4.Full Day Boat Trip around Cesme with BBQ Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 208 reviews · 11 hours · from $89

Spend 11 hours from Izmir exploring Cesme by boat, with swimming stops, island walks, snorkeling, BBQ lunch, and included transfers.

“It was a beautiful day on the water. The company was amenable to move the pick up closer to our hotel (note you are not picked up at your hotel but rather central meeting points), and it was a comfortable ride to Cesme. The boat started at 11 and ended close to 630. The water was cold but refreshing. There was live entertainment at one point and dance music throughout. We had 4 swimming stops, lasting 45 min to one hour each time. The rides in between the islands weren’t too long. I think it worked to split them up as most people wanted a break after close to an…”

5.Pirate Boat Tour w/ BBQ & Foam Party

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 160 reviews · 6 - 7 hours · from $29

Sail Alanya’s coast on a pirate boat with cave stops, swimming, BBQ lunch, soft drinks, hotel transfers, and a lively foam party.

“The whole experience was great and fun. Only issue was the boat was slightly overcrowded. There wasn’t enough seating to accommodate everyone and if you got up without leaving your belongings someone would take your seat. There were plenty of times to jump off the boat and swim which a lot of people enjoyed. I would do this trip again but maybe on a week day when it won’t be as busy.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 117 reviews · 8 hours · from $71

Spend eight hours cruising Cesme’s clear Aegean bays, swimming, snorkeling, enjoying a BBQ lunch, and relaxing on a reserved lounger.

“I had boat trips in different countries, but Poseidon is the best Boat experience I've ever had. The Captain and crews are very efficient, polite, and good-looking 🥰 The Boat has Three Decks and there are sun-loungers on top. We were given 7 seatings for 5 persons to accomodate the needs of the elderlies we were with. The Dining Area is spacious and clean. There are showers too. I have met many friends in the boat and danced! it felt like a club while cruising. The Drag Queen's Performance was amazing too. We were given life jackets so we could swim safely. And the places we went to are Paradise…”

7.Alanya City Highlights & Sunset Beach BBQ Party

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 87 reviews · from $35

See Alanya’s castle, Cleopatra Beach, Damlatas Cave, harbor, Red Tower, sunset views, BBQ dinner, and belly dancing in six hours.

“Booked in German, unfortunately no tour guide available for German. Jeep driver didn't even get a hello from his mouth, let alone any information. The cave is unfortunately only 1 room, so disappointment was great. It was not mentioned in the booking that you have to take the cable car up to the castle, which is very bad if you are afraid of heights. So we had to wait at the bottom until the other guests came back after sunset, which is exactly why we booked the tour. We then canceled the tour because of this. Unfriendly, no information, no German, facts are concealed... Conclusion: Big disappointment and not worth…”
