ALL-ACTION SIGHTSEEING ON A FAMILY ADVENTURE


A large resort isn’t the only way for clients to enjoy Turkey’s sporting scene. Adventure tour operators build activities into their itineraries – chiefly those set on the country’s Turquoise Coast, like the Southern Turkey: Active Family Adventure option from Exodus Adventure Travels, based in Kas. Guests will snorkel from a traditional gulet boat, kayak over a sunken ruined city and go canyoning (a swimming/abseiling combination) in the spectacular Kibris Canyon. There’s a free day where clients can chill out, explore Kas’s cafes and boutiques or add extra activities such as visiting a Turkish bath, while guests aged 14 and over can continue the adventure with scuba diving or


paragliding over Kas and its surrounding islands. Book it: The eight-day Southern Turkey: Active Family Adventure starts from £1,399 per adult and £1,049 per child, including accommodation and activities but not flights, departing October 26. exodus.co.uk
