Overview
For the ultimate discovery of Kekova and Demre (Myra), choose this private tour from Kas (KaĹź), which incorporates the best nature and historical spots in the region.
The boat trip includes stops in the gorgeous deep blue waters of Esmeralda Bay and Burç Bay, as well as the chance for breathtaking panoramic views from the top of Kaleköy village. On land, our highlights include St. Nicholas Church (the original resting place of the real-life Santa Claus), and the ruins of the famous tombs of Myra.
You’ve picked an excellent choice with an exclusive tour of Demre, Myra, and Kekova. Be ready and waiting at your hotel in Kaş as we will arrive at 8am to drive you to Demre.
There’s also no need to rush down breakfast before you leave. It’s our job to make sure you are well-fed, with a delicious meal at Botanix Cafe and Bistro. Following this, we’ll make a move to Demre harbour so you can start your boat adventure together.
