Dalyan Mud Baths and Turtle Beach Day Trip from Bodrum

Boat ride to Mud bath had mesmerising views of dalyan and it's mountains anf lakes, had loads of fun covering ourselves in the sulfur-rich mud and felt rejuvenated afterwards! Turkey beach is the nicest, cleanest , sand beach in Sarigerme and dalyan and we got to see 2 large turtles after feeding crab into the sea....some excellent memories you mustn't miss out on!

The tour is the purest rip-off, first it goes to an overpriced rest stop, where you only have 20 minutes to order, eat and go to the toilet, then a very long drive to the mud bath which is just for entertainment and you hardly have time again. Then we went on the boat to a restaurant where the food looked like it came from outside a can. Afterwards we went by boat to the graves, this view was beautiful and the boat trip was also very pleasant thanks to the captain. Upon arrival at the turtle beach, you got 2 hours to swim in the sea (which you have anyway in the hotel) and only 10 minutes to try to see turtles. (For 3 crabs 15€ is also overpriced) If you want to be ripped off, you are welcome to do the tour, the indicated shuttle in the tour price is also to be enjoyed with caution, usually cost extra.

Overall the trip was great. However, I think the time spent on certain locations and activities could have been optimized. So we needed more time during main activities, Like mud for example, and less time during beach time..and we couldn't watch properly the turtles..most of the time spent on the beac

very good day out enjoyed everything apart from the long transfer from bodrum 6hrs in total .. but can't be helpt.

The tour was amazing. We stopped for breakfast first, (extra charge) went to the mud baths and the kings tombs and turtle beach. There were two tour guides, Esra was lovely, she was friendly, knowledgable and smiley and you can tell she enjoyed her job. The other blonde lady not so much, although she didn’t speak English that doesn’t matter, her mannerisms were rude, she barged passed us pushing me almost knocking my bag off my shoulder whilst I was in the breakfast que, she was just blunt and downright rude the whole day. That aside, we had a lovely day, the place they took us for lunch was really lovely, it was a buffet lunch and the food was really nice and there was plenty of it. I tried the blue crab on return and that was also really nice. And I highly recommend buying some fresh pomegranate Joyce on the boat. It was delicious. I had three bottles at only 50TL a bottle. The tombs were amazing, as a tour it’s nightly recommended, however we travelled from bodrum and I think it I did it again it would only be if I was staying closer like marmaris. As this is an extremely long coach ride. Approx 9 hours of the day was travelling by coach there and back.

Fantastic trip with beautiful views and exciting history. Everything was well organized. The highlight was the turtle beach and the boat trip in the river.

Great experience compared to other tours in Bodrum. The drive was long but there were no tourist traps that wasted time to push jewelry or other irrelevant goods. There were three guides who explained the tour stops in different languages and the language barriers were mostly irrelevant. Especially since the stops were fairly self explanatory. The mud bath was fun, the boat tour was lovely, and the beach was wonderful. The stops for breakfast and lunch were decent (not amazing but no complaints). It felt like we had just the right amount of time to enjoy each stop. Note that this tour is listed on different sites with different prices... So shop around.

Amazing boat trip around the riverbed. All our expectations were fullfilled. We had a nice captain and his wive made us a very good lunch! Bus and boat transfers were perfectly arranged, also drinks and snacks on the boat were available and cheap! We would certainly recommend to book this trip and spot some big turtles on your way!

Fantastic day out. The tour guide explained everything that was going to happen, with a bit of humour aswell. Th crew on the boat could not have been more helpful. We had a great time at the mudbaths and jumped into the lake. What an experience. Then we saw some amazing sights on the way to Turtle beach. We took so many videos and pictures. We will never forget how much fun we had. I can thoroughly recommend this trip. Thanks everyone for making it special

A fantastic day out in stunning scenery. The tombs are spectacular and Turtle Beach is beautiful. Highly recommended.
