About staying in Antalya City Center: Antalya's city centre blends a 2,000-year-old harbour quarter with a modern Mediterranean metropolis.

Nearby you'll find Hadrian's Gate, Kaleiçi Old Town, Yivli Minaret. Antalya Airport (AYT) sits about 13 km east of the city centre, roughly a 20-minute drive. The city is the transport hub for the whole coast, with a tram through the centre and bus links to every resort town. From our guides on the ground: A gentle nature day in Sapadere village — a walkway leads through the canyon past waterfalls, caves and natural pools, so it suits guests who want scenery without strenuous hiking. The walkway can be wet and slippery in places, so wear shoes with grip rather than flip-flops. The pools are very cold mountain water if you fancy a dip; bring a towel. Local village hospitality and lunch are part of the day. Great for families and seniors wanting a relaxed, photogenic outing.

Local tips

Traveller reviews
Sapadere Canyon was cooler, greener, and quieter than the coast, which made it a perfect break from beach days. The walkway was easy to follow, and the small waterfalls made every corner feel worth stopping for. The cave visit added variety, even though the canyon itself was my favorite part. Wear sensible shoes because some areas near the water are slippery.
The sound of the water and shade from the rocks made it feel completely different from Side.
Less famous than other places, but very charming and not too intense.
The road to Sapadere has some bends, so take motion sickness tablets if you need them. Once we arrived, the fresh air and clear water made the journey feel worthwhile. Lunch in the village was simple and friendly rather than fancy. I would have liked a little more time at the main waterfall, but overall it was a lovely nature day.
I liked the local feel of Sapadere village. It didn't feel like a staged stop.
I would have liked ten more minutes at the main waterfall, but the day was well planned.
