Itinerary
one of the largest and most popular ancient city in the Pamphylia region. Perge was the capital of Pamphylia then eventually came under Roman rule in 133B.C. and this is when it flourished most and indeed most of the ruins that are left today are from that area. You will see the Agora, Roman Baths, Colonnaded Street, Nympharium and also Grand amphitheater which could hold 15.000 people.
Probably an earlier ancient theatre, was built 2nd century on the site. The Aspendos theatre can hold over 20,000 and ıs still being used for festivals and music concerts.
one of the most popular and classical ancient citys of Turkey, also became an important base for the Cilician pirates and their slave trade and profited from this. With the defeat of the pirates, Side fell under the control of Rome and became part of the Roman Empire and many constructions took place in Side such as a large theatre, Roman Baths and The Temple of Apollo.
This Waterfall is a unique place where a cascade connecting seven ponds falls over an 18-metre height against a backdrop of green nature.

Traveler reviews
A great Turkish experience.
This was an excellent tour and a highlight of our time in Antalya. Our guide, Suphan, was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging. Having lived in the area for many years, he shared unique insights into the region’s history and culture that we would not have discovered on our own. The itinerary was very well-paced—we never felt rushed and had plenty of time to enjoy each stop, as well as some free time to explore at our own pace. The archaeological sites in the Antalya region are truly impressive, and this tour provided a great way to experience them in a meaningful way. Communication before the tour was seamless. Both the company and Suphan were very responsive via WhatsApp, and all pickup and meeting details were clearly organized, making the entire experience stress-free from start to finish. A big thank you to Suphan for such a memorable day—and for the delicious Turkish lunch! Highly recommended.

We signed up for this tour as a private tour - which I would highly recommend. It's a little more expensive, but you schedule exactly what you want. We got all the time we wanted exploring these great old cities.
