Another successful journey with Strannik! The timing worked out perfectly: I finished my journey along the Eastern Lycian Way and went straight on to the Western one! Different and interesting in a new way, with new trails and places to stay and spend the night.
I especially enjoyed:
- Ölüdeniz (in the Blue Lagoon, a couple of hours kayaking - and life is wonderful!),
- the cozy mountain motel Keyifa in the Butterfly Valley (a wonderful rainstorm that ended just in time and didn't stop us from enjoying a magical sunset),
- the village of Kabak (cozy Sea Valley bungalows. A swimming pool by the beach, a turquoise bay),
- the dunes in Patara and the cozy Apollo Hotel with its very serious and responsible owner.
- the waterfall in the canyon, where we were accompanied by the rugged and hospitable Volkan, who captured unforgettable moments for us, together with his faithful dog Mindalinka...
Every place has its own special charm...
The comfort of our journey was, of course, thanks to the professionals - the organizers and guides who accompanied us. Many thanks to Dima Mulyaev for the delicate and almost invisible organization of our accommodation and lunches. A very intelligent, tactful and professional guide.
A pleasant bonus to my journey was the promised discount on the tour for having previously purchased a tour with Strannik.
I would also like to mention the very convenient option provided before every journey - the packing list. Nothing unnecessary, and everything you need - trust it, follow it, and you won't regret it! :)
And since I can now compare two completed journeys (the Eastern and Western trails), in my opinion, it would be ideal if the groups were no larger than 10-12 people. However, looking back, I can't say that the group size prevented us from fully enjoying the trip - the guides did everything necessary both for our comfort and for bringing together such different, yet active, interesting and wonderful people.
Thank you, Strannik, for these wonderful moments! :)
