Saklikent Tour Itinerary and Route Details

We start early in the morning by meeting our guests and sharing information about the tour. Our first stop is Tlos Ancient City, reached after about an hour’s drive. Located between the Esen River and the Akdağ Mountains, this historic site was an important settlement of the Lycian civilization.

Built on a rugged hill for easy defense in ancient times, Tlos stands out with its impressive stonework and preserved ruins. You can still see Roman-era walls, tombs, and inscriptions here. It’s also famous in mythology as the home of Bellerophon, the rider of Pegasus. Our guides share detailed stories about this ancient city to make the visit even more meaningful.

Visit to Yaka Village and Windmill

After exploring Tlos, we continue to Yaka Village. Here, we enjoy a delicious lunch at our restaurant next to a restored windmill. Known as Yaka Park, this area is famous for its waterfalls and icy cold waters. You can dip your feet in the cool streams while relaxing in lush greenery and savoring local dishes.

After lunch, our route takes us to Gizlikent Waterfall. Reached by descending around 200 steps, this waterfall is the perfect spot to cool off on hot summer days. It’s a great place to take photos and soak in the natural beauty. Gizlikent is one of the most striking natural attractions in the area.
