There are many excursions, the question is how much time you plan to devote to them (if you are going for 7 days, this is one thing, if for 2 weeks, then you can already approach the matter in a big way). The fact is that some interesting excursions from Alanya take a lot of time (for example, Demre-Mira-Kekova).
Of the relatives, as an option, Green Canyon is the most beautiful reservoir in the mountains.
Such popular excursions as Pamukkale and Cappadocia take 1-2 days and are not cheap.
There are short excursions - a yacht trip along the coast, etc. - just a few hours.
In any case, do not buy excursions from hotel guides (overpay 1.5-2 times), better from street agencies, everything is the same in quality.

Be sure to take a sightseeing tour of Alanya (with access to the sea on a yacht, with a visit to the stalactite cave of Cleopatra, as well as the ancient 1000-year-old fortress. It is located on a rock, at an altitude of 250 meters - the view from this point on Alanya is simply amazing !!!) If you take an excursion in TEZ TOUR, then you will also be fed in a restaurant, since you skip lunch at the hotel. The tour itself is quite long: from 9 am to 16-17 pm. Also go to the water park "TROY" (Troy), fool around and ride the water slides with all your heart!!! There are about 30 of them (slides) of all kinds, about 30. You will also be fed there. But the water park "Water Planet" we did not like. You can go to Demre-Mira Kekova, Cappadocia, rafting, but it's all very far away: about 5-6 hours one way by bus. You shouldn't go fishing on the Manavgat River: it's funny to watch how 50-60 people try to catch 20 fish (trout) for bread crumbs, which are released into the river before their arrival.
We also really enjoyed the Fires of Anatolia concert, although we don't understand anything about dancing. The cost of 1 ticket is $60 - it seems to be a little expensive, but Muscovites told us that in their capital a ticket cost $500, and you can get more horseradish!!! Good luck!!!

We took a boat trip (we left early in the morning and returned in the evening). It was great! We swam at a depth in the purest water, visited wild beaches, fed and caught fish, the team gave us a mini concert, fed us a delicious dinner (grilled chicken and fish), learned a lot about Turkey. It was fun!

First of all, the Alanya area is quite remote from the main attractions, when traveling for 10 days, I recommend choosing one of the excursions: Demira-Kekova (one-day) or Pamukkale + Ephesus (2 days), I warn Antalya Overview is primarily shopping with a visit to 3 shopping centers, the information program will take 40 minutes, the same will be a walk along the sea along the waterfalls + 20-30 minutes of free inspection of the embankment and the market, as a rule, this excursion is offered for $ 10-15 (a present from the travel agency). But a boat trip with a visit to Cleopatra Beach you can take, although it’s easy to get to Antalya on your own, calmly walk along its streets, embankment. If you want to shake things off a little - jeep safari and rafting are good - fun excursions with a touch of extreme. Yes, be sure to visit the Turkish bath on the first evening! Many hotels hold nat.
in the evening, but it's still better to go on a Turkish Night tour (it's worth it for the first visit to the country), if you are young or just active - foam disco on the ship. The last two offers take place late in the evening and at night, i.e. enjoy the sea during the day.

We really liked the excursion to the Green Canyon, the cleanest lake with fresh water, an excellent lunch, catch a fish, swim, 2 couples went, everyone was delighted. If you like outdoor activities, you can go rafting (by the way, we drove for 2 hours, no more). In the water park, too, I advise you just do not burn! Yes, take excursions on the street, don't be afraid, much cheaper than with a separate guide...

Be sure to take a sightseeing tour of Alanya. You have to see where you've been. She is versatile, you won't get tired. After 9 you leave by 18 you arrive. Shops, fortress, cave, boat trip + lunch.

Cappadocia, Demre-Mira-Kekova, jeep safari, Pamukkale-Ephesus. Alternatively, you can go rafting.
With regards to sightseeing tours, this is nonsense. It is better to gather a few people and explore the city by yourself. So much more interesting and productive. And sightseeing tours are nonsense, because. they take you to stupid stores mostly where you usually don't buy anything. Although, if for the first time in Turkey, then you can go to the survey. And with regards to shopping, it is better to make purchases in stores where prices in Turkish liras are cheaper and better.

Last year, at TEZ TOUR, such an excursion cost $ 65 per person. But to go one way by bus for more than 5 hours, of which half of the way is a mountain serpentine, it's hard.

Katerina3, at prices for this year, you need to go to the tour operator's website and see, because The cost also depends on the time of year. In April, as far as I remember, this tour does not include a yacht, i.e. only Demre-Mira (about 55 bucks). But at the end of May, the whole complex was already there.

We went on excursions from the Kitabus travel agency - there are friends from our friend. Pamukkakle for 50, a yacht for 15, Bath for 20, Demre - Kekova for 50, and the entrance to the temple was included in the price, jeep safari for 20 dollars. They fed on all excursions, there was also dinner in Pamukkale, however, they paid separately for the Cleopatra pool - $ 18. We ordered by phone and paid on the spot when we were picked up from the hotel. For those who are interested, mobile: 00905324546496, from a payphone: 05324546496 His name is Zafer, he speaks Russian well
