What to expect
Surrounding yourself with natural beauty on a river cruise from Dalyan is a great way to unwind. One of Turkey's most pristine beaches is the destination, with stops at mud baths and a riverside restaurant en route. Ceren, one of our local guides, says, ‘Iztuzu Beach is also known as Turtle Beach because endangered loggerhead turtles nest here. It's a magical spot with very little human interference. The beach was all set to be developed with new resorts in the 1980s, but luckily conservation was prioritised.'Sail down the Dalyan River on an eco-friendly boat – which doesn't harm marine life – and have fun smoothing on the anti-ageing clay at the mud baths. It's great for glowing skin, and it's believed that Cleopatra visited for a pampering soak in the mineral-rich liquid mud. Finish with a dip in the warm sulphur pool before gliding across the river for a freshly prepared lunch of local dishes. You'll then add a little history and culture to the mix, as you continue on the riverboat past Lycian Rock Tombs – dating back to 400BC – carved into the cliffs.As the river widens into a lagoon, you'll have the chance to spot birdlife before docking at Iztuzu Beach. This 4km-long sweep of golden sand divides the river from the sea, a natural oasis that's a true haven for wildlife. Sheltered by mountains, the beach shelves gently into a calm bay, where an afternoon of pure relaxation beckons. Round off your day with the return relaxing river cruise to Dalyan.

Fantastic trip and incredible value for money. Advice. It's a long 2 hour coach journey so be prepared. Take your flip flops to the mud bath. Lot's of painful stones when walking between treatments. Showers/hose down are cold. You won't see many or any turtles in November. Positive. Great guide, basic but lovely meal, stunning river wild life, invigorating treatments, unbelievable tombs and wonderful secluded beach. Incredible value for money

We really enjoyed hearing about the ancient tombs. The tour guide was very knowledgeable. The mud bath was pointless first thing in the morning in october as it was absolutely freezing and from the description expected it to be at the end of the tour when the sun was out. The river tour was lovely. Not enough time at the beach and 2 hour transfer on a bus each way was too long. This should be made clear when booking.

The trip itself is good, although the boat ride could have been made much shorter if the boat picked up the speed just a little bit. The main disappointment is that we had to travel to the boat for 1,5 hrs (and same time back) however there were boats departing to the same destination a 20 min walk from our hotel. Had we known, we wouldn’t have purchased from tui and used a local provider. Also the toilets on the way back weren’t free and no free water even during lunch which was mediocre
