Sailing into Butterfly Valley |
One lady who travelled
on our Sailing
the Lycian Shore was so enchanted with her short
strolls along the Lycian Way, Turkey’s first long distance
footpath, that she demanded a trip with more walking. So
we created this tour which charts the same coast, but visits
different sites with the emphasis on more trekking. It proved
a tremendous success when we ran it for the first time last
year.
Rated by The Sunday Times as one of the ten best walks in
the world, the Lycian Way follows 500km of ancient trails
and mule roads that linked the region before the coming
of the car. We follow some of its very best stretches, averaging
about 6-7 miles walking a day, with the Almira ever present
offshore, providing luxurious transport, dining and accommodation.
This is a dream trip for walkers and sailors alike, with
fabulous swims and stunning archaeology thrown in for good
measure.

We’ll stroll along
Roman roads, retrace the routes of 2,000 year old aqueducts,
and follow in the footsteps of characters from Alexander the
Great to modern day shepherds.
On foot we will be able to discover many of the truly remote
archaeological sites, like Phellos ‘stony place’, a small town
perched precariously on a pinnacle, or Apollonia, a wild ancient
place, with a grand necropolis. More often than not we’ll be
the only people exploring such ruins.
From footpaths by the coast, to goat tracks high up in the hills,
this is sure to be an archaeological cruise packed full of breathtaking
panoramas.

The way
each site unfolded yet another layer of history
and understanding was brilliant.
