Family Friendly
No Experience Required

The bus pulls away from Fethiye at first light, windows framing a coastline that shifts from scrubby hills to sheer limestone cliffs falling into turquoise water. Passengers trade city hum for the rhythm of rural Turkey: cracked tarmac, roadside tea stalls, and distant bleats of goats. The day moves in chapters—sea, village, viewpoint—each with a different pace and sensory cast.
