Lycian Way


An early breakfast and soon Hasan was ferrying us across to Ucagiz to meet Dennis (Deniz) from Middle Earth travel who would drive us to Antalya airport. Dennis came tearing in somewhat late, but cheery and ready to whisk us away. We thanked Hasan, as we had thanked his wife, for their great hospitality, and were soon on our way.
Densis was great, pointing out landmarks on the way and stopping for photos when there was a tomb not too distant. Then we were sweeping along the road to Antalya, passing towns, a lagoon and resorts all along the coast. As it was Sunday the roads were quiet and we made amazing time, arriving in good time for our flight to Istanbul. Dennis made very quick farewells as he was off to catch up on some sleep before doing it all again in the evening! We checked in and then sat down for a coffee and some wonderful Turkish pumpkin dessert called Kabak Tatlisi. Then it was just travelling until we got back home just after midnight.It has been a really wonderful holiday and we hope for more visits to Turkey in future.
Middle Earth Travel, Dennis's company.
