Mud Bath and Turtles
Fantastic day out with our guide Mehmet. Highly recommended. The mud bath is a hoot. The entire trip was truly a lovely experience.

Daylan River cruise
Bus picked us up from our Hotel as planned, they were on time, there were people complaining about the time spent on the bus already but as the trip started in Oludeniz it was only to be expected, Jesus our tour guide was very informative about Turkeye giving us lots if info as we made our way to the point where we picked up the boat. The whole experience was on a time schedule so at times it seemed a little rushed but it didn't mar the experience, the hydro pools were lovely we didn't partake in the mud baths, but other people seemed to enjoy them, lunch was nice, a choice of chicken fish, pasta or omelette with turkish salad and rice, the self service home made soup was delicious with bread, would recommend 😋, along the river Jesus was very informative again pointing out places of interest including the Lycian tombs, awesome, the last place we visited on the trip was Itzuzu beach to see the turtles, on route the guide picked up fresh crabs for us to feed the turtles, most of the crabs were eaten by the fish but we saw two turtles they were fantastic, not quick enough to photo though unfortunately, an hour and a half at the beach, my only gripe was in the price of the trip was entrance to the beach was included but we had to pay another 100tl, to the captain on the boat to supposedly be able to go to the toilet, the sunbeds and parasols you had to pay for so we never bothered only staying such a short period of time, then onward back down the river towards home, overall the day was a fantastic experience, the river was awesome and the guide was great.

This trip was not worth...
This trip was not worth the money. Due to winds, the boat was not able to take us to the thermal and mud baths. Instead, it took us to a closer one which was subpar, at best. The lunch was mediocre and we were taken to turtle beach and left, with nothing to do because the winds were so strong, for 1 1/2 hours and then froze on the way home. If the weather was good this trip would have been a 6/10 but because of the changes and the wind it was a 2/10.
Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that the weather conditions and strong winds negatively affected your tour experience. Unfortunately, for safety reasons, the boat route had to be changed on the day of the tour. We understand your disappointment regarding the alternative mud baths, the beach stop, and the overall experience. We also tried to contact you via WhatsApp after the tour and offered a refund as a gesture of goodwill, but unfortunately we did not receive a response. Our offer is still valid, and you are welcome to contact us anytime. Kind regards, Mobius Travel Team

Dalyan Day Trip with Mud Bath and Turtle Beach From Fethiye: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Fethiye.
How much does Dalyan Day Trip with Mud Bath and Turtle Beach From Fethiye cost?
+
Prices start at $58 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Fethiye usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Dalyan Day Trip with Mud Bath and Turtle Beach From Fethiye take?
+
Plan for about 10.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Fethiye is not rushed.
Is Dalyan Day Trip with Mud Bath and Turtle Beach From Fethiye worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 29 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Fethiye, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Dalyan Day Trip with Mud Bath and Turtle Beach From Fethiye?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Dalyan Day Trip with Mud Bath and Turtle Beach From Fethiye suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Dalyan Day Trip with Mud Bath and Turtle Beach From Fethiye?
+
Around 10 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Fethiye can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Fethiye and add a light layer if any part of the 10.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Dalyan Day Trip with Mud Bath and Turtle Beach From Fethiye start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Fethiye within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Fethiye?
+
On Outty we rank every Fethiye experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Oludeniz Paragliding Fethiye Turkey, Additional Features, Paragliding Oludeniz With Transfer - Fethiye, Turkey, 2 people buggy safari half day beach and forest drive. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Fethiye?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Fethiye?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
