Lycian Way Trekking Tour (7 Days)

Posted By : peterv129
We did a 3 day tour on Lycian Way paths with a private group of 7 including family and friends. We started at Fethiye. Our guide Fatih made this a wonderful experience. We loved the beautiful landscapes, breathtaking views and variations in flora and de fauna along the coast. The tour included a short visit to Sidyma ancient city where we met Kate Clow, writer and creator of Turkey's long distance trekking route The Lycian Way. The tour was very well organized and included delicious meals and good hotels. Fatih adapted the tour whenever needed and organized all transport. He was also very knowledgeable about local history, flora and fauna. In short, a great experience for all participants.

2 families took an 8-day trip along the Lycian Way at the end of February. The weather was perfect as well as the views. The sea was still a little cool but that didn't stop our children. Overlandtravel enabled us to have a tailor-made holiday. Our guide Fatih was very attentive to our group. The route chosen, the difficulty of the walk, the various visits, the hotels chosen... everything was organised to measure. He made us meet with Kate Clow. The minibus driver Mujdat even went barracuda fishing with our children. We all came home with memories in our heads and the calves of champions.

Our group had an incredible time hiking the Lycian Way. Fatih was a brilliant guide, sharing his extensive knowledge and love for his country and catering for all our needs. The hiking was challenging but rewarding and Fatih allowed for swimming opportunities whenever possible. Being hosted by villagers made it a truly authentic and unforgettable experience.

I don’t know how we got so lucky to find Fatih and Overland Travels for our small group’s incredible personalized trek and cultural tour along the Lycian Way. Words and photos are not going to be nearly sufficient to describe our experience, but I will try. Initially, we chose the independent self-guided tour curated by Fatih, but later reading about the trail caused us to change our minds and include the guide, which turned out to be the best choice and an unexpected special experience we will remember for a long time. Fatih crafted such a heartfelt, thoughtful, personable experience and provided an incredible level of service and genuine care that made us feel like family. He was attentive to the moment and the feel of our small group, making appropriate adjustments along the way, with a sensitivity that was really something special. He has a great attention to detail, is an aesthete who knows really good authentic food, people and experiences, has an appreciation of history, quiet, beauty, humor, respect for nature, good relationships with people and has a lot of patience. We were hard to corral at times and he was incredibly accepting and tolerant, yet kept us on task and drove the pace in a firm but sensitive way so that we got the most out of the tour. The hotels and pensions were well chosen, family-run establishments that we loved, run by good people. The tour he curated was extremely well put together and focused on the best parts of the Lycian Way and breathtaking cultural experiences rich with many ancient city ruins, tombs of different eras, a fort, a beautiful boat ride to a sunken city with lunch and swimming in a cove, lots of walks, hiking and swimming. He arranged our airport to hotel transportation and arranged a very sweet driver for the whole tour. We fell in love with Turkiye and it’s people and can not wait to go back under Fatih’s care, again, of course! This was an experience of a lifetime that changed us. Teşekkür ederim, from the bottom of our hearts. It was really special to meet you and your country. 🙏

Fatih had a tightly organized schedule for us. We combined sailing, trekking, sight-seeing and swimming. He was also very flexible with last minute demands of schedule changes. We felt we got the best of all worlds...

We wanted to combine lycian way trekking by staying on boat and sailing for one week. Fatih was the person who made it possible! He is very knowledgable on the routes, so he perfectly combined our sea route with transfers and trekking trips. He showed us the least known sites. I am impressed as a local and look forward to more trekking trips. Stongly recommended!
