08:00–09:00 — Hotel Pickup
Your driver collects you from your hotel in Antalya, Belek, Side, or Kemer. Exact pickup time varies by hotel location and will be confirmed with your booking.
09:00–10:30 — Perge Ancient City
Founded around 1000 BC, Perge was one of the great cities of ancient Pamphylia. Walk the grand colonnaded street, explore the Roman baths, pass through the monumental gate complex, and see the stadium — one of the largest surviving from antiquity. Entrance fee paid locally at the ticket office.
10:30–11:30 — Aspendos Roman Theater
Built in the 2nd century AD, Aspendos Theater is one of the best-preserved Roman amphitheaters in the world — its 15,000-seat cavea still hosts opera and festivals today. Your guide covers the history and acoustics before you explore freely. Entrance fee paid locally at the ticket office.
11:30–13:00 — Lunch
Sit-down lunch at a local restaurant, typically beside the Köprüçay River near Aspendos. Lunch is included; drinks are on your own account.
13:00–15:00 — Side Ancient City & Temple of Apollo
Side (pronounced 'see-deh') is a rare mix of living town and layered ancient ruins — marble columns rise beside seafront cafés and the Temple of Apollo stands at the tip of the headland. After the guided section you'll have free time to wander, explore the beach, or browse the covered bazaar.
15:00–15:45 — Kursunlu or Manavgat Waterfall
Waterfall entrance is included. Kursunlu sits within a forested park with stone bridges and clear pools; Manavgat cascades wide across the river. A calm end to a full day of history.
15:45–18:00 — Return to Antalya
Comfortable return drive in the air-conditioned minibus. ~
18:00 — Hotel Drop-off
Back at your hotel in time for dinner.
