Catch two sides of Turkey in one day—freshwater cascades and Antalya’s atmospheric old town. This full‑day tour from Side takes you to Kurşunlu Waterfall and drops you in Kaleiçi for hours of independent exploration.

The bus peels away from Side's boulevard and the Mediterranean opens into a long blue shoulder; palms and orange groves blur past as the guide fills the cabin with dates and facts. By mid-morning you’re walking under a canopy of pines toward a narrow gorge where Kurşunlu (Alexandra) Waterfall announces itself—water that has been working at the limestone for centuries, cutting channels, pooling into glassy basins, daring you to step closer.

Wear grippy shoes
Wooden walkways and cobbles can be slippery near the falls and in Kaleiçi; closed-toe shoes with good tread keep you steady.
Bring sun protection
Antalya can be hot and exposed—sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat matter during summer and shoulder seasons.
Carry small change
Entrance fees, café purchases and tips are easiest to handle with cash in small denominations.
Reserve cable car early
If you want the panoramic ride, tell your guide at pickup—spaces are limited and often sell out in summer.
Comfortable walking shoes
Grip and foot support for damp boardwalks and cobblestones.
Light daypack
Carry water, snacks, camera and a light layer during coastal breezes.
Sun protection (hat & sunscreen)
Midday sun on the coast can be intense—protect skin and eyes.
