, 45 minutes by bus to Serik and 50 minutes taxi, not available by train
• Best way to get there: Since you would need to take a bus and a taxi (and a 50 minute taxi journey would be expensive) the best and most economical way to get to Koprulu Canyon is to hire a car and drive. If you don’t drive, you can find private tours from local travel agencies to take you to Koprulu Canyon from Antalya, which will pick you up from your hotel and drop you back at your hotel after a full day of exploring.

5. The Taurus Mountains

Running almost parallel with the gorgeous Mediterranean sea lies the snow-capped peaks of the Taurus Mountain range (well, snow-capped in the winter). Throughout Turkey’s rich and diverse history, the Taurus Mountains have remained an iconic symbol of its mythological past.

Boasting rugged limestone terrain and towering peaks and cascading waterfalls, the mountain range is home to small, traditional villages where you can stop for a local lunch and get to know those that live in this remote region of Turkey.

Interestingly, the range gets its name from the historic culture of the surrounding land with the bull (Taurus) and being only a few hour’s drive away, it makes for an excellent day trip from Antalya.

• Distance from Antalya: 250 km (155 miles)
• Travel time: 3 hours by car, not available by bus or train
• Best way to visit: Since there are no trains or buses, the best way to visit is to hire a car and drive. Alternatively, you can find excursions from Antalya that will pick you up from any hotel and drop you home after. If you don’t drive, a day tour is your only option.

6. Fethiye and Oludeniz

Fethiye is an immensely popular tourist resort city nestled along the golden sands of the Turquoise Coast. Arguably one of its main drawing points is Oludeniz, a small town just 15-minutes drive away, which is home to the iconic Blue Lagoon .

It’s got everything a coastal city needs – from huge, stunning Fethiye beaches and promenade, exquisite Turkish restaurants and cafes specializing in the most delicious, fresh seafood, to huge forested mountains like that of Mount Babadag, Fethiye is one excersion you simply have to make.

Not only is the water of the lagoon warm and crystal clear, but its sand is also sumptuously soft making it an ideal place to catch some rays.

If you’d like a more active day trip from Antalya to Fethiye, then worry not. Fethiye is the paragliding capital of Turkey and is one of the highest paragliding jump sites in the world. It’s also a great place to partake in water sports such as stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, and peddle boating.

After a day at the beach, head down to the promenade in Oludeniz to enjoy one of the bars along the seafront, or head over to the ancient abandoned village of Kayakoy for a more cultural experience.

• Distance from Antalya: 194.8 km (121 miles)
• Travel time: 3 hours by car, 5.5 hours by bus, not available by train
• Best way to get there: Since it’s a long drive, you’re only option would be to hire a car and set off very early.

Konya is a major city in south-central Turkey and is steeped in history after having been inhabited since the third millennium (3000) BC.

Within Turkey itself, it’s widely regarded as the country’s ‘spiritual’ capital and as a result, has been almost forgotten about by tourists from all over.

One of the main attractions in Konya is the fascinating tomb of the Persian Sufi mystic Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi, or better known as Rumi. He’s often regarded as one of history’s best, and most influential poets. Rather confusingly for the tourist, Rumi’s tomb name is the Mevlana Museum .

Even if you aren’t familiar with Rumi or his work, the Tomb is simply a must-see when in the area. The interior is sure to take your breath away. Best of all – it’s free!

Konya is a small city and can be seen in a full day, however if you don’t want to get up early to drive to Konya we recommend staying one night and driving back the next day, and seeing Konya over two half days.

• Distance from Antalya: 300 km (186 miles)
• Travel time: 4 hours by car, 6 hours by bus, not available by train
• Best way to get there: it’s going to be a long trek, but you’ve got little choice but to hire a car and drive. You’d need to get up early, but it’s doable.

8. Pamukkale & Hierapolis

Where to start with Pamukkale . Just like Cappadocia, Pamukkale is a mesmerizing UNESCO World Heritage Site and is probably one of the most photogenic places on the planet. This is exactly why you would be a fool not to visit whilst you’re in the country.

Pamukkale literally translates to ‘Cotton Castle’ in Turkish, and is a completely natural site known for the carbonate mineral which has been left by the flowing waters of the Cal Mountain. It’s also famous for its hot water thermal springs which you can actually swim in.

Once you’re done exploring the scenery of Pamukkale, you can head to the ancient Greek city of Hierapolis which is located at the top of the mineral deposits.

The ancient city of Hieropolis dates back to the early 2nd century BC and was built in its location to make use of the hot thermal springs from nearby Pamukkale.

Because of this, it was known as a ‘spa town’ and thousands flocked to Hieropolis to experience the natural wonders on its doorstep.

Unfortunately, like many ancient Greek cities in the area, it was destroyed by an earthquake that didn’t leave much standing. However, you can still see the well-preserved theater and its necropolis with tombs to give you an idea of the layout of this magnificent place. The North Gate is also largely preserved.

History buffs and travelers will also revel in the fact you can also see the tomb of Philip the Apostle too.

For a day trip from Antalya to remember, this is the one – if only you remember it for the long car ride! Don’t worry though, you can find a bunch of tour operators that will run this day trip and include hotel pick up and drop off.

• Distance from Antalya: 240 km (149 miles)
• Travel time: 3 hours by car, 3 hours 15 minutes by bus, N/A minutes by train
• Best way to get there: The best way to get there is by hiring a car or taking a bus, since the bus is only 15 minutes longer. If you don’t want to look up bus times and plan your day, you can also take a guided tour to Pamukkale, which also stops by Hierapolis.

9. The Ancient City of Perge

Wonderfully easy to get to from Antalya city center is the stunning ancient city of Perge . Known for its magnificent amphitheater that housed a capacity of 15,000 people, the old Roman ruins date back well over 3000 years.

The Perge site is vast of ancient ruins, and with buildings like the city’s temple, crumbling school buildings, and its traditional Roman baths to marvel at, you’ll get an idea of what life was really like at Perge all those years ago.

Perhaps most interestingly, Alexander the Great was noted to have ridden horseback through Perge’s gates. Only a short 20-minute drive outside of Antalya, and accessible via the city’s tram network followed by an easy 30 minute walk, Perge is one place you cannot afford to miss.

In fact, it was probably our favorite place we visited on our trip to Antalya. Allow yourself a good 3 hours to explore it all, it’s surprisingly big.

We also recommend visiting late afternoon to avoid the hottest part of the day. It can get quite hot at Perge because it lies within a valley.

• Distance from Antalya: 16 km (10 miles)
• Travel time: 20 minutes by car, 1 hour 10 minutes by bus, not available by train
• Best way to get there: Perge is a really easy day trip to get to by hiring a car or taking a public bus. Buses go direct from Mevlana Cd-1 Antalya and depart every 20 minutes. It takes just over an hour, so it’s completely doable to do this by yourself. If you want a no fuss way to travel, you can find tours that take you to Perge, as well as to other sites nearby like Aspendos and the waterfalls. If you’re not hiring a car, this might be a good option since it’s not easy to get around these other places by public transport.

10. The Sunken City of Kekova

If you’d like to get off the beaten track and see something that most have not, then simply take a boat trip from Antalya to the small Turkish island of Kekova from the coastal town of Demre.

Its waters and coast line are beautiful, however, what really steals the show is the partly sunken ruins of the ancient town of Kekova that once stood on the island.

Destroyed by an earthquake during the 2nd century, Kekova was rebuilt and remained a working dockyard until it was abandoned due to Arabic invasions.

The Turkish government have banned swimming around the ruins due to looting, however it still makes for excellent viewing with plenty of opportunities to get great pictures. You can take boat tours and kayak tours.

• Distance from Antalya: 140 km (87 miles)
• Best way to get there: The best way to get there is by hiring a car and driving, or you can take the bus since it goes direct from Kızılırmak Cd-5 to Demre. From Demre, the only way to see Kekova is by boat tour, which you can purchase on arrival in Demre.If you don’t want all the fuss, it’s also possible to book a tour from Antalya which picks you up and drops you off at your hotel.

Alanya is another coastal city not to be missed, especially if you enjoy lazing on the beach and discovering ancient cities.

The biggest draw to Alanya is Kleopatra Beach, a 1km beach that’s named after the Queen of Egypt, who was said to have enjoyed swimming there.

The beach has soft sand and gentle waves, which make for the perfect place to relax and enjoy a day by the coast.

Another top site to check out in Alanya is Alanya Castle, which is perched on a hilltop overlooking Kleopatra Beach on one side, and the marina on the other. You can reach the castle by a short 5-minute cable car ride or you can hike or take a bus.

The castle is surrounded by a citadel filled with ancient sites and ruins, and flanked by an ancient city wall. It’s free to walk around the citadel but you have to pay to enter the castle area (which we personally don’t think is worth it – see why here ).

Alanya is a buzzing city but it feels quite relaxed compared to Antalya. Although possible to see on a day trip, you may decide you want to stay a few days!

• Distance from Antalya: 133 km (149 miles)
• Travel time: 2 hours by car, 3 hours by bus, not available by train
• Best way to get there: Since the bus takes a long time and the bus station is a distance from the center of Antalya, it’s easier to hire a car and drive.

12. Tahtali Mountain

The Tahtali Mountain, also known as Tahtali Dagi or Lycian Olympus, is one of the largest peaks in Southern Turkey. Standing mightily tall at a whopping 7,762 ft, back in Ancient Greece the mountain was called Mount Olympus.

If you’re unfamiliar with Ancient Greece and its mythology, Olympus actually means ‘home of the gods’. As we’ve pointed out, there are many ancient cities lying in ruin across this area of the country and that’s no different with Tahtali. The 2700-year-old town of Phaselis lies in ruin at the base of the mountain which you can visit for yourself.

If climbing a mountain isn’t particularly your thing whilst on holiday, luckily, there is a funicular which takes you to the summit of the peak, giving you easy access to the sublime views of the region.  

• Distance from Antalya: 72 km (44 miles)
• Travel time: 1 hour 20 minutes by car, 1 hour 20 minutes by bus, not available by train
• Best way to get there: Unless you’re thinking of hiring a car to visit other day trips from Antalya, it’s probably easier to get a bus. If you don’t like figuring out bus routes, then you can always opt for a tour from Antalya. Though this does include the funicular to the peak. If you want to hike, you would find it easier to hire a car as you can park at the trailhead.

13. Kuzdere Passage Hike

The Kuzdere Passage is a gorgeous hiking trail that is part of the much larger group of trails called the Lycian Way. If you’re into hiking and love to get your blood pumping, then this should be at the top of your to-do list if you’re in the area.

Under 1 hour from Antalya, it leads you through jaw-dropping valleys, past a fast river, lush green woodland, and incredible views, there really isn’t any excuse not to head out and explore on foot.

Oh – and did we mention, natural springs are conveniently located along the way for you to take a break and cool off from the scorching Turkish sun. Bliss!

• Distance from Antalya: 46 km (28 miles)
• Travel time: 45 minutes by car, 1 hour 10 minutes by bus, not available by train
• Best way to get there: Since it’s not too far out of Antalya, you can get a public bus to Kemer from Antalya Büyükşehir Belediyesi-2 and then take a taxi to the trailhead.

14. Aspendos & Side Old Town

If you enjoyed the historical site of Perge, then you’ll enjoy visiting Aspendos and the nearby town of Side, which are two other ancient historical landmarks from the Greco-Roman period.

Aspendos is an ancient city, though little remains of it besides a very well-preserved amphitheatre. In fact, the theatre is still used for operas and performances today.

Nearby is the town of Side, which as well as its stunning beaches and picturesque landscapes, also has quaint cobbled streets and and ruins scattered around its old town.

Some notable landmarks are the Apollon Temple, Side Amphitheatre, and the remains of the Agora. The town is also lined with shops, bars, and restaurants built into the ruins, creating a unique ambiance.

• Distance from Antalya: 48.2 km (121 miles) to Aspendos, 73.5 km to Side
• Travel time: 45 minutes by car to Aspendos, 1 hour to Side
• Best way to get there: Aspendos is not easy to visit using public transport since the buses run infrequently and there’s still a 50 minute walk from where the bus drops you off to the site. You should hire a car and drive yourself or book a day tour. We made the mistake of visiting Aspendos ourselves without taking a day trip from Antalya, and what a mistake that was! We took a bus from Side and then discovered there was no bus back and had to hitchhike in the dark. Don’t make the same mistake we did and book yourself a tour or get a hire car.

15. Adrasan-Suluada Island

If boat trips and a golden beach in Antalya are what get you up in the morning, then you should be all over this day trip to the Adrasan-Suluada Island. Just a short 40-minute sailing away, you’ll be given access to a small but wonderful island.

Often compared to the Maldives, Suluada’s calm turquoise waters are home to a natural reef and as a result, you can have the pleasure of getting up close to a vast array of marine wildlife.

With no electricity or running water on the tiny island, it’s really only for day trips, however, if you’d like to spend multiple days there, you can stay in the nearby town of Adrasan or Olympos.

• Distance from Antalya: 90 km (55 miles)
• Travel time: 1 hour 30 minutes by car to Adrasan, or 1 hour 50 minutes by bus, and then 45 minutes by boat
• Best way to get there: Since its an island, the only way to get there is by boat. You will need to get to Adrasan first, where the boats depart from. You can either drive or take the bus from Antalya bus station. Buses depart every 3 hours so make sure to check the times before you go. If you’re worried about time, you can also book a tour in advance. These boat tours pick you up from your hotel and drive to Adrasan where a boat is waiting for you.

16. Goynuk Canyon

If you’re looking for an active day trip nearby Antalya, then Goynuk Canyon is one of the places you simply HAVE to visit. Famous across the region for its astounding beauty, a variety of activities can be done at the park utilizing the rugged terrain it sits upon.

At the heart of the canyon is a fast-flowing wild river that’s used for white-water rafting, and a little further in you can find a gorgeous waterfall and the opportunity to go on a safari tour that makes the most of the nature and beauty of the park.

You’ll need to carry some change as there is a small entrance fee to gain access to the Canyon.

• Distance from Antalya: 36 km (22 miles)
• Travel time: 45 minutes by car, 50 minutes by bus, not available by train
• Best way to get there: It’s very easy to get to by public bus. Buses leave from Kızılırmak Cd-5 every 8 minutes and take you directly to the canyon.

Kemer is an idyllic town on the coast of the Turkish Riviera that’s free and easily accessible from Antalya. Widely known for its huge stretch of pebble beach together with its large marina, Kemer is a beautiful spot if you’d like to get off the beaten track and do some sightseeing.

Behind the town, nearby, is the sumptuously green pine forests of the Beydaglari National Park, where you can go for hikes and explore the hills of southern Turkey. This is also the location of the beginning of the cable car to the summit of Tahtali Mountain (Olympos) which we touched on earlier.

Kemer’s market is also a fantastic place to source local produce, running every day from early morning to early evening.

• Distance from Antalya: 44 km (27 miles)
• Travel time: 45 minutes by car, 45 minutes by bus, not available by train
• Best way to get there: There is a public bus that leaves from İl Sağlık Müdürlüğü and takes you directly to Kemer. It runs every 20 minutes and takes 45 minutes. Of course, if you’re interested in learning about the history and culture of Kemer, you can book Antalya day tours to Kemer too.

What the hell you cannot do Ephesus or Cappadocia or anything else involving flights on a day trip.. stupid suggestions.

Hey Karmen,

Thank you for your input. These places are quite far from Antalya, so you would have to get an early flight (the earliest one is usually around 7 to 9 AM) and then take the latest flight back. It is possible, but it might not be worth it since you won’t be able to spend a very long time in these places, especially in Cappadocia where you need several days.

Hi, I appreciate your effort to provide the valuable and very useful information, but many of these are not day trips.

Might I suggest, anything over 2hrs each way (at most) is an overnighter, and even that’s a stretch for most people spending 4 hours in transport.

Hi Sam, thank you for your comment. Yes, some of these are quite a long day trip from Antalya, however they are all doable in a day. It’s quite common to see day tours to Pamukkale, Ephesus and Cappadocia from Antalya for example. While there is a lot of travel involved, it’s great for people who are short on time and don’t have a long time to spend in Turkey. You are right that anywhere over 2 hours drive is best seen as an overnight stay and that’s how we would prefer to see some of these places, but if you are short on time, it’s totally possible to visit these destinations as a day trip.
