Morning light paints the Taurus foothills as a convoy of jeeps peels away from Fethiye, dust kicking up like a challenge. Engines hum; guides check lists and hand out water guns for the first playful ambush in Çırpı Forest — a brief, wet chaos that snaps the group awake. From there the route unfolds through scrubby hills and limestone outcrops toward Tlos, where rocky terraces and Lycian tombs sit silent on a distant ridge, visible from the road.
